Review on Grand Macho RT Fan TY 147B by Michal Adach ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Despite the slightly spoiled effect of the installation of this miracle - the radiator is just BURNING (not in terms of heating your iron, of course: D). A little story for you: I am a very big fan of silence (any extra sound or noise literally infuriates me) and this radiator was very useful for me! And why? The answer is simple - semi-passive mode (thanks to the cooler current control in bios), I configured it so that at temperatures up to 60 ° C the cooler simply turns off. This allows you to both sit in silence and play powerful games in the same silence. \O/ Thus - the computer is audible only if you really want to (sometimes a barely audible HDD WD Red 4TB 5400rpm lets you down with:) And friends! It is important if you want your car to be silent too - all other components must also correspond to the level (for example, a "Corsair RM" class PSU or similar). This is worth a lot, but if you are an esthete and are ready to "overpay for quality", then your system will delight you endlessly =) Definitely APPROVED to this cooling system. I hope that you were interested in this feature (and my short story in general) because I have not seen anywhere that they write that it is possible to organize such an interesting technical step with semi-passive cooling (the main thing is that your board supports the cooler voltage control mode, otherwise it will you have ~ 350 rpm for a constant, which, incidentally, is also pretty good in terms of silence). For your information - the 8600k processor (normal overclocking mode) at idle (~45-48°), under load of ~50-80% (~62-68°) at ~600-800 rpm. And yes - many are surprised: "- Why is your cooler not spinning ?!" :D Thanks again for reading this spontaneous stream of thought. Smear the thermal paste in an even thin layer and do not get sick :3

Pros
  • Very massive, solid, efficient and spectacular radiator. Bravo! It copes with cooling perfectly, it is made with high quality, and the manufacturer did not regret with the bundle (here you have a tube of branded paste, and even a screwdriver - a trifle, as they say, but it's nice after all) - you can immediately see that you are buying a top product. Thoughtful "shift back" - also helps in cooling and does not overlap the RAM. The cooler is quite quiet up to half of its speed, here everyone has a different concept of "silence", to whom it will seem quite quiet even at maximum speed, don't blame me :)
Cons
  • There are a few little things - the installation is rather peculiar and not everyone can do it without instructions / video guide. Okay, with her with this installation . Cooler . Or rather, its fastening: it seems that everything that could go wrong - went! Of all the possible options for mounting the cooler, they chose the most clumsy one. I doubt very much that the cooler can be put on / removed without disconnecting the heatsink itself from the motherboard. Touche!
