Review on CPU cooler PCcooler GI-X5 V2, silver/black/red by Mateusz Grzesiak  (M ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm satisfied, the product is exactly as described.

at maximum speed it buzzes a bit, it’s comfortable at 90%, but I have the lid open and the computer is right under me, it cools well, but my previous one, to my surprise, is even better. it turned out that I exchanged 6 heat pipes for 4 and a half, and my cooler was one of the top ones 10 years ago, even in terms of weight there is a difference. I changed it because the fan was loosened in the past and I thought that technologies had made a significant step forward during this time, but not) I decided to buy a new valve for the old cooler, if I change the socket, I will also buy fasteners, but the new one is no longer needed. I'm very glad I was able to return it. difference in max. the temperature of the cores in the aida test between the old and the new (the old one is better) is somewhere around 6-7 degrees (75-69 cycles). funny, nowhere on the sites is it written that there is support for the 1366 socket, but it is.

Pros
  • + support for different sockets + seems to be inexpensive (I took it for 1575r for a promotion) + complete thermal paste seems to be good
Cons
  • - little hum - the metal is not the densest
