What a great cooler for the price! This cooler has to be the simplest tower cooler I've installed and I've installed several. I wish all coolers were that easy to install! With ARBG lighting, very good cooling, easy installation, and good looks, this cooler is hard to beat at almost any price point, let alone under $30. The only other cooler I've had that compares in the categories mentioned is the Uphere cooler, which looks similar but is no longer available in the ARBG variant from me. The only thing left to buy is the rainbow-lit version, and since it costs about the same as this cooler, this cooler wins with an ARGB fan, is slightly cheaper, and is even easier to install. This cooler seems to handle high overclocks on the 9th gen i5 9600k with no issues. At this price point, it's amazing to keep temperatures at or below 74C while overclocking to 4.9GHz with 100% load on all cores. I would say that on an i7 or higher, or a Ryzen 7 and higher, this cooler can have a hard time maintaining low temperatures when overclocked. However, I believe this cooler will have no problems at stock speeds until maybe an i9 or Ryzen 9 processor is installed. Even if it's stock, it might work with those processors too. The price is worth it if you're on a budget or just looking for a good looking cooler and don't want to spend more than $50 for one as this cooler rivals most air coolers in this price range. All these single tower coolers like the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo seem to have very similar performance from what I've seen. As I mentioned earlier I have used several and all single tower, single fan and 4 heat pipe coolers are very similar in performance. This one looks better than the CM 212 Evo ARGB cooler in my opinion and is a better buy due to its lower price. If you're looking for a single tower cooler with a single fan, then it's definitely worth buying. The fan spins at a maximum speed of 1700 RPM, which is definitely enough to keep almost any standard desktop processor cool.
