Review on CPU cooler PCcooler GI-X5 V2, silver/black/red by Adam Listopad ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

I bought this cooler half a year ago, maybe a little more. I had it on an old 4-core intel core 2 quad on socket 775. But suddenly, a month ago, I decided to upgrade to a 1200 socket and an i7 11700. I thought this cooler would not cope and I would have to buy something more expensive, YouTube is full of videos in which they all say that the 11th generation of Intel is hot and needs to be installed big coolers or dropsy. But it turns out not, this cooler copes quite well with itself. And in games, in heavy scenes, it does not heat up above 76 degrees (cyberpunk, horizon, mortal kombat, etc.), on average it keeps 58 - 67 degrees. By the way vidyuha Nvidia gtx 1080, on the processor arctic mx5 thermal paste and the case is practically not blown. Very quiet fan, at maximum speed you can only hear the air flow. Some write that it would be better if two half tubes were one whole, I disagree, the area of ​​\u200b\u200bcontact with the processor, due to these halves, is larger, respectively, to remove heat from the processor, it will turn out more. Pleased with the purchase. It's a pity there is no second set of fan-to-radiator mounts. The Thermaltake Versa N25 fits perfectly in the case, another centimeter and a half to the side cover.

Pros
  • Price, performance, silence.
Cons
  • There are no additional wire mounts for a second fan. The sole is poorly processed, it was necessary to grind on fine sandpaper.
