Review on Cooler Master T6PN 218PC R1 πŸ’» CPU Cooling Solution with Enhanced Pipe Support by Lokesh Das

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Hotter and louder than my Hyper 212 for twice the price.

This cooler has never worked for me. One of the fans was making a loud intermittent noise and my temperatures were unusually hot. I've tried reinstalling the fans and radiator myself and even replacing the thermal paste with a different brand. Nothing improved the temperature. My Ryzen 1700 runs at 3.7GHz at 1.2V. Not only was this cooler a lot louder than the Hyper 212 it replaced, it was also 7 degrees hotter under full load! I have no idea how a cooler with 6 heat pipes and two fans can be noisier and hotter than a cooler with 4 heat pipes and one fan that has a much smaller surface area. They are even made by the same company. At first I was blown away by the performance and RGB style this cooler offered and I may have just gotten a bad one, but there isn't much in these coolers and this one totally exceeded my expectations. I sent it back because of the loud fan noise.
