Review on CPU cooler Deepcool GAMMAXX S40, black by Boyan Popov ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

In terms of temperatures, fx 6300 without overclocking is simple 25-30g, the load is not more than 60. Xeon e5 1650 is simple 40, the load is 65-75. (With the same thermal paste and test in aide64).

I have attached some photos to my review to provide a more comprehensive overview of my experience.

Pros
  • Not a high price, decent appearance, not noisy and looks adequate.
Cons
  • Among the shortcomings can be identified fan. It is not serviced, after 2-2.5 years it began to make noise (shorting, slight vibrations, hum), after which a hole was carefully drilled in the back and oil was poured there, it helped quite a bit, as a result, I still had to replace it with two 92mm fans. In addition, the complete fan has non-standard dimensions, the distance between the holes is 92mm, and the impeller is slightly smaller than that of the 120th fan, as a result, installing a 92mm fan will not be as efficient (or noisier), and the 120th is too large and it looks quite , protruding beyond the radiator (although you can attach it quite neatly). In general, I'm not sure that there is an analogue for this price, but in my opinion, it's better to look for a cooler in which you can later replace the fan with a standard 120 without unnecessary trouble (Same Gammax 400). P. S As you can see from the photo, the standard fan is disassembled according to only one principle.
