Review on CPU cooler Deepcool GAMMAXX 200T, blue by Micha Skolimowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

General: I put 4 points only for the price and silence (there is a 4-pin for speed control). I took it to replace the old boxed cooler from Intel, intel made noise like an airplane with a 3-pin (without speed control). Installation: It is a pity that the mount is not completely metal, they could have finished it. I installed a plastic on the board, began to try on the radiator by eye. I saw that the fixing metal clip, which is the largest of the two, does not fit - it rests on the power supply unit on top of the system unit. I had to unscrew the metal retainer of the radiator - it is held on by 4 bolts. I turned the metal latch 180 degrees and the large clip turned not to the top (power supply), but to the bottom, to the video card. In general, shoved the radiator wide. I could not see if the radiator plane completely covered the processor after turning the metal latch, because. met. latch is not symmetrical. At first I tried to unfold the fan and found out that the radiator plates are very thin - they bend easily, and, as it turned out, the fan is one-sided fixation. Returned as it was. Temperature: I took it for the E8400 core duo. The temperature at startup is 34-40 degrees, during operation 42-50. I did a stress test for a couple of minutes CPU-Z, managed to warm up to 54-55 degrees. Spinning somewhere at 850-950 rpm. In addition to the paste applied to the percent, I added my own - MX-4. In silence, I can say that it makes noise along with the power supply and it’s hard to distinguish whose noise. If you bring your ear close, an unusual sound is heard from the fan. In the distance, it rustles like a normal fan. I compared a laptop running in energy-saving mode 3610QM, the laptop is quieter. If you put a load on the laptop, then it makes noise louder than the system unit with the Gamma 200T, the system unit has enough minimum speed. Compared E8400 core duo + 200T quieter or work at the same level than 4770K + Noctuna NH-D14. The temperature at 4770K + NH-D14 is about 28 in idle and under load, not to lie, - less than 60 (51-59) degrees. Maybe there were more indicators, but I describe what was most noticed.

Pros
  • - price - quiet - design (you can deploy the metal radiator retainer)
Cons
  • - flimsy - construction (metal fixing clip is not turned in the right direction)
