Review on CPU cooler Deepcool GAMMA ARCHER PRO, black by Bogdan Andreev ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am very happy with this purchase, I will advise everyone!

Took for HTPC, working 24/7, so the main selection criterion was the noise level. The purchase is completely satisfied. Installed on Core i3 Ivi Bridge. The computer is used in parallel as a file server and a terminal server, so the load goes up to 100%. The fan is never audible, neither at idle nor at 100% load. Not quiet, but really not audible from the body at all. You can't even hear if the rotation speed is changing (visually changing). Copes with cooling at 5+. In idle, the temperature of the processor is about 35 degrees, with a long 100% load it is not 50-55 degrees (the thermal paste from the kit was used). The installation is really extremely inconvenient, I had to disassemble the entire computer, including dismantling the memory modules, and unscrew the motherboard from the case. I also had to (not necessarily, but more conveniently) disassemble the cooler itself. But this is done once, you can survive, for that then we enjoy for several years! The undoubted advantage is also that all this fits on a mini-ITX motherboard without interfering with memory modules (low-profile DIMMs without heatsinks). Only the expansion slot turned out to be completely blocked (there will be no overlap on mATX).

Pros
  • Silence Large radiator size with low profile. With a margin breaks into the slim-Desktop.
Cons
  • Installation method
