Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Has pros: good cooling properties - up to 300 watts. took specifically for i9 11900 cool cooler lighting - controlled by msi rgb light coolers are not loud the radiator is huge Different cons: I didn’t like the msi z490 a pro mother and there are power supply circuit radios and because of this it was not possible to install a second cooler on staff. and I liked that the wires from the coopers cannot be hidden

Nice price, good quality.

Assembly: amd ryzen 7 5800x, mother as rock X570 Pg velocita, video card 1050 ti 4 GB, power supply be quiet 850 wt gold. In the future I plan to add 3060. The thing is great money, big fans fit in their own small case

Pros
  • Good cooling is suitable for stones with 7 or more from both amd and Intel. The ability to put the fans at a comfortable height
Cons
  • Height 165 is written, in fact it is better to take a stock of 10mm + -, it conflicts with RAM. The complexity of the assembly is to remove the mount on the motherboard and put a unique mount on the bottom, you also need to assemble the fan yourself, but this is a matter of technology and an understanding of how to do it.

Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

With its pros: Can be pulled out at a very cheap price. In English-language tests, it competes, and in some places it is an order of magnitude better than the top solutions from Noctua and beQuiet! Cons: Controversial design, but I'm fine. Be careful when choosing sticks of RAM and case.

Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

Cooler was really impressed. Ryzen 9 5950x cools stably at 4 GHz, the temperature at full load last special rose only to 63. At home, of course, from Split +23 In games with full HD, I did not see more than 55% of the load. The backlight is powered by the motherboard. But I do not need it, it is disabled programmatically. Fans are not audible. Overall happy with the purchase. I chose everything between air-cooled and free. The second and more expensive if the firm, and there are problems /…

Pros
  • Cools well Cheaper than SVO Not difficult installation
Cons
  • Slightly interferes with the ddr bar with a radiator There is no way to install what would blow vertically. There is a larger fan on top of the case than on the back.

Everything is fine, I liked the product, I bought it for a reason.

The kit lacked the most important screw - the screw for attaching the tower to the base. Then it turned out that it does not fit correctly on the motherboard, rests with the tube on the power rail radiator on the mother ASRock Z490 Taichi. I don’t know whose jamb this is, but it can only be placed on the mother in such a way that the air flow is directed vertically and it is not possible to put a video card in the first slot. Naturally, the air flow will be directed inefficiently. Besides. in…

Pros
  • Appearance, for which I bought it. Build quality.
Cons
  • Equipment. Dimensions.

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

If not this minus, then everything else is excellent. Of course, it was possible to make directional fans with the same impeller (that is, with a face along the contour to direct the flow, I think the efficiency would be higher). And of course, it's disappointing that engineers have become less attentive, since top-end motherboards, which are very expensive, should be suitable for top-end coolers without any problems.

Pros
  • An excellent cooler performs at the level of the legendary Noctua NH-D15 even better in some scenarios. Effortlessly removes heat from the 5900X
Cons
  • I did not like that it does not fit the Gigabyte X570 Auros Extrem motherboard. Wrote a letter to those support promised to send additional. mount and things are still there. I had to bend the edges of the mount to shove it onto the back of the motherboard.
