Life Saving - Internals

I bought my son a new water cooler to keep his gaming system quieter. I didn't know Ryzen models below 2700x came with bolt-on coolers. Apparently my wife ruined the box and clip-on adapter that came with the motherboard so I needed a new one. This guy is solid and a great replacement!

Pros
  • Heatsink
Cons
  • Requires outlet

Perfect and Blue: Fan and Cooling

Exactly what I needed after getting used to mobo on ebay but lacked the brackets I needed to install a water cooler. Many Thanks.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Long Wait

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good but not great.

Suitable for cheap replacement. The female screw posts/holes on the corner are slightly shorter than the original screws that originally came with the board. The radiator I used has notches to put it on. The aftermarket AM4 backplate was flush with the surface of the board. Need longer screws due to height difference. It's probably good if you use a standard heatsink with a clip-on mount instead of screws.

Pros
  • Fan and Cooling
Cons
  • Approx.
