I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

The two-cooler mount and rubber washers were included in the package. But for me, just the one will do. 55–60 degrees is optimal for gaming in BF5 (am settings). At full capacity of 80. Nothing both trolls and reliably functions.

Pros
  • Superb for relaxing. For the i5 11500, I installed a cooler master q300l (159mm). Since taller coolers wouldn't fit, this one was used instead, and it has five heat pipes for added efficiency. You can fit all 4 dice in the slots because they do not overlap, even if you have a huge radiator. In the stress test with the restrictions disabled and a 200-watt graphics card being cooked, the cooler successfully dissipates 120 watts. Naturally, such a load can only be in stress tests, since the processor does not generate more than 75 watts in typical tasks (gaming). The purchase has met my expectations.
Cons
  • The wire is too short, so I bent it and secured it so that it wouldn't dangle awkwardly. A tube of stock thermal paste could look dry and unused. It resembles a soft thermal pad in texture. I heated it in the dryer and spread it on in an even layer using the bag. All OK, the weather's fine. I have no intention of altering my viewpoint.

The product disappointed, does not meet the promises.

With the purchase, I'm not happy. There would be no questions if the person was noname from alik. However, they distribute this, a branded and pricey product from a reputable company. I had to purchase thermal paste and a few synchronously operating coolers at 2.2k rpm in order to boost performance and give up silent.

Pros
  • The tower itself was fastened with care and reliability. Cooler installation is simple. brackets for mounting an additional fan.
Cons
  • 1. A minor, bearable whistling from the fan that originates from the electric motor rather than the fan blades. 2. Very inefficient; despite what appears to be an abundance of tubes, the radiator itself is hardly heated and the temperature under the CPU's cover is already 75 degrees (rizen 2700x, without overclocking, with an open and closed case). I added a second fan as an experiment, but it had no noticeable impact. (Solution in the Comment). 3. Inappropriate and outdated thermal paste was present. Squeezed out is a coating of excellent rubber mass that cannot even be smeared. very little heat conductivity.
