Review on 🌬️ Enhanced Cooling Solution for ASUS GT/RT-AC5300: GDSTIME Rounter TV Box Cooling Fan with Speed Control by Chris Cervantes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works as it should

I had "problems" with the internet and the Spectrum came to my house twice. On the first visit they replaced part of the coax and on the second visit they replaced more of the coax and gave me a new cable modem. The tech also suggested I try new Ethernet cables, so I ordered the latest and greatest CAT8 I could find and replaced all my cables. The problems didn't go away and in my "Troubleshooting" section I read about temperatures and decided to give it a try. Before running these fans, my router showed my 2.4 GHz radio at 127 degrees, my 5 GHz radio at 135 degrees, and my processor at 172 degrees. My temp after these fans are placed under the router and blown up (can I consider changing them to blow from the top?) the temp is 102 degrees for the 2.4Ghz radio , 115 degrees for the 5 GHz radio and 117 degrees for the CPU . I'd say it's worth it, even if it seems overkill. Please note that my fan speed is quite low as there is some noise at higher speeds, mainly vibration. I think if I'm sitting on a wooden shelf maybe a rubber mat or something more could be put under the fans and solve the problem.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great price
