Review on Cryorig H7 Tower CPU Cooler by Chris Beals

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good cooling but fiddly to install

I took this cooler and used it in my new gaming build and it seems to cool very well but there are a few major issues. Firstly, the installation is simple but very difficult. I recommend removing the heatsink fan first so you can see the bracket better when lining up the screw holes. Many coolers these days have a much simpler assembly process, and it's a shame this H7 isn't one of them. It fits nicely in my case (Fractal Meshify C) and has enough room to easily install memory later - my MB is an Aorus Pro Wifi LGA 1151. Noise levels are rock solid when idling and can get pretty loud under heavy loads, but that it's not bad, and most sounds are muted when the case is closed. Overall this is a good cooler for the money but I found the installation process very frustrating and I suggest having someone help you with the installation if possible.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Nothing
