Review on πŸ’¨ Antec A30 CPU Cooler with 92mm LED Fan for Intel LGA 775/1150/1151/1155/1156 & AMD Socket FM1/AM3/AM3+/AM2+/AM2/AM4 by Adam Abner

Suitable for old am3 connectors! You don't have to change anything. The idle temperature is 20C!

Fits old AM3 connectors! That's great! See my photos. It's compact and powerful! Just two straight copper tubes, but that's ok. I have a HD p7-1010 with a Foxconn 2AB1 mobo. This is probably the only cool fan/heatsink that would fit in my case and phone. I am very happy that I received this. On my Phenom II X6 1065T, the standby temperature is 20 degrees. At 75% load, the CPU temperature reached 35/38 °C, which is amazing. The only criticism is that the fans run at a maximum speed of 1700 rpm. Although even my case fan spins at a maximum of 2500 rpm. So I'll probably buy a better fan for it, and it might also be a problem to install it in a tight space if you're using am3 connectors. I wish it had the old clamshell latch like a stock radiator. but I'm definitely happy with the pace it's keeping. And it looks very cool 😎 Anyway, if you have an old PC with an old am3 connector, it's enough. Just make sure the dimensions fit your case and phone. I only have about five and a half inches of height clearance. And the A30 is just under five inches tall.
