Review on Vetroo L5 Black CPU Air Cooler: Low Profile Design for AMD Ryzen AM4/Intel LGA1200 115X – Advanced Cooling with 5 Heatpipes and 120mm Quiet PWM Fan by Jason Flippen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very important! - Computer and accessories

Product works well, Ryzen 5 5600x dropped almost 25 degrees at full load in combination with Kryonaut thermal paste. Installation was easy, went smoothly and looks great on my system. The color is well applied, the RGB works as expected. After about 1 month of ownership, the fan started making noise, although initially it was absolutely silent. Looks simple enough to be replaced with any 120mm fan, so at this price point it's forgivable. Also, the mounting system of this cooler is a bit sketchy; No mounting plate is used, just four screws with washers to protect the motherboard. When you install this on my Asus Rog B-550 F mobo, it's partially obscured by some fancy glowing RAM. The good news is that it matches gskill trinity neo ram but as we all know less visible rgb means less fps. For the money, this cooler can't be beat. I get much cooler temps than with the stock cooler/thermal paste at full CPU load, the light looks good and the powder coating is chip resistant and looks great. The attachment system is the biggest downside; it works, it just looks cheap. My fan is already a bit noisy after only 1 month of use, but it outperforms my standard AMD cooler and adds more needed $30 RGBS. Combine that with some good thermal paste and you're good to go.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • old
