The quality is top as usual.

Two of them are built in the Enthoo Primo case and they are a perfect match. specifically the bottom one. Literally fits in the gap in less than a millimeter. The top of the Primo case can comfortably hold 480 if you want a little more. I tucked some cables in the top of the optical bay so I chose 360 on top. Flush this radiator when you buy one. Alphacool is notorious for leaving some flux/garbage in its heatsinks. None of mine had too much but still enough and I was glad I flushed before the…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Extra Thicc is the best in the Computers & Accessories category

Install it on the bottom of my Phanteks Enthoo 719. As you can see it's a fat boy. I have 3 radars, a 60mm thick, a 45mm thick and a thin 25mm wheel. My Ryzen 9 3900XT OC processor is clocked at 4.3GHz, all cores and undervolted to 1.28MHz, and with these 3 Wheel it runs at around 40C and under gaming load around 55C. Cinebench loads are slightly larger and it jumps to around 60-65C. Would it make a difference to have a less fat wheel on the bottom ? Probably no. As an addendum, for some reason

Pros
  • It's great
Cons
  • Some bugs

Great heatsink but one of the connectors is leaking

I love the heatsink and it works fantastic but I have to take a star off because one of the connectors that came with it was leaking and had to be replaced.

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • Reliability

Its performance is amazing. But I deduct a point for that.

That's a beast! Its performance is amazing. However, I'm confusing for several reasons: - The coloring is rubbish. It breaks off at the first contact with anything metallic on the surface. The fins are thin and very fragile. ONE TUBE! Even with the "screw guard" they are right below the screw holes. It's easy to slide the tube in or out, so you don't have to worry about punctures. screws! They use a special hex head bolt with a conical bottom. It makes no sense. Perfect cooler, apart from these

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some change

Great for single fan

They are made for ONE fan and have a low fin density which is perfect for 1 fan but I wanted to use a push pull and it won't even help 1% when I have that desired fin density use was specified in the product specifications

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Style 90

Keeps beauty and cool

Keeps beauty and cool. However, my only real complaint is that there isn't enough mounting hardware. I had to invent pucks to put it all together. If you have extra screws or don't mind going to the store, this heatsink is perfect.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Weight

Thick but soft. on Computers & Accessories

For the price of a car radiator, this radiator should be well packaged and the fins should be in good condition upon arrival. Mine went through the FedEx dialer but that shouldn't be a problem. If there was packaging foam between the packaging box and the product box, I would probably leave it 5/5. I'm sorry but he's coming back. I can't have a heatsink that fails the leak test with a float of more than a ton of electronics. Bought from a seller starting with ModMy

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • There are nuances

Cool heatsink, fins are quite brittle

Cool heatsink, fins are quite brittle, packaging is excellent. I noticed that the outer case was a bit more boxy than I expected. There have been reports of poor paintwork, but mine looks as expected. This is a good fat radiator at a decent price from supplier Revain who has the best terms.

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • No machine
