Really smooth and does the job well.

Good. It's completely silent and keeps my non-overclocked card at a whopping 30-35°C. I have a windowless R5 AtX fractal with cages removed and fans stock. All in all, after playing around with the settings and my fan speed in my mobos bios, I found the optimal manual setting with maximum cooling depending on the audio performance. The thing does its job well. The only difficulty was the installation. READ the instructions and take your time. It took me a while to play around with the plates…

Oozes Good Engineering

Doesn't block much RAM on my Mini-ITX board, about half a millimeter remains. My board is on the be quiet, check yours compatibility list. Fun Fact: This cooler can run a fanless Pentium Gold processor: 37 idle / 69 full load. With fan in silent mode PWM: 36 idle / 50 full load.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Fits

Attention AM4 designers

I'm eager to build all my "be quiet!" machines for my Ryzen system. Case, fan, power supply and CPU cooler. I knew in advance that I would need an AM4 kit and the support team was quick to respond. Although it was sent from Germany, I received the parts in no time. I have no doubt it would have been a killer cooler, but I wasn't happy to learn that the kit forced me to mount the cooler so that the fan could only be directed upwards and not from the back of the case to the exhaust fan. Let the…

  • An absolute legend

  • Frequency

Great balance between looks, price and performance.

This cooler is compact and very well built. The aluminum finish on the top complements the metal/silver body and beautifully creates a clean, sleek and industrial look. Cooling performance is acceptable - it's on par with the Hyper 212 Evo and performs better than my Corsair H75 liquid cooling without the added noise. In terms of value for money, it performs better than the Cryorig H7, costs a few euros more and looks significantly better than the Noctua coolers, albeit a little cheaper. I…

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • No mold required

I wish I had bought this many years ago.

I finally got tired of the CPU fan noise and bought this cooler. In a word, it's amazing. My processor is as cool as ever (maybe even cooler) with negligible noise levels. It works great. It should be noted that this is not a simple "unplug the old cooler, plug in the new" setup. This involves unscrewing the existing cooler bracket from the motherboard and installing a new bracket with a couple of screws from the bottom of the motherboard. If your case doesn't give you full access to the area…

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • Upgradeable
