Efficient and compact CPU cooler

Through trial and error, I found that this Argon Series CPU cooler was the perfect solution for my overheating issues .The 120mm cooling fan works silently and effectively keeping my computer running smoothly. The compact size fits well in my mid-tower case, without obstructing other components. However, installation WAS a bit tricky and required some additional effort to ensure proper installation. Overall, I highly recommend this cooler for its efficient performance..

Pros
  • Effective cooling performance for a variety of CPU socket types
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with non-Intel CPUs

Do not recommend this cooler!

After I put it to the test, I was extremely disappointed with its performance. The only positive aspect was its easy installation. However, it failed to keep my CPU temperature down and was much louder than expected. Save your money and invest in a better option..

Pros
  • easy installation
Cons
  • poor performance, loud noise

Low profile that works

I just install this cooler on my HTPC. It's a perfect match with the low-profile memory in the Silverstone ML08b. It is installed on a discontinued 8700k that has also been lapped. In the stock stress test, the processor reached 85 degrees Celsius with mx4 thermal paste. I overclocked it to 4.7 and during the stress test it reaches high temperatures of 9395.

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • boring packaging
