The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

Bought because of 140mm turntable and appearance. There is a cheaper copy of it, this is the ICE HAMMER IH-480 model made under license from Thermalright

Pros
  • 1. Titled brand 2. Inexpensive 3. Compact (fits into 170mm cases, does not interfere with the RAM and video card) 4. 140mm turntable means silence. 5. It probably cools well, it's just that my processor itself is cold and not overclockable. 30 degrees i5 8400, paste from the kit, applied to the finger and smeared. 6. Impressive look, practical black plastic at the fan, the last plate is painted, nickel-plated copper tubes, the logo is cut through - la sweat for cases with a transparent wall.
Cons
  • 1. When installing, I had to scratch my forehead and look into the instructions. 2. Direct tube contact.

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Well, what can I say? I probably spent more than one hour installing it, but this is not a minus for the cooler, but a minus for me and my inexperience. For earlier I used only coolers on Intel legs. What I want to say: i7 3770k with overclocking to 4.2 GHz, this monster (in the good sense of the word) in Assassin's Creed Odyssey keeps within 70 degrees.

Pros
  • Low noise Huge heatsinks and fan Possibility to install a second fan High RAM compatible
Cons
  • did not reveal

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

Quiet normal, I'll put a P7 3700x on it, but if there is a little space, take the 140 Power version better! 4 put because of the fastening of the turntable

Pros
  • Quiet, stock AMD RYZEN 5 1600 after several hours of playing heavy games at 47-50 degrees, MX 4 thermal paste, I expected a little better, the Aerocool LS 5200 case entered normally to the wall another 2 centimeters.
Cons
  • Installing the fan is very inconvenient and flimsy!

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I wrote what happened exactly on my system unit. Results may be different for other people. It depends on your PC, what processor, what case you have, what ventilation and what thermal paste, and much more. Also, do not forget that the cooler may not be suitable for a certain case, so be careful. Thank you all for your attention! Pros: Let's start with the pros 1. Silence. It is practically inaudible. In silence, you can hear it, but the sound is very quiet and will not even wake the child. 2…

I bought this unit for the second system after the previous Thermalright TRUE Spirit 140 Power, which cooled the Phenom xII 955be, went up and began to cool the new system based on the R5 2600. The old 955be lives perfectly under this cooler, direct contact technology in the case of AMD works fine. The temperature indicators remained good, even if they changed by 2 degrees upwards, which is not critical for overclocking. This is a consequence of the smaller area of ​​​​the plates and - 1 heat…

Pros
  • 1. Support for most sockets, except for 478 and 939 (decided by ing) 2. Performance. 3. Complete set. 4. Workmanship. 5. Ability to install 2 fans. 6. Good price-quality ratio relative to competitors. 7. Fixing at the same time with the base, greatly simplifies the installation. 8. Quiet and efficient 140mm fan included 9. 161mm height allows installation in the vast majority of midi tower cases.
Cons
  • 1. Anti-vibration rubber bands. 2. The tubes on the sole have a gap between them. 3. The number of pipes is 5 versus 6 for the older brother.

I took it under ryzen 5 1600 - idle temperatures are 30 - 32 degrees, under load (LinX test) it warms up to 60-63 (processor overclocked to 3.8 GHz voltage 1.3 temperature in the room 23 degrees, thermal paste Arctic Cooling MX-4 ) I did not adjust the fan speed, on standard settings the speed is ~ 400 in idle, ~ 900 under load. In general, a good cooler is quiet and relatively compact, suitable for not very extreme overclocking.

Pros
  • 1) Simple and reliable fastening. 2) Very quiet, even under load. 3) Dimensions for a 140mm cooler, does not block the slots for RAM, should fit into most cases (better to measure first).
Cons
  • Large gaps between the heat pipes at the point of contact with the processor, respectively, the heat removal area is not as large as we would like, poor polishing.
