Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (parts): 1 year
Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (labor): 1 year
Rosewill offers "the best choice in value" with a range of CPU coolers that offer high end features and performance at value prices. The FORT120 offers features found on many more expensive coolers. It has 4 large exposed 8mm pure copper heatpipes at its base which directly contact the CPU for highly efficient thermal conduction, plus 6 pillars to increase heat transfer and strengthen the cooler structure.
A 120mm 7-bladed fan is attached vertically to the array of hi-grade aluminum fins. It blows an impressive 99 CFM of cooling air at a maximum 2300 RPM. PWM functionality lets the computer automatically adjust the fan's speed to as low as 700 RPM depending on thermal need which will reduce its already quiet 30 dBA noise signature to even lower levels.
The FORT120 is compatible with all single- and multi-core CPUs for Intel's Socket 775/1366 and AMD’s Socket /AM2+/AM2/754/939. All the clips and backplates are included so there's nothing else to buy to get the unit attached to your motherboard in minutes.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great Cooling, A little loud maybe for some but not for me : ) Keeps my E8500 @ 4.25 cool. 38C idle/58C Load with Prime 95 running Small FTT's. I can take voltage up to 1.45 in bios before cpu will hit 70C under load. Currently @ 1.368 in bios.
Cons: Instruction seemed a little incomplete to me. No real instruction on how to apply the thermal paste to direct touch heatsink.
Other Thoughts: Running Gigabyte DS3L. Thinking about getting the DFI LP LT X48-T2R for the Crossfire and more OC headroom. The cooler is awesome.

Pros: Cools well. Sturdy construction, comes with all necessary brackets/clips. Keeps my Phenom II 955 (@1.40V) around 45 degrees idle and peaks at 62 degrees with an ambient temp of 30 degrees.
Cons: The bottom seemed a little rough compared to my old Zalman 9500 cooler, may have to lap it. The fan may be too loud for some.
Other Thoughts: Wanted to get a Xigmatek HDT cooler but it was the wrong orientation for my case and would have messed up the direction of airflow. This is a good alternative.

Pros: Price and Performance, First day out of the box and onto an AM3 Phenom II x4 955 steady running temps around 38c overclocked to 3.7GHz. Max temps below 45 on first day prior to the thermal paste setting.
Cons: Its a LITTLE big, but fits well in a standard case, Id recommend getting another high flow fan for the back just to kick it a little harder up.
Other Thoughts: Perfect and stable, large so no huge spikes in temp and fits AM3 like a dream out of the box. Well worth the investment

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Upgraded everything on my computer and needed the cooling power. Keeps my AMD Phenom x4 9750 under 40c Under a full load. I am reading about the fan being too loud for some and I find this untrue. The fan is very quiet for the size and RPMs.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: I wasn't expecting it to be as big as it is, but thats ok, because I have the room for it in my tower, but Like I said, I needed the cooling power and am hesitant to go with liquid cooling. I think it looks great thought the clear acrylic sideview of my tower.

Pros: Q9550@3.4GHz idle temp around 30c (T-case) Max @ 57c running Prime95, Direct Touch Heat Pipes, Motherboard back plate and thumb screws provide firm contact with CPU, Cannot hear this fan over semi-noisy, 4890 vga fan. Fits inside my Enermax Staray case (mid tower) after removing top side panel 120mm fan.
Cons: Contact surface not polished, Instructions may as well not have been included with tiny illustrations, seemingly poorly translated Chinese and steps lacked detail.
Other Thoughts: I lapped the contact surface of the heatsink to a mirror finish and used AS Ceramique. I am a firm believer in Direct touch, 120mm CPU coolers if you OC and don't use water. I'm getting more and more Rosewill stuff and so far it works like it should.
