I didn't want the added complexity and points-of-failure for an AIO so I took a chance on this air cooler. Works great on a Ryzen 7 9800X3d. And it's perfect in a Fractal Design R5 case which has a large opening in the side of the metal case for the GPU exhaust - none of the glass cases for me, I built a tool, not a work of art with all the glitzy flashing LEDs the kiddies like!

-Is cpu cooler - Thermal paste included


This is a serious cooler! I don't overclock and it has no problems keeping my Ryzen 9 cool even when running CPU-intensive tasks like video editing. The cooler is well designed and installation was straightforward. All the needed hardware (including a screwdriver) is provided for either Intel or AMD CPUs. I followed the hints by others and installed the CPU and cooler on the motherboard outside the case. The instructions are thorough and easy to follow.

Small and affective

Runs beautifully for my budget build has zero problems gaming wise ( I mainly play rust which is a cpu heavy game)

-Price -Easy to install (AMD 4/5) -Nearly as good as Noctua (1-2 degrees less) -Quiet

EXCELLENT AIR COOLER ITS A BIT LARGE TAKES PART ON TOP OF THE RAMS BUT THE COOLING ITS AWESOME INCLUDES 2 FANS AND A VERY LARGE AIRSINK AND ALSO HAS PREAPPLIED THERMAL PASTE RIGHT OUT THE BOX.

- 280W dissipation

-Great for somebody on a budget. -Cheap and looks great. - Great thermals over a stock AMD cooler

- Pre applied paste - AM4 mount right out of the box - Easy to mount Fan


Very cool and low noise



Keeps my 5800x very cool

-Very effective at keeping the CPU cool in a demanding workload. -Great customer service.

- excellent cooling - easy to install - easy to clean - cools my 5950X and 3950X builds nicely sub 30 C

Drop my computer temperature from idling at 90C(bad stock CPU fan) to idling at around 40C after installation. it also includes a tube of thermal paste in it.

Last time I bought one of these must have been for an AM Socket 2 CPU. Was about 2/3rds the size of this one for AM 4. It fit in the new case by about 1/2" and gets barely warm to the touch when the system is running. Lots of heat dissipation for sure.
