  The best cooling solution I have ever used in my 30+ years of working with computers. Besides its effective cooling on the Ryzen 2700, I have not seen temperatures above 52 degrees while gaming. Even though there is a GTX 1050 ti underneath it, which reaches 80 degrees. Not to mention, it is also stunningly beautiful. Definitely worth its price.

  I have a 10600k i5 with 125 TDP and I bought this cooler mainly for the LED lights. However, I wanted to overclock it a bit and had relatively good results up to 4.8 GHz with low temperatures in stress tests. But once I reached 4.8 GHz, it hit temperatures in the 90s. I thought it was the cooler's fault, so I bought a popular Arctic Freezer e sports duo. I was disappointed because it couldn't even handle 4.8 GHz and reached temperatures of 95+ in Cinebench. So, I decided to go back to the liquid cooler and was preparing for water cooling when something incredible happened. I installed the Arctic Freezer duo fans, the Arctic Bionix, since I had them in push-pull, and now it reaches a maximum of 92 degrees at 5.0 GHz with Cinebench R23 with AVX (for those who know, temperatures rise a lot with AVX). In games, the highest temperature I've seen is 45-55 degrees, and in the Intel XTU stress test, it reaches 76 degrees at 5.0 GHz. Even in the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool stress test, it performs impressively at 5.0 GHz. I'm so impressed that I'm writing this review to clarify that the fan that comes with it is quiet and good, with LED lights, but the cooler shines with the Arctic fans. Also, the second time I used it, I applied Arctic's MX-4 thermal paste, not that the paste that comes with the cooler is bad. I'm so impressed that I'm now looking for better fans from Noctua and Corsair to see how far it can go. I have good airflow in my case and I have the Gigabyte Z490 Aorus motherboard. Also, when I overclocked, I didn't touch the voltage, I left everything on automatic and did it through Intel's XTU. I didn't even go into the BIOS. I mention this because if I had adjusted other settings, maybe I would have achieved better results. Also, I should note that I ran the tests immediately without allowing the thermal paste to fully settle, so maybe after a few hours, I'll get even better results.

  I have it with a Ryzen 5 3500X and it keeps it steadily below 42 for 35 euros that I spent, I am very satisfied beyond that it is a beauty. (temperature only with the cooler in the case and its fan, not with extra case fans)

  I put it in Ryzen 5 2600, I had a problem with the processor temperature reaching 90 degrees many times, the graphics card 2060 super would shut down due to temperature since I didn't have good airflow in the case with the stock cooler. I dropped it by 20 degrees, everything is very good, I recommend it without fear...

  This specific cooler was a pleasant surprise. It was installed on an ASRock B450M Pro4-F with a Ryzen 5 2600 and 16GB of RAM for 3D/2D image editing and rendering. During simple tasks such as internet browsing, text editing, Facebook, Netflix, etc., the CPU temperature ranged from 23-26 degrees Celsius.
  However, I was impressed during the multicore test of CINEBENCH, where all 6 cores of the processor were fully utilized. The temperature gradually increased and remained at 51 degrees Celsius throughout the test. With the stock AMD cooler, it had reached 77 degrees Celsius.
  The ambient temperature during the measurements was 20-22 degrees Celsius.
  The installation is relatively easy, with good build quality. The fan is quiet even at high speeds.
  The LEDs are addressable RGB, better than simple RGB, and perhaps the only drawback I find is that there is no controller, so it needs to be controlled by the motherboard. In my system, they synchronized without any issues.
  The packaging includes 4 metal clips to install a second fan if needed, as well as thermal paste, which seems to be of good quality.
  Very satisfied.

  He overclocked my processor by 20 degrees compared to the stock cooler of AMD on the Ryzen 5 2600. I, of course, added another fan, one for intake and one for exhaust. It's worth combining it with a good thermal paste and everything will be fine, and you will see amazing results
