    Best Budget Cooler IMHO

    This is my favorite air cooler. It works well, it's not expensive, and it doesn't have RGB. I'm not a fan. If you are, they have a version that has that as well. I just prefer to have no extra lights. Works well, cools well. Always purchase a Hyper 212 for my builds.

    Installed this on a 4-5 year old CPU. Installation was very easy and it fit in the case perfectly. Keeps things nice and cool. Only possible con is that it is quite heavy and I would be hesitant about transporting the computer in the vertical orientation.

    Bought for my son, and he indicated that installation was smooth and quick, and the the fan was a perfect replacement. The item was quick and easy to order, at the best price around. Fulfillment was seemless.

    Fan works as expected, had to buy new fan right away as I was upgrading to the LGA1700 motherboard. Much easier installation than the Hyper Evo 212. One star off because the title of the product is misleading, mentions RGB when theres clearly no signs of the fan being RGB. The Halo 212 is the one for RGB sake, and Best Buy really needs to update the title for the RR212S20PKR2.

    Its a great budget option for when a stock cooler isnt enough. It dropped temps around 15°c im my system over a stock amd cooler. It included mounting parts for every type of board and also came with a small amount of thermal compound.

    Budget Cpu cooler

    This is a budget cpu cooler. But depending on your case and the direction of airflow you can get 35°c idle which is great for the price. I'm pairing this with the 3800x. Its able to fit in smaller cases which is a plus. Does not come with pre applied thermal paste. I wouldnt recommend grtting this for cpus above a 5600x or i7 11700k.

    This was easy to install. It has been about ten years since i built my last pc. This was sooo much easier than it used to be to install a cpu cooler. I have not pushed it yet but normal gaming and work flow has kept my temps inline.

    I've mainly been a water cooling guy but this keeps my I7 11700k at below 60 on most games and below 70 on the more taxing ones. If you need something that works and dont want to spend alot of money this is honestly perfect. It has alot of mounts and the instructions were a bit off for installing the one I needed but still worth it

    Easy to install. Keeps temps low on my i7 11700. Worth getting. I'm not doing any crazy overclocking, but you may want to add a second fan if you plan to

    I used this as a quick replacement for my fauled LianLi Galahad 360. It cooled almost as well and is very quiet. Even while playing CPU intensive games! Within 10C of my AIO! Very impressed with it cooling my 3700X!

    Works great for Ryzen 7 5800x. Keeps it cool under load and very quiet for such a hot processor. Installation was easy with the included instructions.

    This is the first CoolerMaster i have used. Its cooling a Ryzen 3600 with no problems at all. Even during gaming it keeps temps under control. I highly recommend this for a cheap cooling alternative.

    Great air cooling fan! Youll more than likely have to take your graphics card out to install it, and its too long to fit in most Mid Size Cases.

    I needed a quick replacement cooler after my all-in-one water cooler’s pump died. Since I’m using the PC I installed this in as a server, I didn’t need massive cooling anymore, so I went with this. The installation was super easy and my server was back online pretty quickly. The cooler comes with one fan, and it has mounting hardware for a second. However, the mounting bracket won’t fit every fan, so make sure it’ll fit before picking up something to add air flow.

    Does the job really well, never have any sort of heat issues with my Ryzen 5 even with a decent overclock, to me it’s the best option all around for when it comes to price and general efficiency, only thing id look out for is to make sure you have enough clearance as it is a fairly tall cooler.
