    A very nice processor fan. It's whisper quiet and large to get out that nasty heat. It comes with processor paste and several mounts to fit any socket size. It was a bit tricky to install on a premounted motherboard. I love it and would buy another one as I don't want to take the mounts off.

    Keeps my 13th gen i7 between 30-39c when gaming ir doing music production, thought id need a liquid cooler but i really dont with just the one fan on the heatsink. Only con was the bracket you use to attach a fan is just junk and doesnt work, just save yourself some time fiddling with it and zip tie it

    I was concerned about some high temps with my old AIO kit. Decided to go back to air cooling and this one seemed to be the best value for performance during my search. Keeps things cool!

    Baseline CPU cooler for entry to mid builds

    Bottom line, this cooler has been my standard for the past 10 years, and this has not really changed a whole lot since I've started building. The cooler works great with just the hardware it comes with, and you'll really start to appreciate the value of the cooler when using your own fans. Temps are relatively cool, quality is mostly nice, and my only complaint with this cooler is that the motherboard backplate this comes with feels a little flimsy.

    Great fan. Works nicely and absolutely boosted pc performance when it was getting too hot to keep up with Baldur's Gate 3. Mounting it is a bit of a pain but the instructions are clear and the kit covers a lot of different mounting styles. Read the instructions.

    A good fan. It is really quiet. It comes with good instructions too. This is the first fan that I have installed in a very long time and I was not sure how to do it at first, but the instructions walked me through it and I was able to do it with my roommate's help.

    My AIO pump went out and needed something to replace it that day or I was going to be out a pc for awhile. Easy install, instructions could be a little bit more in depth. But other than that it’s been great! Was going to order another aio, but with how this has been performing there is no need in it. I7-10700k oc to 4.8 from bios. Underload cpu stay between 60-65c. And I run the included fan at max at all times just personal preference. If you need something cheap but performs above expectations. This is the thing you need.

    Switched from a liquid cooling system to this, and this keeps my CPU at a lower temperature than it has before. Very good product, easy to install and comes with all types of brackets to fit your motherboard and CPU type.

    This is better than it should be. I was able to cool my i7 12700k enough that I could play any of my games without throttling. It was a different story on benchmarks though - throttling almost immediately. I used it for about a week and replaced it with a Kraken X73.

    Haven't had any overheating issues, doesn't get loud, not sure if its because my system isn't being pushed too heavily or the cooler just cooling. I play farming sims and high graphics 2077

    Works really well on a am4 cpu in a b550 motherboard!! Even handles well with some light overclocking. I would recommend this to anyone needing to save money while keeping their cpu safe from overheating!!

    Great cooler for when you don’t want to deal with the problems that come with liquid cooling. I’ve ran cooler master fans in all my PCs since 2014, never had any issues.

    I would highly suggest this over a liquid cooler for the cost if you are using a intel 5. I haven't used this on anything higher but the temps for the i5 idle around 30c and up to 60c in the computer I made for my sister.

    This cooler is the best and everyone should know it. My CPU is at a record low. Temps averaging at 45 while playing demanding games. Would recommend this cooler over and over again.
