    Put this into a new system build. Actually a nicer unit than an order version I had in my old machine. its worth it in a cooler running processor.

    Experienced Issues After 1 month

    My initial installation on my MSI Tomohawk MOBO with Ryxen 5 2600 CPU wasn't that bad. I was using the stock cooler and bought this as a replacement. The hardware needed to install this required a different bracket (glad I kept the original bracket from the MOBO). The cooling tubes were not super flexible and the way I had to mount it caused some torque on the mount to the CPU. I had to really screw it in to get it straight. After about a month, I am seeing its not cooling as well and have a feeling that the extra torque from the tubes has caused it to loosen. I will try to re-apply paste and see if the tubes are any more flexible after a months use.

    The radiator system comes with a couple of different mounting brackets, theoretically to one for Intel, one for AMD. My machine HP Omen Obelisk, an intel based product. - It didn't fit well and it was very loose. The good news is i am an engineer and was able to modify a bracket so it worked. I was however pretty annoyed because before going for this I call Bestbuy tech support to specifically ask if it was the new version of the radiator unit. They said yes, but it wasnt it was the previous generation. All this said... with those comments and issues in the rear view mirror. It works great.

    This cooler can do only what`s asked.....Cooling. It will get the job done without any tweaking. Good for a moderate overclocker. Keep temps where they suppose to be. 40c at normal 60-62 under load

    If you have limited space in your case, this might work for you. This is not adequate enough for extreme overclocking.

    I changed it to this cooling system and my kids' alienwares became very quiet. Now I regret why I didn't change it in advance.

    Decided to go with this cooler for my new build and it hasn't disappointed. The radiator tubes are a pretty tough to handle everything hooks up perfectly and I had no issues

    Never tried installing one of these but it was a breeze. Dropped CPU temp between 20 to 30 degrees (on Alienware R12 which has a definite overheating problem out of the box)

    Use this on a micro PC to free up some space in the machine from the air cooler. Noticed quite a decrease in temperature and noise.

    Worked well until I put the system in a warmer room of the house where the sun could shine on the PC case. Had to install a second fan on the radiator to overcome the sun load when the system was running at 100% for more than 30 minutes.

    i have always used on micro atx and itx cases where you dont have room for larger coolers. They do well with the extra intake and exhaust fans

    Replaced stock fans with noctua fans for the heat sink. If you have space the newer dual 240mm are a better choice for dissipating heat from processors under any kind of real load.
