Good value, keeps my i5 13500 nice and cool. RGB also looks great, and cant see any hotspots. Good value, keeps my i5 13500 nice and cool. RGB also looks great, and cant see any hotspots.

Still a great cooler for the money, same as I've been buying for the last 15 years. Still a great cooler for the money, same as I've been buying for the last 15 years.

Great and simple cooler to install onto my motherboard and CPU which was my ryzen 5 3400g, i had it pulling 80w with PBO on and ran Cinebench R23 it ran at approx 65-70 degres celsius and during gaming it wouldnt go more then 58 degrees celsius when i play CPU intensive games like Fortnite.

Really stylish and runs nice and quiet. Found the heat sink a tad too chunky though as it was touching my RAM heat sink slightly so had to mount it 1CM higher than flush. Thankfully the mounting hooks allow that for any height. Note, only an issue for my setup (ASUS TUF mobo) as I populated all 4 DIMM slots. If only using the first pair it wouldn’t have been an issue.

easy to work with! easy to work with!

I bought this as a temporary replacement cooler for my 5900x when the pump in my water cooler died. It was taking a longer than expected to get a warranty replacement for my previous cooler and I still needed my pc for study (among other things). So I went down to my local PB and bought this. I was initially worried that it might not have been sufficient for my 5900x (especially during gaming), but I have been pleasantly surprised by this cooler. It has kept my temps within reasonable expectations (65c idle to 80c under load). Worked well as a drop in replacement and had no issues with fitting it in my case. I will likely keep it around as a...view more I bought this as a temporary replacement cooler for my 5900x when the pump in my water cooler died.

I will likely keep it around as a spare cooler incase another computer has cooler issues or maybe move it to my NAS.

Pros:
- Great drop in replacement for faulty water cooler
- No fitment issues (no ram or case clearance issues)
- Sufficient Cooling for 5900x

Cons:
- A little difficult to install on AM4 socket (my backplate was loose and cooler had to be attached to mounting brackets before mounting on backplate, felt like I needed an extra arm, but managed to do it on my own)
- Sounds like a jet engine under load (likely my own fault, if I was running it more permanently I would add a second fan and adjust fan curves to be more sensible)

I put this on 13th gen i5 and I do not think it speeds up at all, in multi hour gaming sessions. It may be overkill, but that again, that is what you want. No noise, cool under pressure. It just fits next to memory slots, so I was either lucky or both motherboard and cooler+fan follow some spec. Installation of both cooler and fan was straight forward.

Bought this to go on an AMD Ryzen 9 5900x. The heatsink is a bit bigger than expected. Therefore a medium tower box is necessary to install. My advice is to install on the motherboard before placing the motherboard in the chassis.
The box comes with fittings for both AMD and Intel processors.
It was necessary to go onto Cooler Master's website to get the instructions manual. Would have had 5 star if the manual was included. Bought this to go on an AMD Ryzen 9 5900x.

Replaced a very noisy AMD Wraith stock CPU cooler. Install was easy enough. Runs quiet enough for the user, though it doesn't hold a candle to something from Be Quiet or Noctua.
Cannot comment on RGB as motherboard does not have a compatible header. Replaced a very noisy AMD Wraith stock CPU cooler. Install was easy enough. Runs quiet enough for the user, though it doesn't hold a candle to something from Be Quiet or Noctua.

I bought this about a month back, to replace the original fan on my INtel I5.... a very old unit from 2016.
I also bought some Arctic Silver CPU paste from PB TEch.
TEmp of my CPU dropped straight away by between 10-20 degreesC.
Great product... I was very surprised by ho well it did.
Another great product. Thank you team PB Tech.
