Ho preso questo dissipatore in sostituzione dell’originale AMD per il mio Ryzen 5600, la differenza stata notevole fin da subito!
Precedentemente, su Spider-Man Remastered avevo registrato temperature CPU massime di circa 80 gradi, dopo la sostituzione la temperatura scesa intorno ai 58-60 gradi, nettamente migliori.
Sicuramente ha contribuito il cambio di pasta termica (ma la CPU ha circa un anno, per cui non poteva essere cos secca) ma posso comunque definirmi soddisfatto.
Consiglio a pieni voti.
Good price quality ratio (I’ve paid 20 for the plain version).
Pretty easy install, but the screws on the cooler (the preinstalled ones with the springs) are about 3mm too short to install it on my system (ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming 4 with an AMD Ryzen 5600). I fixed this by adding o-rings above the gray spacers.
The idle temp is 40C. Did not do a stresstest yet.
J’ai achet ce ventirad pour remplacer celui de base d’un AMD Ryzen 5 et comment expliquer quel point a change la donne.
-25C sur la plupart des jeux et enfin ma chambre n’est plus une fournaise !!
installation trs simple presqu’un jeu d’enfant et pour les performances et le bruit quasi inaudible de ce ventirad un prix si bas je ne peux que recommander !
Auf AM4 mit Ryzen 7 3700X verbaut. Obwohl das Gehuse keinen wirklich guten Airflow hat ist die Khlleistung sehr gut und der Freezer 36 Co sehr leise. Einfache Montage in Verbindung mit der AMD Backplate, zumal die Lfter nur eingeclickt werden. Der Freezer deckt zwar den Heatspreader nicht komplett ab, das ist aber kein Problem, weil alle heien Bereiche unter dem Heatspreader abgedeckt werden. Schade ist nur dass es kein Montagekit fr Intel Sockel 115x mehr gibt.
This is one of the best air coolers I’ve ever used in a build. I bought this in a process of replacing an old machine that went kaput on me, and that cooler used was an air cooler as well. No issues with that machine for what it’s worth, although the cooler in that machine was a Hyper 212 EVO back in 2016 which kept an i7-4790 around 40c. That machine now has an i5-4690 since the CPU died and had to be replaced, same temps around 40c. Not too bad.
Compared to what this cooler is doing currently for a 12600KF in my current build, it is running as low as 19c and up to 26c, granted I’ve turned off some cores and turned off hyperthreading BUT, the huge difference for what I tend to use this machine for with this cooler, this is very excellent in what I’d want to use for what is essentially a file server/archival PC and as the replacement of the other aforementioned build above. Hands down, one of, if not, the best price/performance ratios for a budget air cooler I’ve seen in a while. After watching some reviews and comparisons on YouTube from GN, this can also fit the bill if your wattage usage for a CPU is pushing 200W. At that range it should be fine for keeping things cool but definitely not anything bad per se.
The only thing I can say that may be a warning is if you’re installing on an Intel board you will need to be careful when installing its somewhat custom motherboard CPU bracket mounting system, which should be called the ILM, since there may be, not sure how much, a risk of shifting a portion of the CPU socket on the motherboard. You may want to have something underneath the motherboard to keep it from slipping. Useful information can be found on YouTube channels installing this. I did reference GN for this install, and it was not too bad for me. The reason why this step is needed is to make a better contact of the CPU heatsink contact with the CPU since most motherboards will not fully make contact with the CPU heatsink and CPU based on its ILM.
If you have a new build, if you can afford one of these for its introductory price, I’d say it’s a great one to consider. After some time the price may increase but its still not to say its not worth it but depending on what’s available you can check and do comparisons on what else is offered in the market of air coolers. After the 3 months of this being released the price may change but we can only tell once/if this happens.
Overall, I really like this CPU cooler for what it has done so far in keeping my CPU cool.
Tengo el artic black y es muy sencillo de instalar ,adems viene con un tubo pequeo de pasta mx-6 . Una vez instalado me ha bajado la temperatura del pc bastante y encima no hace nada de ruido. Yo por este precio que es super barato en comparacin con otros no me lo pensaba mucho. Lo que ms me gusta es el sistema de anclaje al disipador, ojal lo copiaran otras marcas.
Lo recomiendo muchsimo, yo lo uso en un AMD 4.
Il dissipatore stato molto semplice da montare, viene fornito con un piccolo tubetto di pasta termica. Per procedere al montaggio necessario solo un normale cacciavite a croce, meglio se lungo, cos da stringere le viti di fissaggio con facilit.
Io ho un 3400g, per me la capacit di dissipazione pi che sufficiente, da quando l’ho installato ho spinto tutto al massimo con perfetta stabilit. Consigliatissimo, soprattutto a 26 euro!
Se stai costruendo il tuo computer o devi sostituire il tuo vecchio dissipatore questo perfetto. Facile da installare, silenzioso ed economico. Compatibile con processori amd e intel. Le doppie ventole dissipano il calore veramente bene. Per il prezzo (pagata circa 25) super acquisto. Nella confezione gi presente pasta termica di alta qualit ( questa cosa fantastica!)
I recently purchased an Intel I5-13500 processor that came with a HSF. After seeing how inadequate it was, I ordered this product as it got very good reviews.
Installation is very simple and easy. For my Intel motherboard, I removed 4 screws and the CPU retention brackets and replace it with the included contact frame and screws. Then I attached the HSF to the contact frame with 2 screws (after applying the included thermal paste first) and I was done.
This HSF is deceivingly small when you look at pictures of it but is massive after you install it. As seen in the included pictures, the height of the HSF just barely fits. With the fans installed, it dwarfs everything inside the case.
Functionally, the fans are barely audible at low speed. Even when the fans ramp up under load, they are not bad. For reference, I have the case on the floor under my desk.
This product gets a good buy rating from me.
This product was easy to install and it maintains CPU temps really well. This not only works great but it is also looks great. It would be hard to get an air cooler that works as good as this at a better price.
