Product Features
LGA1851 AND LGA1700 CONTACT FRAME Improved contact pressure distribution through Intel mounting frame for efficient heat transfer, thanks to even CPU contact surface
NATIVE AMD OFFSET MOUNTING Optimized for the multi-die chiplet design of Ryzen processors - 5mm offset for optimal coverage of the CPU hotspot, resulting in more efficient heat transfer
ACTIVE COOLING OF THE VOLTAGE CONVERTERS PWM-controlled VRM fan that additionally cools components in the base area, such as voltage converters
INTEGRATED CABLE MANAGEMENT The PWM cables of the radiator fans are integrated into the jacket of the hoses, which means that only one visible cable is connected to the motherboard
LIMITED COMPATIBILITY WITH A FEW MOTHERBOARDS Oversized coolers on the M.2_1 slot can lead to compatibility problems. An overview and solution is available in the technical data, in the manual and on the manufacturer's website. Please use the compatibility check
Customer Reviews
I don't understand why there's bad reviews. Looks like there were a few people that received used/returned items. That aside, this cooler is fantastic. GamersNexus has this rated pretty high and it Looks great and keeps my 7800x3D cold. The fans do ramp up a little prematurely in my opinion, but never to a major level if the cooler and thermal paste are properly installed. It's a thick boy at 38mm for just the radiator, so make sure it's going to fit, but if you do your due diligence for planning your PC build, you should be fine. I suspeect this would fit most modern cases with front radiator support. Top is preferable in my opinion for exhausting hot air, but may be a little less compatible unless the radiator is offset plenty from the motherboard VRM heatsinks. Install wasn't hard if you follow the instructions. The only gotchas for me was that the brackets are left and right AND I accidentally installed them upside down the first time, so I didn't think that was intuitive, at least for me. Also the pump block isn't centered on the die, so it goes right to the edge of the CPU heatspread on the top and that preplexed me greatly, but it's by design. I think they designed it so the waterblock fan blows on that edge I guess. It's cold so it works. Only other thing that was weird with mine was the waterblock fan was ticking for the first hour or so. Not sure what that was about, tried adjusting things, eventually it went away. Not sure if there was a flap of tape or something?FYI, a 280mm is only about 10% less surface area than a 360 AIO, yet 36% more cooling than a 240, not to mention the thickness and waterblock design. So a pretty good alternative when you can't fit a 360mm.I think this think just looks so slick and I'm going to buy another one for my old PC.
