07-04-2025After receiving my new Ryzen 5 1600 AF, I tried overclocking with the stock cooler, only to find that temperatures would immediately shoot into the high 80’s/low 90’s. However, this cooler fixed things as soon as it was installed. I could clock even higher while staying at lower temperatures. Amazing!

> 3 dayBin damit sehr zufrieden. Sogar bei warmes Wetter hat der Lüfter mir sehr überrascht. Wir hatten 33 Grad draußen, innen war auch sehr sehr warm auch, ich dachte dass beim Spielen ich um die 80 Grad in der CPU kriegen würde, hat aber die 70 Grad überhaupt nicht berührt. Normalerweise beim Spielen bleibt es immer unter 60 Grad und das ist sehr überraschend, man hört auch sehr wenig davon. Ich habe 4 Chassis-Fans und alles funktioniert prima zusammen so dass der Geräusch überhaupt kein Thema ist.

> 3 dayI installed this on a MSI MPG Gaming Edge Wifi B550 with a 5600x inside a Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact and I have never once heard the pc fans actually spin up even under heavy load gaming (Max Settings at 3440x1440 144hz)

> 3 dayI bought this cooler since I couldnt find the D15S in stock at a reasonable price in time, but I have to say that it gets the job done really well. My CPU is actually a lot cooler than I expected it to get at idle and performing tasks like gaming and multitasking with a number of apps open. I paired it up with a second identical fan like the one in this package as well. I cant hear either of them. The instructions also make it easy to install.

> 3 dayEl producto en color negro es más caro que el color original, pero si quieres que este convine con una estética sobria o en tu gabinete resalta el color negro o tiene RGB, es una buena opción a considerar, también el bloque disipador se siente robusto y se ve que enfría bien porque bajó las temperaturas hasta 10° y con el ventilador casi apagado, también de que apenas hace ruido el ventilador de 120mm con el que viene

> 3 dayWorks great, using it on a AMD Ryzen 5950x and it keeps it idle around 40c. Even under load the CPU never goes above 75c with this cooler and its extremely quiet. Wasnt the cheapest CPU cooler but definitely worth the money, I paid a bit extra for the black edition so it matches the theme of my PC case (White and black).

> 3 dayI was initially using the stock cooler that came with my 5600x, but the temps would go well into the mid 90C range so I turned off the boost and manually set the clock speeds lower until I could get a new cooler. After installing this one (which was quite easy btw) I was able to turn boost back on and not have to manually throttle my CPU anymore. I tested with cinebench and with all cores at 100% and fully boosted I get temps in the low 80C range. Much better but it still idles a little high. Maybe one of the bigger, chunkier coolers would help with that or maybe the 5600x just idles hot, either way Im pleased with it.
