Thermalright PS120SE ARGB CPU Air Cooler, 7 Heat Pipes CPU Cooler,Dual 120mm TL-C12B-S V2 PWM Fan, AGHP 4.0 Technology, S-FDB Bearing, for AMD AM4 AM5/Intel 1700/1150/1151/1200, PC Cooler

Bought this for a sleeper no RGB computer build with a 7800X3D. It was my first time building a PC, it's pretty beginner friendly. It's so quiet I can't even tell if my computer is on if I'm not looking at the screen; the only time I can hear it is when I'm pushing my games on max graphics, even then its super low volume. The temps are fine and no problems with speed either. So glad I went with this affordable option than a trendy liquid cooling, saved me a lot of headache during the build too with its simplicity.

Note that the cooler's size means one fan will likely interfere with non low profile RAM (Vengeance LPX). The fan that interferes (if it does) can be moved slightly upwards, which will not harm performance in any meaningful way but will look a bit worse.Reasonably quick to assemble, but do pay attention to the side the thermaltake logo and heap pipes are facing.Comes with thermal paste, keep in mind the paste is very thick so you may want an old card on hand to help with application (does not need to be spread if it's a large pea size dot near the center of the cpu, the cooler spread it out once applied). The card (or any other small edged tool - plastic to avoid scratching the cpu) will help with getting the paste to stop sticking to the applicator and moving the blob to the center of the cpu!Keeps even the Ryzen 9 9950x3d at good temps up to a 78 celcius max after sustained workloads, with minimal thermal throttling (cinebench scores remain high). The cooler is overall quiet (no AIO pump whir helps), well built (lifted the relatively heavy X870E Nova with it). And the fans are PWM adjustable with RGB support using the standard ARGB header.

Great affordable CPU cooler , I installed it with both a 9700x3d and 9950X . Works pretty good for both of themThe noise level is low and it’s super easy to install. Just be aware of the logo to tell you which direction to make it go

This is awesome I wish I'd installed it sooner. I had a Corsair AIO water cooler and it never seemed to act right. I know it was installed correctly (i've built quite a few PC's over the decades), but for example sometimes the CPU block light would come on, sometimes it wouldn't. My CPU would run hot (5800x3d) and I felt that the AIO just wasn't working well enough. It WAS working, just not as well as I thought it should.Saw this cooler on Amazon for less than $40. and on impulse picked it up, and it sat under my desk for probably more than half a year. I just never seemed to have the time to take apart my desktop and remove the AIO and install this.Well last week I got tired of feeling like I had a space heater under my desk and finally swapped them out and the difference is like night and day. For one thing it blows the hot air 'back' instead of 'up' at me, and somehow it's about 5-8 degrees cooler. Which doesn't sound like a lot but it does make a difference. Maybe I should've used a 3 fan AIO instead of a 2 fan AIO, but I was worried the larger 3 fan wouldn't fit.The desktop is running fine, temps are low, this CPU cooler looks 'cool' and everything is running fine.I wish the fan aRGB wires were just a tiny bit longer, even just an inch or two would've been better. I had to run them down behind the MB and up through the bottom to get to the right header on my ASUS mb, and the cords just barely reached. But other than that there were no issues.the RGB for them is controlled by the Armoury Crate software and I've had no issues with it.All in all it's a great cooler and I'd recommend it pretty highly.

Very easy to install as a first time builder. I replaced my prebuilt fan with this one and it is so worth every penny. Very quiet, keeps my cpu cool, and best of all, it fits in my case! Very worth buying.

It’s really good. There were a couple things that brought it down a star. For one, when trying to install the fan clips, I sliced my finger on the metal and started bleeding. Second, one of the pins was slightly shorter than the other disallowing it to properly connect. Lastly, it’s a tiny bit loud but small drawback for big cooling. For reference, I have a Ryzen 5 9600x and it remained cool even under heavy load. Its range of colors is appealing, works well, and was easy enough to install (assuming you have slim and small fingers).

Installed on top of a Ryzen 7 9700X at stock clock speeds. Normal Windows 11 usage rarely gets over 45 C. In Red Dead Redemption 2 at 1440p ultra max MSAA, CPU never gets over 65 C.A couple issues I had:A. The screws on the heatsink that screw into the mounting bracket seem to be cut a little short on some of these at the factory, making it hard to start the threads on both sides. Had to apply probably more pressure than I wanted to on a brand new system to mount both sides of the heatsink.B. The fans included with this were annoyingly loud at idle for no obvious reason. I tinkered with fan curves in my Asrock B850 Pro RS Wifi version 3.20 motherboard and couldn't get it it to sound any better. On a whim I decided to tinker with the wiring - this kit comes with a splitter cable so you can daisy chain the fans together on one CPU fan header. When I took out the splitter and put each fan on a separate header (for fan control and RGB), they sounded nearly silent like magic. If you're having issues with noise using this try that. These fans may have issues with power delivery or something if they're both run off the same CPU_FAN header.Overall great performance, look forward to years of use.

Nice RGB and cooling for the price. The fan noise is pretty good in games, but I have not had a chance to run a benchmark. I have built a few PCs before, but the screws for AMD board took some unexpected force to get them to catch correctly, but the process was straight forward. This model came recommended by a number of builders so I thought to give it a try, and I have to say I like the result.
