 Absolutely fantastic!
This keeps my CPU at BELOW ambient temperatures when idle. I haven''t seen my CPU hit anything above 23 C since I installed this cooler. I do have two concerns, however.
The first is that bracket does not seem to hold the cooler on as securely as it should. After installing this, I was able to slide it around on top of the CPU. It took about 30 minutes of careful measuring to get it in the exact center. I hope that allowing my CPU to burn in with my case in a vertical orientation won''t cause it to slide.
Finally, this thing is HEAVY. I''m fairly confident my EVGA X58 LE can support the weight of this cooler, but I am VERY gentle about setting the case down for fear of inertia to cause it to rip out of the motherboard.
Other than these two concerns, installation was a breeze. I definitely recommend buying the extra fan holder. The provided fan clips would not hold the Noiseblocker NB-Multiframe M12-S2 that I ordered with this. The extra plastic fan holder made putting the fan on a breeze. It looks like it''s made of cheap plastic, but it works better than those shaky wire clips. |
