What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent about cooler dimensions: one specification gives 120 x 71 x 151 mm, while another gives a 120 x 46 x 151 mm heatsink before a separate 120 x 71 x 151 mm overall dimension. The title and feature text also conflict on whether Intel platforms are supported, while the compatibility details specify only AM4/AM5. The precise fan bearing description is garbled. Confirm the selected model's dimensions and socket support before purchase. The 5V three-pin ARGB connector requires a matching motherboard header. The stated noise and airflow figures are manufacturer claims, not independent measurements.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

AMD AM4 or AM5 desktop builders seeking a single-tower air cooler with ARGB lighting.
Buyers whose case clearance accommodates the listed 15.1 cm height and whose motherboard has a matching 5V three-pin ARGB header.

Less suited to

Builds using sockets other than AM4 or AM5 unless compatibility is confirmed for the exact product.
Systems that lack a 5V three-pin ARGB header if motherboard-connected lighting is required.

Frequently asked questions

Which CPU sockets does this listing specify?

It specifies AMD AM4 and AM5 support. Another feature line mentions Intel platforms but gives no Intel socket, so confirm compatibility with the exact listing before buying.

What motherboard lighting connection does it use?

The ARGB lighting connector is listed as 5V three-pin. Your motherboard needs a corresponding header for motherboard-connected lighting.

How much clearance should I allow?

The listed overall cooler dimensions are 12L x 7.1W x 15.1H centimetres, equivalent in the listing text to 120 x 71 x 151 mm. The listing also gives a conflicting heatsink width, so verify the model dimensions before purchase.

Is the fan's noise level independently measured?

No independent measurement is supplied. The listing claims a noise level of 33.3 Decibels.
