## Before you buy

- AMD installation is stated to require the motherboard's original backplate, which is not included. Confirm case and memory clearance before installation.
- Listing details are inconsistent: the product dimensions are given as 12.5L x 13.5W x 15.4H centimetres and 125 x 135 x 155 mm, while another feature gives a height of 154mm. The title refers to a 120mm PWM fan, but the detailed description names two fans. The included-components field says “CPU Water Cooler” despite the product being described as an air cooler. Confirm exact dimensions and supplied components for the selected listing.

## Customer feedback

The supplied evidence contains only aggregate ratings, with a small sample and a distribution concentrated in four- and five-star categories. It does not identify what buyers liked or disliked, so it cannot establish customer views on cooling, noise, fit or installation.

The listing names AMD AM4 and AM5, and Intel LGA1851, 1700, 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156 and 1200. Check your exact motherboard and mounting requirements before purchase.

The title refers to a 120mm PWM fan, while the detailed description specifies two 120mm fans. The listing also describes them as synchronised for speed control, so confirm the selected listing's configuration.
### Does it include the AMD motherboard backplate?
The compatibility details say AMD installation uses the motherboard's original backplate and that it is not included.
### Are its dimensions clearly established?
No. The listing gives several close but inconsistent height figures. Check the exact cooler dimensions against your case clearance before buying.
