Listing details to confirm
Listing details are contradictory or unconfirmed: the title names dual fans and specific socket support, while the explicit contents list only says “cpu cooler”. The feature text names the fan and sockets, but fan count and included mounting hardware are not itemised. Confirm the selected listing's kit and platform fittings. The title omits Intel LGA1155 and LGA1156, which are listed in the compatibility details.

Customer feedback reports favourable cooling performance, easy installation and perceived value, while noise impressions are mixed. Some customers say the fan is audible under full load, which may matter in a quiet build. The reported Ryzen 5700X temperature comparison is customer feedback, not a guaranteed result. The listing specifies dual 120 mm PWM fans and a 25.6 Decibels noise figure, but neither establishes how loud this cooler will be in a particular system.
Positive themes
- Customers report effective cooling and straightforward installation.
- Customer feedback describes the price-performance ratio favourably.
Mixed feedback
- Noise feedback is mixed, with reports ranging from minimal noise to audible fan noise under full load.
