Thermalright Assassin X 120 SE White CPU Cooler, 4×6mm Heat Pipes, 120mm PWM Quiet Fan CPU Air Cooler With S-FDB Bearing, AGHP Technology, For AMD AM4 AM5/Intel 1700/1150/1151/1200(AX120SE WHITE)

Cheap isn’t always cheerful especially with PC parts so if you’re skeptical like me on if this cooler is upto the job or not - It is!*Updates at the bottom*After reading/watching a myriad of reviews online I took the plunge not expecting much from a single fan air cooler after having my AiO for three years. I needed something robust yet cheap if possible to cool my 5700X.Packaging does the job, all protected by that typical foam packaging.Heatsink and fan, little baggies labelled with each Mobo type for the connectors. Thermal paste included.Firstly, installation is smooth and simple, instructions are typically basic but the pictures do a good job of explaining what to do for Intel and AMD. Be aware you may want to connect the fans pin connector before installing the heatsink but it’s a pain free process that took me all of about twenty minutes.The thing I like about this cooler is the ability to position your fan slightly higher thanks to the metal clips that grip the heatsink, this allows you to get some critical space between ram.Performance wise this things an absolute monster.I’m currently in the process of undervolting my 5700x and at my current settings this thing didn’t budge past 56C on prime95 and that’s without an exhaust fan currently in my PC. My AIO even when it worked would peak 58/60C dependant on ambient temps!So using the thermal paste included I loaded up CSGO first, then Modern Warfare 2.Now I didn’t play for a prolonged period so I will update this review as time goes on, but in my brief hour testing session my CPU capped out at 60C max.No curve adjustment, fans are barely audible over sound from monitor, a faint ‘hum’ tops.Again this is without an exhaust fan so currently my PC is circling warm air.Absolutely amazed with the results and for the price I cannot fault this product one bit. Don’t hesitate.Update as of Feb 21st 2023 - I haven’t gotten around to undervolting any further at present but am extremely happy to update that even with the likes of Red Dead Redemption or World of Warcraft Dragonflight (1080&1440p) this fan won’t let my 5700x budge over 64 degrees even with prolonged use!

Very easy to install, clear instructions and high quality.Value for money is brilliant, fan is quiet system runs cool.Haven't tried the ARGB but the fan runs fine without it being connected.

For the £15 I spent on it I'm honestly really surprised.I expected it to do the job but it's done much more than that.Really easy to install, looks great through the window of my case, works with all kinds of fans and sockets.Using Arctic MX5 thermal paste this cooler keeps my i7 3770 below 40 degrees almost all of the time while gaming, in the 20s on the desktop and browsing and only hit 50 degrees under an all core Cinebench run.Perfect cooler and great value, couldn't have asked for more!

20c at idle and 50c at load is great and it performs nearly silent, great value for a cooler to replace a stock one. It even comes with thermal paste and mounting hardware for 3 different types of motherboard.Installation was a bit hard, the bracket was a bit finicky as well as the clip of the fan which shaved some metal and I was a bit worried at the risk of shorting something but I have a duster so that was sorted.MAKE SURE TO REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE PLASTIC, I was aware of this but I forgot so use as many guides as you need and on that note, English instructions would have been nice but videos on YouTube helped.I pay £14.79 at the time of ordering, 27/11/24 (D/M/Y)

Excellent cooler. Easy to fit, quiet and cools well.I'd recommend this, or one of the similar coolers from this brand.Though be aware this is tall and won't fit smaller cases. Get the smaller fan version if necessary.

Probably the best value cpu cooler you can get. Low noise great performance and easy to fit.

So well built, under 40c idle, good rgb.

Best white cpu cooler for the price , The fan is nice and quiet as well, Easy installation and fit
