Seems like the biggest advantage of this PA140 over all the 120mm Thermalright coolers would be the extra internal case airflow created by the 140mm fans installed as they typically are in exhaust mode. I think the performance gap between the PA140 and the 120mm options would increase significantly when a higher wattage GPU was used in a mid-tower case - both for CPU & GPU temperatures. As an example I have a PS120SE and did a fan swap to 2x T30's - this only lowered my CPU temps by 1-2C at any given noise level, but it improved my GPU temps more noticeably since the higher airflow (again, at any given noise level) made it a serious upgrade when it came to eating / venting GPU exhaust out the back of the case.

Another serious advantage of the PA140 over the 120mm Thermalright coolers is the sunken / rounded middle fan. This lowered fan configuration offers significant benefits for RAM, VRM, chipset and M.2 cooling. If you're using a motherboard with one or more small motherboard cooling fans the extra airflow from the sunken middle fan can also significantly reduce overall system noise by eliminating the need for those smaller fans to spin up. The Frost Spirit 140, Noctua D12L and Noctua D15S all have similar sunken fans and offer similarly unique cooling benefits. I agree that the CPU temp performance alone of the PA140 isn't worth the extra size, weight, compatibility hassle etc. but you really seemed to miss out on highlighting a number of the major performance benefits of this design in your review. I'm guessing this is partly Thermalright's fault for not calling these benefits out in it's marketing materials / review guide but it would still be beneficial to potential buyers if you could cover all of the unique features of coolers like this when you review them!

@@HardwareCanucks Thanks! Maybe if you review the PA120 Mini & D12L you could compare the RAM, VRM, chipset and M.2 cooling performance of their sunken 120mm fans to the cooling performance of the PA140's sunken 140mm fan! Or compare PA120 Mini (1* aggressively sunken 120mm fan) vs D12L (1* less aggressively sunken 120mm fan) vs PA140 (1* aggressively sunken 140mm fan) vs D15 G2 (2* less aggressively sunken 140mm fans)? I know y'all are fans of air cooling over AIOs and this is an area where air coolers really shine! FWIW I'm using a Noctua C14S (downdraft cooler) in an inverted SFF build and am enjoying similar RAM, VRM, chipset and M.2 cooling performance benefits to these sunken fan designs. With this C14S setup my B650E-I chipset fans are silent 🤫 and my heavily overclocked DDR5 RAM is cool and stable even with 1.5V.

There's nothing confusing about it. The 140 (as its name suggests) is a slightly bigger version of the 120 and has a small, but measurable performance advantage. The price is also not too much higher than the 120. So Thermalright gets to launch a new product (and the revenue and interest that comes with it), and consumers get another product to consider (whether for performance to aesthetic reasons).

The AIO market is tough today. On one end you have the real cheap AIO's from relatively unknown manufacturers and at the other end are the well known brands that will charge an arm and a leg for a decent AIO. But just over the real cheap ones are Arctic with a huge line up of AIO's for relatively low prices and with better performance than most of the high end brands. Sure they might not look the way prefer but if you are looking for quality, performance and a resonable price they are the right choice. To make a real impact in the AIO market you either have to make coolers that looks real good or be able to provide them at extremely low prices while still keeping decent performance. Arctic are cheating as they use thicker radiators than anyone else as far as I know. As for sixe they have 240mm, 280mm,260mm and 420mm radiators, and the cheapest 420 mm AIO is about the same price as their cheapest 360 mm AIO. It's the same with the 240mm and 280mm AIOs, they are about the same price. Just get the largest that your case handles and it's fine.

@@thomaslayman9487 I've seen it mentiones in something like six or seven mentions of it in comments on YT and almost all of them call it Preytor, but when I check it turns out actually Pretor. Not Praetor or Preytor but Pretor. Well at least it's that's what Thermalright labeled it as at Computex. I have some weird info on the cooler and it's fans. Gamers Nexus mentions that there are going to be at least two versions. The Royal Pretor and the Royal Pretor Ultra. The differences are less than clear in the article by GN. At one point they say that they have six or seven heat pipes. Then they say that the Ultra will come with seven fans. If they meant to say seven heat pipes I think it would sound better, but this is from a GN article so I don't really know. perhaps there are seven fans in different colors, I don't know. What I could see was however that they had no picture of a Pretor with seven heat pipes, so that suggest that the heatsinks with seven heat pipes are dome other model. Something they did write was that the 13 cm fan on the Ultra version would be using a 25mm thick 120 mm front fan. this sunds strange as they also say that on the standard version both fans will be 28 mm thick. I think they made some mistakes writing this article. But the name is said to be Pretor in many articles from several sources.... But until Thermalright gets it up on their site I guess we will have to wait and see.

It's both exciting because it's a good cooler, but kind of "oh neat another cooler I don't need" because I already bought a cooler from this era where it started getting really really good and, ironically mine (Frost Spirit 140) looks so close to this you could mistake them for each other more easily than you could tell them apart. Have to peer at the edges of the fin shapes. I wonder at this point if they know they have the market beat, and just want to keep reminding people of it, by putting out a (legitimately good but utterly similar) cooler and getting one more review to stay fresh in people's minds and get that "new cooler smell" to make people feel it's something new to be excited for. And to "stuff the (digital) shelves" by having so so many results in any search for a cooler that, for this reason or another, they're going to have a better chance to dominate search results on etailers. I don't think they have much presence in physical shops, and those will probably prefer to carry just one or two models. So, it won't work to storm physical retailers... mostly. But on the other hand they have a massive presence on say Amazon now. The number of models probably helps. At the end of the day, if a confused consumer only knows they "should buy Thermalright" (if in deed they should), they will pick something despite decision fatigue and just get the one someone told them to get or the one that looks good, and it will after all be a good cooler. That's my attempt to explain it. Just throw coolers at the wall and it will stick, apparently. Anyway... I don't mind it personally, as much as there are reviews to know which one to buy. I am legitimately being concerned they get more brand exposure than others simply by pumping out more models. I hope this also isn't a loss-leading strategy to cultivate brand loyalty, and try to force others to bow out of the market due to lack of margin, before eventually jacking up prices??? It's not unheard of in retail. It's a dog eat dog business. I wonder. Anyway, meanwhile air cooling is as good as it's ever been, and a lot better than it was even a few years ago. For now. Will see if it lasts. Thanks, Thermalright... I think??

It is bigger but ultimately it is still 6 heat pipes. At such a size, it should be minimum 7 heat pipes or optimally 8 heat pipes. 6 heat pipes at 140mm is a sin. PS120 is still cheaper and perform even better just by replacing the stock fans with cheap Arctic P12 MAX. In PA140 case, even replacing the stock fans, the thermal transfer will still be limited by 6 heat pipes. Thermalright need to produce a 7 heat pipes and 8 heat pipes variants if they want to go 140mm.

As long as they are all cooling roughly the same, I don't see much of a downside to options.

But if the coolers are performing the same for the same price, it's hard to see a real downside.

my recommendation, and i've already done it twice on 2 different systems for my friends, is to buy a Noctua NH D15 or D14 used on ebay. You can easily find one for 50-60$ and they are likely flawless. And while these coolers are mostly equivalent in terms of performance, a 2-3 difference in decibel is HUGE. 40 vs 43 db is something that you WILL notice immediately. But otherwise new noctual coolers are way too overpriced.

I do wonder if there's larger AM5 differences to see if you use Thermalright's coolers in conjunction with their AM5 contact frame that ensures better heat distribution -maybe that could let the PA140 benefit more from its size, if the heat itself from the IHS can transfer more effortlessly without relying on extensive coldplate machining to match the IHS surface curvature like Noctua does. Either way, bigger cooler for hardly any more money goes brrr

I rather just have a heatsink covering 120mmx120mm. As in the fins actually covering the entire fan height. I also would love to get rid of that cut-out. To optimize noise, I rather just introduce a small duct, and increase the separation in the middle. In the end, this will increase the overall fin area, without increasing the width. I rather also see them just making it taller, as in just make a taller one, without that stupid cutout. Actually, that enables you to space the sinks farther apparat, and allows for a deeper cooler. This design that all these towers are using, is showing its age.

I can barely fit the 120mm rgb one lol, it has been a great investment for my 5800x upgrade. And future cpu upgrades.

Might be a noob question but, is there a significant effect on the temps if I mount the 120mm Fan at the rear of the heatsink and clip the middle one on the first tower? Basically exposing the heatsink at the front. I have tall sticks or RAMs and I am absolutely sure it would not fit well with the 120mm Fan. Thanks!

I'm planning to get R9 7900x to pair with TR PS 120 EVO. But is it ok if i do a PULL-PULL configuration? (For RBG ram aesthetic reasons). Does that hinder the cooling performance?

Hi Hardware Canucks, what is the Thermalright Air cooler best match with AMD 7800X3D ?
@greenbow7888
@greenbow7888 Ай бұрын
I think the 140 is worth it you plan to put better fans on. The Thermalright fans are nothing special. If you added a couple of Noctua fans, it would likely reduce temps by another 2'C. Would also love to see the Noctua D15 G2 run with LBC and an Intel CPU with a contact frame. Please, Canucks.

why not just get the fc140 or fs140? those have offset heatpipes for gpu clearance.

If I can get at least equal (in this case a smidge better) cooling at a lower decibel level that's a "win" for me because my PC sits on my desk off to the side. Now if it was under the desk on the floor "over there" I wouldn't bother like you said.

I might be misunderstanding something, but wouldn't it be more benefitial to just slap another 120mm fan at the back of the original tower, to increase airflow, or is it not how it works? I've seen some people slap an additional cooler at the back of the second tower, does that do anything, and if it idoes, why bother with these changes?

Why are you testing the NH D15 G2 in a version “LBC + offset” on AM5? According to Noctua graphics “LBC no offset” or “standard + offset” are better combo
