Fortunately Thermalright is here in the US for budget builders. I do like the DeepCool designs a little better, but Thermalright is a decent amount cheaper.

I'm no Russian shill but I honestly love the aesthetics that deepcool has, kind of a bummer. I have a ak620 and have wanted the digital version, sounds like now is the time to get it. I had no idea this even happened until I checked if my cooler would fit with my buddy's old mobo and CPU that I may buy from him.

Hey man, just before I watch your video, I want to thank you for teaching me proper selling techniques and how to increase value and build quality. I randomly stumbled up on your channel a few weeks ago and I must say that you inspire me. Ive wanted to flip computers since 2019, but never did for some reason. A few weeks ago I decided to give it another go. Sold my first PC just a few days ago, broke even, but I'm learning plenty. I just want to thank you sp much for affecting my life in such a positive way, I find so much joy and meaning in this that I havent felt for years. I will start a channel out to log my progress in PC flipping and tech! Thank you once again, take my appreciation to heart, from my heart! Take care man!

[@mannydcbianco]

Not going to even dip my toe into if the ban is justified or not: other than skimming a few articles on the subject I simply do not know enough to have an even remotely educated opinion, but.. oh man I'm going to miss DeepCool air coolers. I love everything about them: the sleek and minimalistic design, good performance, reasonable price, low noise levels. While there are other air coolers that cool even better and are even more quiet, they are in my opinion nowhere near as sleek-looking. Not even close.

[@Urock7]

Oh no I bought the Deepcool ASSASSIN IV CPU Cooler from Amazon two months ago and this will be troublesome if there's no warranty for if one of the fans ever fail. If I ask Amazon to allow me to return it past the return window then there might be a 20% restocking fee for a late return because Amazon usually charge a restocking fee if I want to return something past the return window.

[@O6i]

Ive been using a deepcool captain 120 aio to cool a ryzen 7 1700 for 8 years without issue.. never even changed my thermal paste. This news blew my mind

[@zombl337og]

just bought a DEEPCOOL cpu cooler like a month ago lol

[@MasterJediSean]

This really sucks the big one as Deep Cool is just about to launch an awesome new CPU Cooler line that has a newer Vapour Chamber design that has a 270watt TDP as seen on Gamer's Nexus at a hardware convention just a couple months ago. So we are going to loose out on this new Gen of cooling. I just bought a Deep cool CH560 Digital Tower Case and I really like it, Well designed, and just after I ordered it the next day (after delivery) it was no longer available. Not to mention I got lucky on the price as well. I purchased my case for $89 CAD.

[@jackfroggy]

Is it legal to buy deepcool from amazon right now before the current inventory runs out?

[@ThePcRehab]

It is, the items were already sold to Amazon. Amazon sells them as a distributor. They will not be able to buy more to replenish inventory

[@hbk92701]

Technically it is not. Sanctions on companies actually covered both ways.

[@tankerock]

@@hbk92701 You might be right but I don't think companies like Amazon who might already have a large stock of DeepCool products before these new sanctions should have to throw everything out. What if its $100 million worth of products? Amazon or any other retailers shouldn't have to bare the burden of DeepCool's geopolitics.

[@frederichardy8844]

I don't think that there's a risk for the buyer, it's for the seller.

[@hbk92701]

@@frederichardy8844 the law says it is illegal for people to buy it. Thats why even system builders have been destroying their invenotry. Even the risk of selling it as part of a system is too great and so is for someone buying it.

[@vickbenice]

Any suggestions as to what would be the next comparable product to Deep Cool?

[@柯生-e9e]

In fact, the United States banned Deepcool on the grounds that Deepcool sold products to Russia. I think it is a bit ridiculous. Politicians have all kinds of strange methods. In the eyes of some of our Chinese DIY players, this is more like protecting their own brands. To ensure that the decision will not be destroyed by deepcool, which is cheap but has good performance, for example, the products sold by brands like corsair are expensive and the performance is not particularly outstanding. For this reason, I am an American brand. DIY players feel pity

[@B.404M]

That is ignorant. There is much going outside your house. Or, did you forget where all inflation came from? It's much closer to your doorstep than you think. The east isn't treating us nice. Use your head, not a gut feeling based on money. They don't act and wannabe our friends, it ain't smart to keep feeding them knowledge and money. Didn't you guys wanna make the USA great again? But only if it doesn't cost you. That's the right mentality 😂

[@NJ-wb1cz]

Corsair power supplies are made by Great Wall in China that also manufactures most power supplies in general under most brands including generic ones like Wallmart, and of course sells them to Russia as well under many brands in much bigger quantities than Deepcool. This isn't just ridiculous, it is nonsensical, and the media coverage doesn't reflect how absurd it is.

[@Cou_Nho]

So is it still ok to buy it rn?

[@brycemoreno2210]

If you can buy one it's okay. Just seems that inventory may not be restocked unless this gets resolved. It's a shame because I love deepcool products :/

[@gravef1ghter]

Thoroughly frustrated at this development. I take a week, maybe two, to vet any product I put into a customer build, and when I finally vetted the Mystique 360? BAM, the U.S. bans it. So back to Amazon, it went. At least they were prompt in issuing my refund. Still sucks though!

[@FreeLancer0nyx]

Easy way around this is to create a shell company and sell the same stuff under a diffrent brand. Happens all the time with inclusion contracts

[@RealitySetsIn]

If you can still buy drugs on every corner I'm sure locating some prohibited CPU coolers won't be too difficult. I think the government is shady for doing these tactics anyway.

[@ThePcRehab]

Yeah you can still find them all day on sites like AliExpress, I’m not worried about finding the items I’m more worried about the support on said items

[@frederichardy8844]

@@ThePcRehab But AliExpress take a risk of being ban by the US is they sale banned item to the US. Obviously not easy to enforce but if your order have a higher risk of been block by customs they can loose customers.

Man that blows big time. REALLY wanted a white CH160

[@TheJayDawg21]

The CH160 is still available on Amazon right now in both black and white. I just bought mine earlier today before I heard all this news.

[@PinkyTech]

Warranty will be interesting, but honestly, I can't recall having to RMA a cooler, especially an air cooler. I know MSI AIOs are having issues, but I think that is more of an outlier. Honestly, with Thermal Right, Vetroo, ID Cooling, etc., there are plenty of other budget players to pickup the slack.

[@Averagedude-mi3fl]

I get why they are wanting to ban them. Too bad though. Hopefully other companies take lessons from their designs. Been power happy with Thermalright but I think they are based in that area so who knows if they will be banned also.

[@ThePcRehab]

Only time will tell.

[@_AndromedaGalaxy_]

[@spentcasing3990]

To add some detail to this video. The reason why DeepCool is being banned in the U.S, and probably soon other western countries is because the items DeepCool sold fall under the CHPL list (Common High Priority List) This is a list of about 50 items that are sanctioned not to be sold to Russia because they will be used to produce weapons for Russia's war with Ukraine. Most of these items are electronic in nature such as cpu's, integrated circuits, capacitors, and printed circuits. What DeepCool did was try to bypass the sanctions by selling computer parts such as aio's and power supplies, that the Russians would tear down and use for parts to make weapons. Russia doesn't have the facilities to produce their own parts and have to rely on imports. This is why the Russians are trying to get their hands on any electronic device possible from smart TV's to washing machines and dishwashers

[@anthonybaez497]

I can imagine somebody buying a new cheap 100 dollar 720p smart tv and russia's government is like "WE NEED THAT TO MAKE TANKS"

[@xychen4812]

This sanctions sounds stupid😅 What? So deepcool sells radiator or aio for Russian tanks?😂 Don't know about you, but that sounds pretty promising when it comes to quality of their product😂

[@spentcasing3990]

Anything that has integrated circuits, printed circuits, or any kind of microprocessor falls under the CHPL (Common High Priority List) And are banned from being sold to Russia because the Russians use them to make weapons such as guided missles to attack Ukraine. Russia can't produce these on their own which is why they steal and tear down every computer and smart device they can get their hands on. What DeepCool did was sell over $1million worth of pc products that have those components. Power supplies, aio's, and digital displays like DeepCool's AK620 have those components the Russians need. Unfortunatly DeepCool is not the only Chinese company trying to get around Sanctions to sell to Russia.

Since you asked. I agree it's a massive blow for PC builders. I've used their products, I like their products and I have builds out there with Deep Cool parts in them that would need support. Having said that, and I'll probably draw fire for this, but, if what is alleged is true I would not choose to use their products any more no matter how good or cheap they are. If there is a US based subsidiary and they manufacture here and want to sell products it's a different story. But if they are part of a company that did what is alleged, they are off my list regardless.
