Not sure if Dawid was using Amazon US or Canada, but in Canada the last time I checked you couldn't even buy that ancient turd of a CPU cooler. Also, the cooler Dawid bought is actually about the same price as the Amazon junk cooler and much better. Funny enough, the ARGB version of the Peerless Assassin 120 SE is cheaper on Amazon Canada right now than the non-RGB version, but isn't "Amazon's Choice".

*"Amazon's Choice"* is determined by an AI algorithm of everything from number of product returns to number of product interactions (i.e. Q+A, average review length, etc). This is why Amazon's Choice is not always the highest rated item. Amazon isn't trying to find the _best_ performing item in a category, they're trying to find the item most customers will accept and be content with.

Ironically enough, the Peerless Assassin is actually one of the best air coolers in this price range. Gamers Nexus put it through its paces with their test and it came pretty close to matching the Noctua NH-D15 in terms of cooling performance. I think it might be due to you not having used the second fan as well as using the stock CPU fan curves that caused the excess noise in the system.

Yeah, I watched the video by Gamers Nexus so I thought the same thing. Until I bought it. I have it paired with a 5800x so I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt when it comes to mediocre thermal performance, but the fans really ain't great. Max fan speed I'm running them at is about 50%. After that, they start to get real noisy and produce a high pitched whistling kind of sound when they're at 70%. Good thing about it has a lot of thermal mass so it gets away with low fan RPM most of the time, and for the price it's still an absolute steal.

I used some SYY thermal paste on my laptop about 2 years ago. Still going really well in terms of thermals. My only advice is that it's a bit thicker/denser than I'm used to so spreading is a bit difficult. I'd advise spreading it manually with the included tool on something like a laptop rather than just sending the screws home and sending it - it feels like it'd bend the board before spreading nicely

If you take away the fan prices then still Noctua cost more. True. It is still hard to say really, I mean sure getting the tower and adding better fans to it? Yea it might be a good deal. But a Noctua NH-U12S Redux go for $50... With fans. And then we got BeQuite or really all kinds of options, even used!! I rather get a brand name cooler since even Noctua the kings of air premium got options worth the extra $10. If AMD stock coolers where just a tiny bit better at keeping the CPU's from dying a early death? I mean it is so close for the stock cooler to handle a 5600G without fan noise and worries about the chips dying earlier then it has to.

Noctua is still the way to go if you want no compromises with air cooling. Nothing wrong with going cheaper if you're not going to use the coolers full potential. You can also buy a 120mm or 140mm AIO for $30 to $40 to save space with AMD's G-series CPUs. If you seriously can't afford $100 for an air cooler you seriously don't need to be dealing with computers either.

If you can pick up the Thermalright on sale, which has been happening a lot lately, and have the fans lying around, then it's a great deal. But once you start buying fans, it's putting you close to the price of other coolers. Right now, on Amazon, the black edition of the 120SE is $37usd. If you pair it with a couple of Arctic P series fans, there's another $20. At $57, would I spend the extra $8 and get a Deepcool AK620? Probably. But I'm not everybody. Personally, I got the Peerless Assassin on sale for $32, and bought a 5 pack of the Arctic P series fans. 2 fans replaced the cooler fans, and the other 3 replaced case fans. That setup has worked great for me.

The one thing I love about the fans is each one of them have an independent 3-pin standard ARGB connection. All of my fans, and lights are connected to a Razer ARGB hub so I can fully customize the lighting profiles, and have them all sync. All Amazon Choice means, (I think) is they're the most purchased item of that type. I could totally be wrong about that though.

Thermalright peerless assassin is probably one of the best air coolers on the market for the price point. That being said throwing some Noctua fans on it would be beneficial.

I actually used that exact power supply for around 4 years, and I bought it used even. I only don’t have it anymore because I sold the PC it was in when I built a new one. It never had an issue with a gtx 1060 6gb and an i3-4100 (which was eventually upgraded to a R5-2600x)

Dawid, how the heck do you always have such low GPU temps?? I have a 3070 OC Vision. 3 fans at the front, not open front panel but at least a small vent slat on both sides, plus 2 exhaust fans. With an ambient temperature of 16/18 Celsius, my GPU is running at 75 degrees Celsius under full load. How do you always get in the 60’s, seemingly regardless of the case or card?

The fan on the cooler likely sounds awful due to how it's mounted. They're designed to be in a "push" configuration, with the exhasut side of each fan directly touching the fin stacks and an air gap on the intake side, but you have it clipped to the back of the first fin stack in a "pull" configuration, which will lead to turbulence since the blades are spinning right up against the fin stack with no air gap.

EZDIY-FAB do decent things--have used their sleeved cables in a few builds, as well as RGB heat-spreaders for RAM modules that were otherwise non-RGB to begin with--like back in 2019 when I moved from AM3 to AM4, and DDR3 to DDR4--but Vengeance RGB was just way more expensive than non-RGB. I just pimped those RAM sticks later down the road, and all you need usually is a heat gun. They also do things like right-angle 8 and 6 pin adapters to make builds a bit cleaner too, and vertical mounts. Basically think of any cable management or case accessory that a bigger company might've produced--and they'll have cloned it.

My 10 y/o wanted RGB in her PC rebuild for Christmas, and knowing nothing I bought the same RGB strip kit - although mine may have been older, as there was no sticky, just magnets. I had a few issues with a couple of the magnets pulling out, so had to glue them back in, but no issues at all with the RGB, it looks much brighter than yours, and has never randomly blinked off; even when the 10 y/o has buggered off on holiday with Grandma for 2 weeks (Disney, Florida), and left the system running with the screen switched off, until I spotted it nearly a week later. Might be worth checking it isnt a power saving feature on the mobo. In a (crap) black, Borg-esque Cube case, they look pretty awesome. TBF, the case itself looks awesome, but half the board mounts werent tapped and in the end, after two broke, I drilled all of them out and fitted industry standard - as they also werent standard thread size or pitch.

If this was a build I was working on, I'd take the extra / unused CPU cooler fan and mount it up top as intake to feed the cooler with fresh ambient air. Especially because the front fans are blocked off. And before anyone comments, yes, top intake is fine.
