[@garystinten9339]

Use ducting to remove air.

[@SianaGearz]

No this is actually good. The air that comes out of the cooler is only a handful degrees warmer than what came in, and more airflow cools VRM better. Downdraft coolers are known for excellent mainboard cooling performance, look at any review - Thermalright and Noctua make large downdraft coolers as well and Scythe did until not too long ago. The ideal use for this sort of cooler is to give it a cold air intake on the side of your chassis though. These used to be widespread. But it's not exactly critical. And you need an extracting fan at the back of your enclosure regardless. Because pressure overrides velocity, you can't expect the air from a tower cooler to cruise through the rear grill of your PC on velocity alone.

[@bliglum]

@@SianaGearz It's basically a fancy stock cooler.

[@SianaGearz]

@@bliglum if stock coolers had thermal impedance 4 times lower than they do and a good airflow to noise ratio like this, there wouldn't be an aftermarket cooler market. Tower coolers have a bit of a problem that they like breaking mainboards in mail transit because the weight is at a distance, lots of leverage, so computer manufacturers don't like using them; but they're spectacularly cheap to build for a given cooling capability. This is how they became the main type in the DIY and enthusiast market. They aren't inherently better, they just make sense for DIY builds.

Im actually thinking of using one. aftermarket car radiator was so cheap compared to pc rad and i dont have to upgrade everything when i use bigger cpu. I even thinking of using heat exchanger inside the case and putting a semi truck radiator in a different room since the cpu heat was heating up my room. Even if using single 360mm radiator was enough, this line of thinking kept coming back.

[@JustAGuy85]

I know it's a joke but here is why I've always preferred air cooling. It's not about how much heat you can dissipate... so long as it's got enough fins and pipes. It's about how much heat you can transfer FROM the CPU TO the baseplate of the cooler. That is the number 1 most important part of a cooler. That's why we use paste. It's why good coolers, like you can see in this picture, rise to a point in the middle... so when you screw it down, it flattens and tries to make great contact with the IHS of the CPU. If you don't have good contact, a 4 core big block radiator isn't going to have any heat from the CPU to dissipate. It's why I like the Fuma 2 Rev B. For the size, it's high quality. It's high quality enough that it does grab all the heat, it just can't dissipate enough with the fins/pipes and especially those stupid fans they come with. However, it keeps my 5900x @ 58C in the vast majority of games. 65C @ 142 watts in the CPU-z stress test. But with an EDC of 180 amps, and limitless PPT (technically, 1000 amp TDC/1000 watt PPT, aka "Asus Performance Enhancement" option turned on), it'll hit 90C @ 190 watts in Prime95 under an in place FFT @ 220-230k AVX load. Needs both more displacement with the fins and bigger fans. But I never see that in real world usage. Even when it's at 100% compiling shaders, that's usually 165 watts which puts it around 70C, I believe. I can't remember exactly. The heatsink on the cooler in this image needs to be at least twice as thick. That's why it's so cheap.... those fins are too short. But I love the design. It also has 7 pipes instead of the typical 6 pipes you see on top notch air coolers. Not sure what size they are, though. As long as those fins can cool those pipes, it may be excellent. I can't tell by looking.

[@ericshun2552]

[@satibel]

Imo Aio are too fragile, and only useful in sff, because they last 2-5 years and you don't know when the pump will fail. I bought my aircooler in 2012, in the mean time a friend using AIOs had 3 pumps fail and got back to a noctua dual tower. Low end AIO are more expensive than air cooling and unreliable, and if you're getting a high end AIO, you might as well be getting a water-cooling kit.

[@IcarusRepublique]

​@@th9986I build my first PC in 2014 and it's not often you need access to the motherboard. But when you do, it's not a pain in the ass to take everything apart just to switch out the ram. Also there's a performance difference with these new big RTX cards, those thing spew alot of heat and having 2 or 3 120M fans + radiator right at the edge of the case isolates the heat very well. There is a significant difference in idle temperature of AIO Vs Air-cooler. My CPU idles at 30-40 degrees C and never goes above 60-65 when gaming. The only thing is reliability but I've had this NXZT AIO for about 3 years now so it'll eventually stop working. If you have the money, AIOs are definitely the way to go.

I think this has the same case of cooling a non blower gpu If there isn’t enough airflow in the case, it’ll just keep on recycling the same hot air

[@creaper120]

Just did some research on this claim, turns out for most RAM and MOSFET hest syncs it will clear. I am seeing 50mm and ~70mm clearance which clears my xtreem argb tforce RAM and my MoBo cpu power delivery modules. I am a big fan of air cooling for most use cases and see most AIOs as a purely asthetic reasons. That being said, I also saw no listings for this product and it seems to underperform to its claims in some reviews but get similiar performance.

Paired with Noctua fans, having a quiet 13th gen Intel cpu that’s not over heating.

Will it fit in an itx case?

[@simonhoel2704]

it looks like it runs parallel to the gpu so probably.

[@thelittle]

problably not, its a lot bigger than the motherboard itself (ITX boards have 17cm, this cooler have 24). Most ITX cases are made as small as possible, so doesnt make sense to leave so much free space on the board sides.

[@user-um6ct5nj1x]

I would consider using it, if it had an AM5 mount.

It says it works with AM5 on Amazon

Cool now I can show off five fans instead of anything else. Just a big wall of fans. Glad I have a window on my pc lol.

[@simonhoel2704]

just go for an aio if you do want liquid cooling. there is only one advantage and no one ever mentions it. its that your radiator doesn't have to be in ane specific area in the computer. other than that you need way more equipment to remove heat as efficiently as any good cooler. i used water cooling but its because it looks cool and my cpu and gpu geta very toasty and i have a small motherboard.

[@metroplextitan8816]

Well radiator shouldn't be in bottom (for case that support it like fractal torrent) because pump being the highest point in the loop with kill it very quickly with all air bubbles rising up there. But yeah front or top shouldn't matter wherever it fits

[@CrocoDylianVT]

when I heard the price my jaw literally dropped could be nice if I could actually buy it

[@cranbers]

i've been using air coolings that have heat pipes for 15 years at this point, back when it was a solid heat sink with minimal fans stuck directly to the CPU I could see water cooling make sense. But heat pipe technology changed the game.

[@tech-ishbrad183]

dude... as an obsessively technical, hands-on hardware technician and anti-consumerist lil' rebel... I watched 7sec of this, switched to Amazon and ordered one lmao been waiting 17 years for this design to be done *well* tho, kinda expected it from zalman tbh 😂

[@jianyu77]

I’ll stick with my custom Watercooling loop thank you very much

[@K4P53R]

The clip of the liquid leaking isn't water so it doesn't break any components.

[@brettkruskie]

Problem is lateral cooling isnt as efficient as water cooling.

Bruh. Last short before sleep went wrong

[@soggy9648]

imagine blowing heat back into your CPU and VRMS

[@BrickDaddy420]

Plenty of air coolers do just fine with this fan orientation. I'm sure having the fan pointed towards the back of the case is the better way to do it though, so the only use case I can think of here is if you're wanting something that will fit in an SFF case? I do find it hard to believe that this air cooler can out-perform water cooling, and frankly I think a water cooler looks a lot better than this thing

[@metatronmen2431]

If your watercooling system leaks and burns your PC is because you bought the cheapest one money can buy or was time to upgrade your PC.

[@tibib0ss]

This needs holes in the side of the case which is a forgotten concept nowadays.

[@kachiedits6231]

I just use my refrigerator to cool my pc 🗿🍷

[@SpamLRBLX]

In my opinion, water cooling is still better.

[@bigbuba5212]

If you live in a cold area just stick it outside or something

[@DecayedPage]

Wouldnt turning around the fans and having them expell air into the main airflow be better? It would probably also cool the heatsinks of the mobo and the ram better

[@user-ox5yb8lr8o]

hello bro

[@user-ur7ux4wl9j]

doesn't matter how much watt it can dissipate if whole radiator still being heated by 300+ watts GPU below, watercoolers (especialy front mounting option) exists for a reason

[@keithforce1470]

Just Purchased this JK13K. got it installed successfully. you can still take the ram off without removing the heatsink unless memory ram sticks is a little wider. vrm temp 43 degrees celsius.system 34 degrees celcius. not bad. don't need aio since i don't overclock my cpu. i just let the system auto overclock during pc games. i replaced stocked fans to keep my Cooler Master MasterFan SF120M ARGB Premium Square Frame Fan. so far no issues on intel core i7 12gen 12 core cpu. mx-6 thermo paste for better heat connectivity. yeah i had to order it. not in usa yet :(

[@skarfacegaming243]

I’d either have to sacrifice my gpu or my ram sticks to be able to fit it 😭 the space in my pc a little awkward

Noctua NH-D15 w/ 3 fans is my favorite air cooler, and this one I might have to try out.

Yeah......NO. The reason I switched to AIO is that they leave more clearance, and that cooler looks like it will make it worse.

[@jamegumb7298]

Most normal heatpipes go up to 220 watt, they have a hard limit of a about 250. For 265 to keep actually cool you need thick heatpipes with a lot of liquid. That seems awfully cheap for what you should get.

[@kd7bwb12]

Macintosh is doing 28,300 GeekBench without liquid cooling.

[@parentshateme_]

the clip at the beginning made me physically revolt

[@majormajor9672]

This has been tried in the past - in fact my i7-2400k from way back had a top-down blower style cooler. With the rest of the components getting hotter and hotter, you really need to make sure that the air coming from the top is the cool air and not just recycled sloppy 2nds from your GPU - which likely operates at a higher thermal envelope than your CPU...

[@nifty6486]

am i the only one wondering if its a good idea to have top-down fans pushing the warm air through the rad onto the board? edit: i guess you could turn the fans to be pulling though it but that is way less efficient
