hey i know this video is 9 months old but i just got this exact cooler and i was a bit lost but this tutorial is crazy good and very easy to understand, congrats man

[@darkspyro1991]

step by step with good view and straight to the point i like this a lot

[@bruiseleroy008]

Thank you!!!

Awesome video dude. Really professional, can't believe you don't have more views. Well, it's a numbers game, just keep at it and your channel can't do anything but grow. You may want to check your camera settings, though. There's a blurriness to the video that is either a low shutter speed or some framerate issue. Nothing major, but distracts from the overall top-notch production.

[@bruiseleroy008]

Wow, greatly appreciate the kind words and feedback. And you’re right, I did have the incorrect shutter speed settings, which I didn’t catch till I was done with the build 🤧🤧🤧

Takes me back, Bro. Spent summer in college as a paid student Comp Lab tech. New director wanted to flex, so after we did a thorough cleaning and memory upgrade of a lab of 30 beige PC-DOS CPUs, he wanted them to hang vertically under the desks as he thought it looked too messy above and would be cool. We, including the Head of the MIS Dept Lab strongly warned against this, but we spent 2.5 weeks reconfiguring & networking all of them again for this. We did testing on a few, but were not given more time. Sure enough later- students started complaining of getting drive failures for all of them one by one. A lab full of blood red blinking failure lights. Shut down the lab, undo the whole disaster, and redo all 30 back like it was when we finished the first time...The horror!! This nice build helped heal a lot of scars that one caused. Thanks LoL! 😂 DJ xSUBn ({ ¬_¬})

[@bruiseleroy008]

Wow, I’m over here picturing the work needed to mount all 30 PC’s and undo all of that work…2.5 weeks!!! 🤯🤯🤯 TY for sharing

[@futurespoon]

great video! I'm building my first pc with this fan and this was a helpful follow-along for me, thank you!

[@eugenebebs7767]

Nice build. Would be nice to know what CPU thermals are under full load since I'm planning to buy the same pair.

[@latro666]

Thumbs up and a comment for the algorithms. Thanks!

Hi I have got a new Pc build with intel 14700k from an offline shop. Have to use it mostly for video edits and causal gaming. He has paired the CPU with Assasin X 120 Refined SE ARGB since I was on a tighter budget. I am new to the PC building domain and after researching over a bit, I am getting the impression that this air cooler might not suffice for my needs. It's better suited for an intel i5 series or any cpu with a tdp of less than 100 watts. I am really confused, shall I get it replaced with a Liquid AIO setup or just be content with this for now?

[@АртёмСмолин-п5н]

Hello dude 👋 Backplates are metal or plastic?

[@deathstarkit]

how plastic back feeling itself? is it deform?

[@AwesomeRyanGame]

How did it preform?

[@ofon2000]

May I ask which RGB software you used to get the RGB working? Or did you use the BIOS?

[@bruiseleroy008]

I am using the software that came included with my MSI motherboard. Once you connect the RGB header to your motherboard, the fan will automatically match your light settings. Let me know if you have anymore questions!

[@ofon2000]

@@bruiseleroy008 Thank you! looks like I won't be able to use the same thing as you since I'm going with the Gigabyte X670 for the 7700x. Good to know yours is working well though!

[@WhiteZelda]

Is there any way to configure the RGB without the pin connected? I have a very basic motherboard with no RGB port on it.

[@bruiseleroy008]

I think you will need some type of RGB controller. Since your motherboard does not have that function, there are separate RGB controllers available 👌🏽

[@wesbtrm]

Sata powered ARGB controller will work for you.

[@charlesdavid3332]

Hi, I have a question : can you measure the red rubber spacer for AMD CPU ? Because I plan to buy this CPU cooler but I don’t want red into my config. Thanks 🙏

[@donatospinelli4963]

Hi, how many clips to fix the fans are there?

[@wantered5502]

I have B450 Aorus Elite and i have a problem. where should i connect 5v ARGB Cable please help me

[@bruiseleroy008]

It looks like the RGB headers on that board is located on the bottom left corner

[@ronalcasid3844]

Can you confirm not needing the 4 pin CPU cable? I have the same motherboard but with Wifi and a 12600K.

[@bruiseleroy008]

Yes, it has been working completely fine without the extra 4-pin power cable. I upgraded to an MSI Pro b660m motherboard, also leaving out the additional 4-pin cable, working perfectly fine 👌🏽

[@umutgenc1]

Did you buy it? And if it is yes, can you type please the temps for idle and load

[@truyenaudiodemkhuya]

i use i5 13600k, can this fan decrease the heat when play game?

[@bruiseleroy008]

Yes, it can, especially when compared to a stock Intel cooler. I use it with an i7 12700k which isn’t too far from what you have, and this fan is great!

[@truyenaudiodemkhuya]

@@bruiseleroy008 do u need other fan to lower the heat?

[@bruiseleroy008]

@@truyenaudiodemkhuya you can for sure attach another fan at the back for a push/pull configuration. Could make a little difference, if any.

[@adriennewong5680]

Will the fan touch the ram that is closest to it? I have 4 sticks of ram (Corsair VENGEANCE RGB PRO series DDR4 memory). Will there be enough clearance?

[@Rancid_Ninja]

You.can offset the fan as long as your case has the space, I had to put the fan above the ram slightly offset with the same ram but it still cools my 5800x3d great

[@Rancid_Ninja]

Didn't realize this was a slightly different model, but should be similar, I have the peerless assassin 120

[@bruiseleroy008]

On my motherboard, the fan still has ample clearance from the left most ram slot 👍🏽

can we add another fan to the cooler?

[@bruiseleroy008]

Yes, you can add an additional fan for a push/pull config, just need to find the right adapters to attach the fan…

[@raymondlee4077]

how is the temperature read?

[@bruiseleroy008]

Temperatures are very good in gaming and stress tests/benchmarks. I don't think I've seen my i7 12700k pass the low 70ºC's 😄👌

[@3nertia]

Can this be installed in any other orientation?

[@kikunn7347]

Can this handle a 5700x？or 5800x?
