Thermalright did it AGAIN - Phantom Spirit 120 EVO Review

So Thermalright has launched another Phantom Spirit, this time its the 120 EVO. The only problem is that in a market that's cluttered with the original Phantom Spirit, Peerless Assassin, Frost Spirit and Frost Commander, where does the EVO actually fit in and can the Phantom Spirit 120 EVO offer cooling performance that makes it all that much different?

@@UnderDogggee TL-S12 is fine, I just installed a few of those fans in another rig and are decent given their price point. Its not like we can't swap the fans out for something even better, especially when the AIO is around $100 or less. Pump rate is an interesting metric to go off of. Some of the best AIOs on the market right now don't have a high pump speed, while some that do are not necessarily top performers.

I want nothing more than this to be a huge success for them in the same way the new arctic aio coolers have been. Truly impressive work!

I have PS EVO, bought it with almost the same price as SE version and it is working very good with Ryzen 5800X even with stock settings of CPU, my previous cooler Grandis V3 struggled even with optimized settings for this CPU. I wanted to switch fans in future but thanks to this video I know that difference between stock fans is not huge. I wish that ENDORFY Fluctus fans would be tested as they are extremely popular in my country. Probably good curve in Fan Control is almost as good option as the SW Pro 4 fans :) Huge thanks for this fan swap test as it is extremely helpful!

Thanks for this video! I recently purchased both a Frost Spirit V3 and a Phantom Spirit EVO and was waiting for this review before deciding what to use with my 7950X. Different Perspective: Couldn’t the Phantom Spirit EVO just be used as a lower noise Phantom Spirit SE if one just limits the RPM of each fan to 1500rpm just like the SE fans are limited to rather than just allowing it to ramp up to 2150RPM? It wouldn’t be higher performing than the SE, but it would be equal performance at a lower noise floor which should be an automatic win. Seems like the Frost Spirit still wins on the 7950X though.

I actually bought this one a couple of months ago before all the reviews started rolling in. Good thing too since it seems like it's been unavailable as of late? I was using a Corsair H100i Platinum before but it would get noisy and the RGB on the cpu block was always messed up, like it wouldn't display blues correctly. Since I'm running a 9600K (at 5.2GHz) it doesn't usually have to work very hard so it's been pretty quiet especially compared to the old AIO I had. I plan to upgrade to a newer platform (probably AM5) sometime in the next year hopefully so I just considered this my first piece of a new build lol.

I bought this CPU cooler last black friday to go in my new gaming rig with a 7800X3D and it was mainly because Thermalright has so many excellent CPU cooler with extremely good value. It look really wonderful in my black and orange PC look. Also, I'm using only the fan between the 2 towers in it and the CPU never goes above 75C and is extermely silent. I could configure the fan more aggressively, but it would increase the noise and the temperature is very acceptable like it is now.

Interesting testing, especially compared to Tom's Hardware, where the EVO was always ahead at 100% Pushing Power (I guess at a normalized 38db it's a different story in the long run). What I would love to see, since the TL-C12 Fans seem to be generally good (used on Peerless Assistan, Phantom Spirit, etc). How would the TL-C12Pro compare on the Thermalright Coolers or in general use (Radiator, Case Fan etc), since they are a very very cheap option too, sitting at like 6,50€ vs the TL-C12 for 6€ (or even the TL-G12). Could that be the best new Budget Option for people, after Arctic P12 being basically the same price nowadays?

with the fan swap comment about pairing the fan to the cooler. I think its mostly the middle / pull fan. The Front only fan should line up more what we would expect. I would say this is because many fans put their blades right up to the edge of the housing, so in pull those blades cross the fin stack making noise. Using A12x25 as an example the blades are inset a little from the front of the housing. So ya agree with comment you made need fans and fins designed to work together.

Did they pull the PS 120 EVO off the market so they could sell their older models? I have not been able to find it on Amazon or any store, and I live in the US where this is normally not a problem.

How well does it handle 14700K (MX-6 paste + TR contact frame)? For gaming mostly.

did you try the evo fans on the base phantom spirit? the heatsink appears to be identical with the base PS, so either the heatsink is so optimized for the lower quality fans that the better ones doesn't do anything, or the black coating or something on the EVO is making them a less efficient heatsink. I for one, would be shocked if swapping the evo fans onto the base PS doesn't make it perform better than your original testing on it. of course this is all kind of moot anyways if you are not tightly controlling ambient temps in this testing

I might kindly suggest you retest the gaming results of the Assassin IV here, it doesn't make sense that it would be 6C behind the AK620 in gaming, but ahead of the AK620 in both 180w and 253W loads.

Should I get Phantom Spirit 120 EVO or 120 SE for my 7800x3D? Currently I have Dark Rock 4 Pro, and it's too loud for me during gaming.

Couldn't I just replace those fans with two Akasa Piranha ones? They may only spin at up to 1900 RPM, but they have a higher CFM (79.13) and more static pressure (3.04 mm H2O). They also have the same width as the Thermalright fans that go in there.

I must have found a decent config because im running the OG peerless assassin 120 SE with noctua's A12x25 and it is both quieter and cooler than stock on my 12600k. Would've loved to see you guys but A12x25's on the Phantom Spirit to get some hard data on whether my personal experience is reproduceable.

@@intriket Minimal, although im only running one fan instead of two, so with two you could probably drop it even further with 2. The big advantage is the massive drop in perceptible noise. Gonna use some more noctuas to deshroud my GPU and hopefully have a whisper quiet SFF build.

Depending on where you look each of these coolers outperforms the other Tom's says EVO, GN says Peerless Assassin, PC Analytics says Phantom Spirit, here they say Phantom Spirit SE. I'm still recommending the Phantom Spirit, its the replacement for the Peerless Assassin and the 120 SE models are the cut down versions. There's even a replacement rumored for the larger Frost Commander coming soon.

Speaking on fans………I attached an older “gentle typhoon” to a Corsair H60 AIO with its single fan Radiator. It keeps a 12600k with no power limits around 75 C at 100% load. It’s all about the fans.

So until 1500rpm the Evo seems the better pick for quiet gaming. Is the cooling of the Evo until 1500 rpm enough for quiet gaming on 7800x3d?
