Used to replace a similar cooler that was 3 times the price when purchased and expired a couple of days outside the warranty. Now the old cooler was certainly very pretty(lots of whirly coloured lights on the fans.) and it worked well enough until it didn't any more. This cooler concentrates just on what it needs to do, that is keep your CPU cool. Its looks are sleek and minimalist. Currently, it is keeping an AMD Ryzen 5 7600 6-core CPU at 52c for all the ordinary stuff and its fans are barely turning so it's almost completely silent. Running 7 days to die on high settings the core temp rises to 75c and you can hear the fans but it's a long way from being noisy. Installation is not as easy as it should be, purely because the documentation is pretty minimal. It comes with parts that allow it to be fitted to a wide range of AMD and Intel CPUs and MOBOS, so there are many extra parts that can be confusing. Fitting is means taking off and throwing away the existing cooler mounting clips. No clips just some mounting posts and four screws which makes it a lot easier to fit without removing the motherboard from the case and much easier to lower the block smoothly down onto the thermal compound without accidentally smearing the compound where it's not supposed to go.Just 2 electrical connectors to the motherboard. one for the block which connects to the water pump header on the motherboard and one for the fans which connects to the CPU fan header. Overall it's a great buy and terrific value for money,
