SilenX EFZ-92HA2 Effizio Low Profile 92mm AMD/Intel CPU Heatsink Cooler w/Fan

When they say that this is for moderate to low cooling needs they mean it. I wanted to use this cooler because I hoped it would work as well as the stock cooler of my amd a10-5800k but after running the newly built system, I saw temps maxing out and the cpu beginning to throttle. I had not overclocked or done anything special to the cpu. I checked the cooler and it was warm to the touch. I switched to the stock amd cooler that comes with the cpu and the temps when down 30 degrees Celsius. I would return this for a refund but honestly isn't worth the hassle. This is fairly quiet even at full speed since it has no fan controller but you are honestly better off spending a little more and getting a product that's quiet and also can actually cool a modern cpu.

I ignored a few other reviewsbut turns out its is been a great buy and it performs well its quiet and it cools perfectit does only have a 3 pin connector which a lot of motherboards use ether 4 pin or 3 pin so no issueI like it because its a universal fit and can be swapped to a AMD board if You want to switch from Intelit does have plastic pins for LGA775 but they are not the usual pins that break easy and can be removed with out breaking so I give it 5 stars it included good instructions and Heat-sink compounds

Fan working as expected good value CPU cooler for the price !! My stock AMD Phenom II fan bearings started making noise so this cooler fit the bill nicely and is doing quite well.

i didnt relise this was an intake fan other wise i would not have gotten it, but i am very glad i did it works fine with me processor which has 3 cores unlocked.

works very well or the price

Dismiss other posts. Being a hardcore gamer, my cpu cooler broke and needed a temporary replacement. This is amazing for the price and is much better than any stock cooler. Recommended

This was purchase as part of new gaming build for my son. It wasn't to be high end but the processor was decent enough that we opted for a little better cooling for the cpu. After months of struggling with random shut downs and crashes while fighting the heat build up my son and I finally swapped the fan back out for the standard OEM fan that came with the CPU. Simply amazing, the temp dropped 20C easy.The fan itself seems large enough to move enough air the shortcoming is the contact area of the heatsink. It is so small I'm not sure that it actually covers the entire CPU when locked into place. Even if it does there isn't enough material to move the heat up to the fins to dissipate.Save your money or put it towards a better cooling solution than this product.
