Once you get the pesky thing fitted it is well worth the effort!
The instructions could be dumbed down a bit to be honest.
As a bit of a nube when it comes to fitting non standard kit I found this not the easiest thing I’ve fitted and it took 4 attempts to get around the power supplies, memory and cables.
Now it’s in it runs a dream, it’s V quiet and is noticeably cooler in the case.
Well worth the effort and good value for money.

Fantastic value
I've had this for more than 2 years now and I can still get my CPU to idle at 20 degrees. The only thing you need to be careful of is that it's very tall so measure first, but other than that amazing value for money.

Very Quiet Cooling
Fitted this fan and heat sink to my AMD processor which had the AMD supplied fan running flat out in the hot weather and making lots of noise.
My PC is in a full size case and the side cover just touches the heat sink but closes without problems. The bag of hardware looked rather formidable but the AMD only required two metal strips and four screws. Other items were options for various types of Intel processor.
Heat sink compound was already applied to the mounting surface.
Very pleased with the quietness and doubt the fan ever ramps up to full speed now as the heat sink seems pretty efficient in itself.

Ultra quiet cooler.
This cooler has a fan with high quality bearings so it's very quiet.
The mounting system is a bit tricky on the AM4 socket but it's extremely solid.

Great product, once you work out how to assemble it!
Really great, replaced a much larger previous cooler.
Very effective and quiet.
Look up on the internet how to install the fan, the instructions are no good but once you work out how it goes on, the mechanism is actually very helpful.
Really great product, will use beQuiet a lot more in the future!

Very Pleased
Opened and pulled the heatsink out the box and didn't notice the plastic cover at the bottom that covers the thermal paste got stuck to the box so when i pulled it out and placed it on the desk i discovered the paste was everywhere on the desk!!! so be careful when removing this.
- The heatsink is very flexible, some of the fins where bent when installing.
- upon pc startup the fan alarm went off saying issue???, have no idea why, had to just disable the alarm in the bios as i could not see no issues.
+ Temps are lower by 5, so much better than the stock sink and fan.
Very easy to install, took about 10 mins after you decipher the instructions as they are not a clear as IKEAs!
but overall a good buy for a upgrade

Leaves a very nice look in the build. Lines up well does its job and the setup is easy once your decrypy the instruction manual sent with it. The metal heatsink itself bends very easily So reapplying the fan in a diffrent position will add a new permanent bend in the heatsink so you got to make sure you line the fan up exactly were you want it the first time.

brilliant
purchased this to cool my i7 6700k was previously using a seidon 120 water cooling kit wich is terrible by the way.but im very pleased with this its quite and looks great in case if you have a windowed case and more importantly keeps my cpu nice and cool.after running prime 95 stress test for 20 minutes highest temp reached was 75c and thats with an overclock to 4.4ghz and prime being very heavy test bench so would never normaly putt my computer through that much strain anyway so very impressed.Only little niggle i have is theres no antivibration mounts for the fan to mount to heat sink but not a major deal would highly recomend this product. And great service from Scan as usual.
