" ... And it runs super quiet. ... "
" ... It is very quiet. ... "
" ... No noise at all, great cpu temps and even looks cool. ... "
" ... Also fan is nice and quiet. ... "
" ... The cryorig is definitely better with a quieter fan then the 212 evo. ... "
" ... good and quiet ... "
" ... Amazing very silent on silent mode, on the other hand when you put it to work it makes noise so just you need to adjust what you want. ... "
" ... The fan is amazing, pushing lots of air at very little noise, a clear improvement over a Hyper 212, and a huge one over a Hyper T4, this heatsink can keep my 2500k at a safe temperature at 1.4v, which should say a lot. ... A clear winner over the Hyper 212 for price/performance, ease of use, aesthetics and noise. ... "

" ... Easy to install, great build quality. ... "
" ... Im currently using Cryorig's H7 and I'm here to say, for such a cheap price, this thing really is well constructed, designed to clear memory heat sinks and is fully capable of mounting in and of the four primary orientations which should be nice for anyone with a funky case or who wants to vent up and not to the back like most case tend to do. ... "
" ... Very durable as well. ... "
" ... Bought this for a new Ryzen build. ... "
" ... This Item fits very well on my H81M motherboard also in my Old Case Soprano RS101 . ... "
" ... 5) Well Constructed ... "
" ... With how much the price has dropped on it I think it's still worth paying a few more bucks to get this over the EVO if aesthetics are a concern to you. ... "
" ... Final verdict pretty much a great cooler and it doesn't wobble left and right feeling flimsy and if you have access behind your motherboard CPU installation will be a breeze or you will have to remove the board for installation. ... "
