So, after I gave myself a new PC because my old the latest games just not clear came, of course, I also have a new radiator bought. In addition, my old Asus Silent Knight II has begun to chatter, despite care. The cooler does not come pre-assembled, but this is logical because otherwise no longer comes close to the screws used to attach the motherboard. The outfit goes by the rather simple instructions from NZXT extremely fast. ---- Important for some, there is a mounting accessory for Intel Socket 2011 available !! ---- But I did not need this for my i7 Intel Core 3770K. The backplate can be used for both an AMD and Intel for a CPU. Here the other side is used in each case, these are marked. After the suspension was mounted all happened very quickly. Cooling paste spread on the CPU. Cooler body it provided and the clamping plate screwed, so this Niegel Nail hard mounted. The two 140mm fans are clamped in each case by 2 clamping straps in the appropriate groove of the cooler body. This vibration and rattling noises are avoided. There is a Y-cable available that is equipped for mainboards with only one CPU Fan channel is intended.
I can not say whether these fans fit into any housing. In this case NZXT fan fits definitely. In my NZXT Phantom 410 he still has about 0.5 cm space to the side wall and in the case of my friend, a NZXT Tempest 410 it's the same.
The CPU is kept constant 27 to 29 degrees in idle. Under full load, he was with me at 1200 U / min 53-60 degrees. The CPU runs on 4x4,1 Ghz. So I am very satisfied. The additional case fans are sucking off the air while still of great advantage. Add to that the 140 fans are extremely quiet. Can not complain.
From me a strong buy recommendation !!! NZXT has once again built a super device here. Without wanting to make advertising here, but my NZXT Hale 82+ 850 Watt power supply is also great and the housing NZXT Phantom 410 Black / White there is nothing to blaspheme.
