Today we are taking a closer look at another air cooler that is at the top of the Geizhals.de rankings in terms of popularity. In the following test report, you can find out whether the low price of around 20 euros (without ARGB) or around 25 euros (with ARGB) offers sufficient cooling performance. Endorfy must have cut corners somewhere to make such a price possible.
Packaging and scope of delivery
Evil tongues would claim that the very low price is already visible in the shipping box. But if it were up to me, everything could be packaged like this.
Brown cardboard with a simple black print is perfectly adequate, after all it’s all about the inner values.
And there we have a sandwich of foam-cooler-foam, which should be able to absorb most shocks during transportation.
I don’t think I’ve seen a more economical set of accessories for a long time. The mounting ring is somewhat reminiscent of the parts that were used for the 2011 base. But: it’s functional, even reasonably sustainable and it’s also completely sufficient. And it also goes some way to explaining the competitive price that this has made possible.
Assembly and installation
And although so little is supplied, we need even less to install it on an AM4 or AM5 mainboard: nothing at all!
The pre-installed metal bracket on the cooler is simply hooked into one side of the existing bracket on the mainboard before the second eyelet on the other side is fixed in place with a screwdriver.
Specifications
Before we get into the details on the next page, here is an overview of the key technical data. As always, further information can be found on the manufacturer’s product page.
