Overall solid cooler. Dont be afraid to buy!
Good cooler. Works amazing with push pull fan setup. Alittle weak with just one fan for my i7 8700k but with two its cooling super well! I havent even touched 80c since install.Install required a full system teardown so get ready to be in your pc for a bit.Overall not the worst process definitely could’ve been worse. My only complaint lies with the included thermal paste as its complete garbage.

Worth it
Installation is a p.i.t.a. because of the poor instructions. The mounting bracket is questionable, dont feel 100% secure or if it sits completely on the cpu(get more thermal paste). Connections are not the best you have to make use of adapters provided. Rgb lighting is... rgb i mean it lights up what else is there? Was prepared for the worse when powering up, BUT!!! than I monitored my cpu temp and it keeps it just under 40c° with the fan running at low rpms when just doing basic tasks. Last thing is how impressed on how much air the fan moves at high rpms and how quiet(not as loud as other cheap brands)when doing so. I ended up purchasing more Pccooler fans just because of the noise level and air it moves compared to other cheap brands.

Fits lian lee dynamic (with 2mm to spare). Heat pipes could be ground a bit better.
I am happy with the purchase overall. I am using this cooler on a Ryzen 3600 and a x570 motherboard.PROS:Installation was easy.The RGB looks great.The cooling is adequate for the Ryzen 3600. In Prime my test his about 85 cel which is acceptable.Cons:The bottom of the cooler could be machined a bit better. This cooler is the type where the heat pipes actually contact the CPU. In a really good quality cooler, the aluminum base and the copper pipes would all be machined to be exactly the same height. This cooler, the copper pipes are a fraction of a mm taller than the aluminum base. This means that the aluminum part of the cooler does not actually touch the CPU. This does not seem to have a profound effect on the 3600, but if you have a higher end CPU that pulls more watts, it could be a issues. Full disclosure: I contacted the company about this and they offered a partial refund for the product.Overall, I am very happy with the purchase given that there are only a few air coolers that can fit in the lian lee dynamic. The partial refund was a nice touch.

Great cooler. Annoying installation
The cooler looks great and performs well. My Ryzen 5 3600 would hover around 70 when playing games with the stock cooler. This one runs very quietly and has my CPU barely pushing 55 degrees. The only complaint is that the installation had to be one of the most finicky things I have done in a while. The instructions were clear but just wish the cooler was easier to install. After installed however, it does sag a bit for me. Not much but is noticable. Overall, would recommend though.

Nice rgb heatsink that syncs really well with others!
Very nice heatsink for cases not taller than 155mm in clearance. The rgb in the heatsink matches really well with my rgb case and fans. However, mounting the cooler wasn't easy, since the manual is not very clear, though I figured it out with time. Also, as stated other reviewer the fan clip is not compatible with regular 120mm fans, only with the rgb fan that came with it due to having a different kind of frame. Even though the fan clips weren't compatible, I still managed to switch the rgb fan clipping it with custom made wire. I surely recommend anyone who is into rgb air cooler.

Need better thermal paste
This cooler is a descent cooler for the price. It was not the most difficult cooler I have installed but it was certainly not easy as well. The provided thermal paste was not good. If you are looking to get this cooler invest in a good brand for thermal paste. The plate and pipes were quite uneven so a little extra paste may be needed and also make sure to manually spread the thermal paste across the entire cpu as the uneven-ness of the cooler plate will not spread it evenly for you. Once I got my compound right the cooler seems to be doing well. I will say this in closing I do like the cooler and for the way I run my system it is doing fine but if you plan to overclock and run higher than stock voltage consider a different option.

I'm impressed
Well, much to my shock, this was actually a really amazing cooler. Kept an 8700K chilly and stayed under 60 when under load. The preset RGB patterns on the controller could be a bit nicer, and the lack of any sort of alternate controls (such as a remote) was a letdown, since once it's in your case it's not exactly easy to keep it accessible while staying out of the way. However, it is an addressable header so if you have an ARGB header on your motherboard, make use of it because you'll likely benefit from it. At the end of the day, in my use case I just needed it to cool a CPU and be purple while it does it, and it did just that.

great cooler for the price
The bottom of the cooler could be machined a bit better its not all flat on the bottom, this is easily fixed with some sand paper or adding enough thermal paste to cover the cracks, the ARGB on the cooler can be controlled through a variety of software I used MSI dragon center. Temps are very good, i have a Ryzen 5 5600x that stayed at a chilly 59C under full load. idle temps are 36C.
