Highlights
Quality
Have used arctic brand coolers before and have always been happy with the results and this does the job perfectly too.
Very good quality for the price and very quiet
I removed the sticker on top of the cooler in my photo, it normally comes with the blue one shown in the promo images.
No problems with the fan at all, was easy to install.
Price
Started years ago with a i3-4360 and the stock intel fan.
Packaging/appearance
Was thinking of doing a small form factor build so grabbed this.
Competitiveness
Works better than expected compared to original intel cpu fan.
Fit easy with a i3 8100 8th gen intel.
I replaced a 10-year old intel cpu fan and this component was really easy to fit and is very quiet.
Running an i3-4170 it'll hit 79 degrees when stress tested with this cooler, the intel cooler peaked at 81.
