Pros

The cooler is completely silent even set at max speed (800 rpm) it's cheaper than a noctura, very quiet, and does an awesome job of keeping things cool. As it's starting to become summer my computer room becomes quiet toasty with all the machines runn... Read More

It fills out my rather large case nicely. Good airflow case helps tremendously. Mount fans in a push/ pull configuration with a 3rd case fan pulling out the forced air through it.

This is absolutely fantastic for me. If that's what you're going for, great. No complaints at all. below is a very detailed review.

But as in long term lasting, the fans start to get a little bit louder and then to the point where you question if maybe watercooling isn't such a bad idea, please scythe, if you are reading this.
