About this item

CPU Cooler
Air Cooling
Proprietary Hive Fin System for airflow optimization, air turbulence reduction, added heat dissipation area, Jet Fin Acceleration System, and structural support.
Heatpipe Displacement Optimization allows for better and more evenly spread heat conduction on the fins compared to traditional linear alignment.
Jet Fin Acceleration System squeezes airflow and increases exhaust air speed. The increase of airflow speed in our Jet Fin Acceleration System allows heated air to leave the tower faster.

Quality!

Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2016

Verified Purchase

After sending me a very sloppy built H7, I was skeptical about Cryorig...but this H5 is pro quality in every aspect. The attention to detail is impressive...especially for the price.

The upgraded "MultiSeg" mounting system (not on H7) is kindergarten simple and quick. It's also 100% metal (H7 is half plastic). I did have to take out my motherboard to install, but there was absolutely zero hassle after that. No fit issues with my standard ATX mobo. Comes with high performance CP7 thermal paste.

The H5 is quite tall. Fortunately my mid tower is 8 inches wide...anything less and it probably won't fit. Also, it blocks the view to most other components, so a windowed panel or any fancy colors and lights are probably going to be blocked from view or shadowed. Comes with a properly sized (long) screwdriver.

The "slim profile" 140 mm fan is only rated 65 CFM, but it does cool better than the H7 (49 CFM). Of course, you can augment this with a pull fan on the cooler's other side...or put two full size 140 mm fans (76 CFM) for even lower temps. Fan is quiet...quieter than the stock intel fan.

Excellent 6 year warranty, but only when registered (3 years, unregistered).

Big, chunky tower cooler at an excellent price

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought this cooler a month or two before I wrote this review, and ever since I've installed it I've been able to keep my i5-4690k pretty cold at stock clocks. With the extra headroom I've overclocked to 4.2GHz and blasted it with some Prime95 tests, and even with that, it's still under 80°C. The fan does get a little noisy, but that's the price you pay for having near perfect RAM compatibility. The mounting plate itself was a bit of a fiasco on its own, but I did manage to get this thing together without messing up the adjustable mounting plate in my confusion.

I had a moment of panic when I thought it wouldn't fit inside my Thermaltake Versa N21 case, however I have about a 3mm headroom between the top of the sink and the side of my case.

I appreciate the fact that Cryorig includes some thermal paste. It's great for somewhat less thermally intensive situations. However, if you plan to overclock, don't use the included paste - get yourself some metallic paste like Arctic Silver, and you'll trim off a few degrees.

HITS:
• If you have the case height, it fits in just about any build
• Color-neutral cooler goes with just about any build scheme
• Surprisingly quiet at idle despite the thin fan

MISSES:
• MultiSeg mounting system, while clever, is still a little confusing - some parts also tend to stick, so sometimes it feels like you're breakign something when in reality you're not
• Fan is quite loud at full throttle (but this is to be expected from such a thin fan)
• Included paste is not particularly good at getting the heat from a hot processor to the heatsink itself

Great cooler!

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2016

This cooler is great. I started out with a cryorig m9i which got me a stable 4.6 GHS overclock on my i3-6300, but the load temps were averaging 78-79c in a 22c room when I went from 1.34 to 1.35 volts for stability. This cooler dropped that down to 64-65c in a 22c room. Idle temp is now 25-26c (down from 33c) and I have room to try and reach a little higher on my oc for kicks, though I think this is a sweet spot. My CPU should last a long time with this cooler.

The fan is quiet, even when it's running near the top end of its range. The included cp7 thermal paste is easy to work with and certainly works well. I ended up using it to replace the stock paste on my gtx 1060 gpu from gigabyte and saw a 10c drop in full load temps. This version includes a hardware kit for intel motherboards and a separate one for amd motherboards. Also included is hardware, including rubber corners, to add a second fan for a push pull setup. Also included is a screwdriver that slips through holes in the heat sink to screw the cooler down.

I mounted this on an asrock z170m extreme 4 with a gigabyte gtx1060 windforce gpu with all four ram slots filled and had no problems with clearance. The intake side of the cooler doesn't go over the top of the ram.

I've included a shot of the m9i cooler next to the h5 universal for the sake of comparison. The m9i stands at 125mm tall and the h5 is 165mm. The h5 is not standing on its hardware in the pic but the m9i is.

Great cooler and easy installation

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2017

Great cooler and easy installation. Keeps my Ryzen 1700 a chilly 30 degrees. Had to wait a while for the bracket for AM4 though, at least they were nice enough to email me back and tell me when it shipped out with tracking. Comes with nice thermal paste too, works well so far so no need to buy extra. Looks great but it is pretty big, even the universal is tall but gives room for RAM clearance. Still, make sure you do measurements beforehand.

Issue is though I bought the additional low profile XT140 fan for push pull configuration but it came with the wrong brackets.. The brackets I received are for the Ultimate. I find this really odd. The extra XT140 I bought also had a squeaky noise coming from it. So now I have an extra fan that doesn't fit and is noisy.. And because the AM4 bracket took so long to get to me, I'm outside of the return window. Kind of disappointing after spending $20 alone for the fan and $50 on the cooler.

Great product, professional look and performance!

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2016

I bought this fan for my first PC build ever, after looking at a few different types I decided to go with this one over the Hyper EVO. Personally, compared to the EVO, it has a much cleaner aesthetic with plastic coverings and overall has a very, very nice build quality.

Install was very easy, which requires using the correct mount for your socket, applying it to the board and then screwing the heat sink down through the heat spreaders. Even though some CPU coolers can be a nightmare to install, they equip you with a very nice Philips head screw driver (It looks like a very long Allen-key) which even helped me install multiple components into my computer with ease.

Performance wise it's very quiet and has done an absolute outstanding job on my PC, keeping everything cool and running smoothly. Running it with an i7-6700k.

good cooler

this is a good cooler when used on the proper cpus such as a 6600k and it kept it very cool and it was quiet. when it was then used for a 8700k it would be ok when running ok on idle but when the 8700ks clocks increased then too much heat for my liking and noise
