Not sure if Dawid was using Amazon US or Canada, but in Canada the last time I checked you couldn't even buy that ancient turd of a CPU cooler. Also, the cooler Dawid bought is actually about the same price as the Amazon junk cooler and much better. Funny enough, the ARGB version of the Peerless Assassin 120 SE is cheaper on Amazon Canada right now than the non-RGB version, but isn't "Amazon's Choice".
"A hemorrhoid on taco night" made me laugh way more than it should have. Love your work Dawid.

Ironically enough, the Peerless Assassin is actually one of the best air coolers in this price range. Gamers Nexus put it through its paces with their test and it came pretty close to matching the Noctua NH-D15 in terms of cooling performance. I think it might be due to you not having used the second fan as well as using the stock CPU fan curves that caused the excess noise in the system.

Yeah, I watched the video by Gamers Nexus so I thought the same thing. Until I bought it. I have it paired with a 5800x so I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt when it comes to mediocre thermal performance, but the fans really ain't great. Max fan speed I'm running them at is about 50%. After that, they start to get real noisy and produce a high pitched whistling kind of sound when they're at 70%. Good thing about it has a lot of thermal mass so it gets away with low fan RPM most of the time, and for the price it's still an absolute steal.

*"Amazon's Choice"* is determined by an AI algorithm of everything from number of product returns to number of product interactions (i.e. Q+A, average review length, etc). This is why Amazon's Choice is not always the highest rated item. Amazon isn't trying to find the _best_ performing item in a category, they're trying to find the item most customers will accept and be content with.

"Light up like a hemorrhoid on taco night" really got me😂
I used some SYY thermal paste on my laptop about 2 years ago. Still going really well in terms of thermals. My only advice is that it's a bit thicker/denser than I'm used to so spreading is a bit difficult. I'd advise spreading it manually with the included tool on something like a laptop rather than just sending the screws home and sending it - it feels like it'd bend the board before spreading nicely
Avoid Crucial if you're in Canada. If anything goes wrong, they'll ship you a replacement and you WILL get charged brokerage and duty. My SSD died and decided just to toss it as the fees would cost more than buying another (not Crucial) drive.

I rather get a brand name cooler since even Noctua the kings of air premium got options worth the extra $10. If AMD stock coolers where just a tiny bit better at keeping the CPU's from dying a early death? I mean it is so close for the stock cooler to handle a 5600G without fan noise and worries about the chips dying earlier then it has to.

Noctua is still the way to go if you want no compromises with air cooling. Nothing wrong with going cheaper if you're not going to use the coolers full potential. You can also buy a 120mm or 140mm AIO for $30 to $40 to save space with AMD's G-series CPUs. If you seriously can't afford $100 for an air cooler you seriously don't need to be dealing with computers either.

You are correct...swap the GPU with the 6600 and use that money saved to put in a 5600X. That system would be well optimized. The Crucial SSD is a great budget option and I have the P2 version in my media server. Honestly anything that can read/write over 1.5K MB/s is fine. Standard Windows stuff and gaming is totally fine with PCIE Gen 3.
ngl that cpu cooler is actually pretty good if you can fit it in your build, the only downside is the fan noise on the lower tier cooler, but you can easily swap them out for more silent fans

If you can pick up the Thermalright on sale, which has been happening a lot lately, and have the fans lying around, then it's a great deal. But once you start buying fans, it's putting you close to the price of other coolers. Right now, on Amazon, the black edition of the 120SE is $37usd. If you pair it with a couple of Arctic P series fans, there's another $20. At $57, would I spend the extra $8 and get a Deepcool AK620? Probably. But I'm not everybody. Personally, I got the Peerless Assassin on sale for $32, and bought a 5 pack of the Arctic P series fans. 2 fans replaced the cooler fans, and the other 3 replaced case fans. That setup has worked great for me.

LOL that color scheme for the PSU sleeved cables reminds me instantly of a popular "Bond NATO" watch strap I had.
The fan on the cooler likely sounds awful due to how it's mounted. They're designed to be in a "push" configuration, with the exhasut side of each fan directly touching the fin stacks and an air gap on the intake side, but you have it clipped to the back of the first fin stack in a "pull" configuration, which will lead to turbulence since the blades are spinning right up against the fin stack with no air gap.
Thanks for another great video! I have the peerless assassin 120mm white RGB version on a R9-5950X using noctua thermal paste (cause I’m afraid of liquid cooling). It’s idle at 39C and gets as high as 70C under a heavy load. It’s not a bad cooler for an “Amazon’s choice” product. I was very surprised with its performance.
I unironically used nothing but MF120's and MF140's in my build, along with a PL360Flux from Cooler Master as well. I went with a Corsair RM750x to cut down on noise so my computer isn't a spaceship. They're not bad fans at all! The ARGB LED's are very vibrant.
I bought the same exact thermalright cooler, and it's incredible good. I also didn't like the fans but luckily i had 2 spare artic fans and now it's incredible x2
I used the defused rgb strips from airgoo. I like them and they were a cost I appreciated
I have used a couple of the peerless assassin 120 coolers in builds. I did swap the fans to some swiftech units I had on hand and it's an amazing cooler for the money

My 10 y/o wanted RGB in her PC rebuild for Christmas, and knowing nothing I bought the same RGB strip kit - although mine may have been older, as there was no sticky, just magnets. I had a few issues with a couple of the magnets pulling out, so had to glue them back in, but no issues at all with the RGB, it looks much brighter than yours, and has never randomly blinked off; even when the 10 y/o has buggered off on holiday with Grandma for 2 weeks (Disney, Florida), and left the system running with the screen switched off, until I spotted it nearly a week later. Might be worth checking it isnt a power saving feature on the mobo. In a (crap) black, Borg-esque Cube case, they look pretty awesome. TBF, the case itself looks awesome, but half the board mounts werent tapped and in the end, after two broke, I drilled all of them out and fitted industry standard - as they also werent standard thread size or pitch.
i actually use the cpu cooler but the black version of it and im really happy with it. running a r7 57x and easy under 60 degrees PS. i threw the original fnas out and used my corsair fans i had laying around for the cooler
I mean, some of the recommendations are actually pretty good. Both the Peerless Assassin and the Crucial P3 are insanely good pieces of tech for their value.
Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm blown away at the sponsorships you've been getting lately. Keep up the good work Dawid. Always a fun watch!
I got same sleeved cables, mine weren't sticky, I feel cheated! Also they were so stiff I had to hang them on a radiator in order to make them flexible enough for installation. Easily the most entertaining KZread channel ever
I have those case fans. I found them pretty good. The ARBG is very nice. OMG, I almost stopped breathing from tears of laughter when you said “Brighter than a hemroid on a taco night.” 😂😂😂😂
Very entertaining. I had to watch it twice. Love your content.
"light up like a hemarrroid on taco night"....and my entire mouthful of tea is now in and around my keyboard!
When I`m looking to buy something on amazon, and I`m not looking for a vary specific brand or product, or when I don`t specificly want the absolute cheapest of whatever thing I`m looking for, I tend to just go for the amazons choice option, and honestly Jeff hasn`t ever steered me wrong this far... It`s no shock than, that his picks were mostly solid
the fresh paste will usually perform very similar to other pastes, but the noctua will do its job still fine in a couple years.
Honestly this is the kind of upgrade that makes me feel like im a kid again just trying to get whatever i could afford to run better
I laughed the entire time. The turns of phrase and the one-liners are top notch. Jesus Christ--subscribed!
I cracked up at the title dawid 😂😂😂 your a legend
I actually used that exact power supply for around 4 years, and I bought it used even. I only don’t have it anymore because I sold the PC it was in when I built a new one. It never had an issue with a gtx 1060 6gb and an i3-4100 (which was eventually upgraded to a R5-2600x)
Just a nice simple fun build 👍
Thankyou for blurring the addition of the thermal paste. As we all know it's GOT to be the perfect amount of thermal paste 😆
I love the TR Peerless Assassin! So cold for so cheap!
If this was a build I was working on, I'd take the extra / unused CPU cooler fan and mount it up top as intake to feed the cooler with fresh ambient air. Especially because the front fans are blocked off. And before anyone comments, yes, top intake is fine.
this channel never fails to deliver
I really like how your hair has gone from a Volbeat/Rammstein look to a full on Cradle of Filth/Lamb Of God style.... 🤔 rock on buddy,... rock on 🤙
