That's if you can get one. I bought one from aliexpress, they sent me the single fan 4 heatpipe version when I ordered the dual fan 6 heatpipe version. Seller wouldn't cooperate, ali gave me a partial refund. I bought another one from a different seller, they sent me the right one this time but it was completely destroyed. the fan was cracked and there was a big dent in the middle of the bottom of the cooler (where it contacts the CPU) so it's not really usable because you can't get proper contact. I gave up and bought a Wovibo cooler, which cost a little bit more, but also has a shit ton of RGB if you like that, and it was actually packaged properly and I was sent what I had ordered. Very good performance for the money. Can be a bit difficult to install sometimes but can't complain for the £23 GBP I paid for it.

Gammaxx 400 is similar or better than the classic hyper 212

Dawid - Hey Dell, your cooler did ok. Dell - WHAT?

Considering that Zalman was a premium cpu cooler leader in the industry before cpu cooling became a hobby for most pc enthusiasts I'm not surprised their lowest end cooler still performs with acceptable results for a oem replacement. It's also good to see the gamix tower from deep cool is the best for under 20. Great video.

Deepcool are up to 400 version of their tower with RGB fan for £18, but they also do a 120mm AIO for £39

As a non-cooler expert, it's really helpful to hear the compare/contrast of different mounting styles and hardware. Nice video.

Yeah Deepcool is solid. I used their coolers (higher end ones than these) in my builds and it's great. Their "GamerStorm" sub-brand is also pretty good (thermal paste and whatnot)

Great video as always. Enjoyed the surprise guest.

The best sub £20 air cooler i bought and i'm still using it, is an Antec A40 Pro. Tbh, i would say it's on par with the Hyper 212 although it's cheaper.

quality content as usual, Dawid!

That tower cooler seems to might be a good friend of mine!

Great video. It looks like that Deepcool tower cooler is pretty decent. For like $5 more there's a version with 4 heat pipes vs 2 which would presumably cool even better.

another banger dawid, loved this one.

Yay, a new Dawid video! Let's have a cup of coffee and watch this.

Nice video, I had to replace my HP Omen stock cooler with a cheap BeQuiet2 which worked a treat. I do think the temp results would be slightly different if mounted in a case as the tower cooler can be positioned to blow out the case where-as all the other coolers just blow hot air down on the motherboard within the case, recirculating the hot air which would add to the tower coolers overall winning position

Love your content man!

Ah yes, the biweekly dose of Linoooode. Thanks, Dawid.

That’s hella interesting! Thanks for commenting 😊

Yo this video deserve more attention !! Aweosme info

I have a similar Arctic cooler in my case for an AM4 socket. My fan is much quieter than yours, subjectively admittedly. I have used several of these and all are quieter than what you show. Artic case fans tend to be quiet and long lasting as is the Alpine series and AC does honor the 6 year warranty. Which i seriously doubt the others would do. Also due to the down draft of this style of low profile cooler, they have the added benefit of cooling the VRM. And it does amke a difference.

I bought the tower cooler because of this video. Thanks Dawid!

Now this, this is really interesting

I buy used coolers from the mid 2000s - 2010s because you can get a decent 6-heatpipe 120mm cooler for like $10 I've bought old Zalman coolers (CNPS 9900A/9700), fully copper ones

That was surprisingly interesting! The results were not at all what I thought they would be. You should do a round up of the best looking coolers from the next tier up and also move to an 8 core cpu to really get some heat up in them. Maybe a 10700k or something like that if you have more control and options with Intel chips and mounting hardware.

I think the dell cooler performed that well because it was the only one that had screws leading to more evenly spread force against the cpu heat spreader which propably lead to better heat antisipation

Am always late watching these. I save them for the work week.

I replaced the stock cooler on my 9400F with a Be Quiet basic tower cooler. I think the biggest benefit was the reduction in noise. I think that was the rationale behind buying it as the temps weren't that bad with the Intel leaf blower.

I bought a Zalman cooler, different than the one featured here , and it's fantastic. Has better temps than the previous cheapo cooler I had (Thermaltake UX100)

I was impressed by the little zalman cooler, it's not even the copper version I've used zalman coolers for ages, the copper 6 heatpipe versions

Michael Dell must love you mate :) Good video Andrew from Down under

I was hoping that the Dell cooler would make its apperance, i was not disappointed, thank you Dawid!

When he said he had another one I knew instantly what I wanted it to be. I’ve used a dell stock cooler my entire life. It’s Way louder then you would expect a fan to be, especially when it spins up all the way

I got a Be Quiet Pure Rock cpu cooler for my prebuilt around $30-40 and it's been fantastic. Haven't seen any reviews for it, but it works wonderfully and it's well quiet the acoustics are much lower than the intel e waste that my PC came with.

i mean i expected the dell cooler to be loud but DANG THAT WAS LOUD

Should’ve documented the fan speeds, I would’ve loved to see those for a true comparison. That aside, awesome vid, and lol @ the Dell jet engine.

Had zalman quiet cooler back in the day, wicket cooler indeed used for over ten years.

Good video Phil.

great content..love u dawid

I have a kitted out Dell optiplex 3090 with six fans in it. I come from a time when having a lot of fans on your computer was cool. In my opinion, the hum it makes is absolutely amazing.

A note about that tower cooler: I put one on a Core 2 quad Q9650 machine I owned two years ago, and it did admirably. That same cooler, CPU, and motherboard are presently living in a new tower in a friend's business office, running 24 hours a day, and the cooler fan is still working fine. I think it's probably the best inexpensive cooler out there.

I love how he says PC cooler cooler.

"Starting off with the Pc Cooler cooler" had me laughing 😆

I have that Gammax 200t. Its on a i5 2500k running at 4.6ghz pulling 1.38 vcore. Ive always loved that little 13 dollar cooler, been rocking it in my older PC builds for a while.

On deep cool coolers you can twist those mounting pins like screws to get them out. Easier than making a lever with screwdriver and you do not risk of breaking them.

arctic isnt under $20

He's got kurzgesagt posters in the background, its really cool to see another fan of that channel!

Not surprised with the results as Deep cool makes decent coolers.

The reason why the stock Dell cooler ran better than expected was because it has been used in a open case scenario. In Dell's prebuilts, there's not much airflow available for them to breath, hence the high temps.

I have the arctic. I bought it not because it was cheap but because I needed a low profile cooler. Like really low profile. Less than 4 inches tall. It works perfectly. I’ve daily used it for gaming for the past 2 years. It actually cools similar to the noctua version for a good amount cheaper.

You should do the next price bracket, like a comparison of several $50 air coolers

Great video, definitely surprised by the added guest cooler. Would have been nice to have seen the stock cooler that comes with the i5-10400F. When I built a system with the i5-10400F I just bought the stock black cooler from the 11th gen for £10.

The CO version of the Arctic cooler means it uses a ball bearing fan, hence why it is a little louder. CO stands for continuous operation, meant for always on reliability. The rest of the coolers all use either basic sleeve/rifle bearings, or fluid bearings (the Deepcool models). As to the Dell cooler, it performed so well because the fan is insane (they used to be Deltas, but I can't say for sure that is what the one in the video is). That's why Dell hides the fan curve with it, because on their systems, the curve is tuned for noise performance, at the expense of CPU temps. By using it on another board, it no longer is limited to roughly 60% PWM, like it would be on an actual Dell system. So the results are basically invalidated for two reasons.

I will always go tower if the case can fit it, keeping air flowing in one general direction is preferable to those low profile coolers that disrupt the flow with cross wind.

I have one of Arctic's cheaper coolers in an old Athlon 64 X2 build I have lying about, along with a matching... 90mm exhaust fan. They are both nice and quiet, I do like those and they look nice matching.

I went AIO for my 3700x, decent mid-range one for not a huge amount of money - my room runs very high ambient temperatures a lot of the time (only so much I can do about those) and I can relate to the leaf blower air cooler analogy!

I have the Gammaxx 200T and it cools quite well i7 from 3-4 generations (the CPUs are being used in stock). The cooler is quite flimsy, but if you are careful it performs great for the price.

I picked up an interesting cooler recently for an ITX build. It's a vetroo V3 92mm tower cooler. Cutest little thing but i put it on a Ryzen 2200G and it barely broke 50C on AIDA64

My artist gf chimed in about product design on the fans, as the colour blue suggests cool, calming, and trustworthy operation. You can do some really cool just playing with colours on products.

It's fine to take noise into account. Gamers Nexus always does Noise-Normalized Thermal tests, because noise is a big concern for a lot of people.

Got the deal of the year when I bought 5 AMD Wraith Stealth coolers for 6€ each for my LED light project. worked amazing, cools more than good enough at 8V so there's hardly any audible noise.

I have the Gammax 300B cpu cooler. It was around 25$ when i bought it and it is doing a great job at keeping my i5 10400f cpu cool

Been using the Gamma archer on an intel pentium gold G5400 and it stays below 60°c even on heavy load it also cools the board/ram with a large airflow also blue is quite eye-catching but the fan can get quite noisy. 9/10 would recommend

that was great thanx

Got the 200T for my mega power Intel Quad q9400 pc . Works great 30 deg C decrease from stock Intel .

1:35 I have the same deepcool gammax 200t on my i5-8400, and running at the full 75w for a couple hours running the furmark CPU burner, it only gets to 70c, with an ambient of 22-23c

Running an x58 motherboard + 6 core 2.93 ghz Xeon x5670 in a early 2000's Antec full atx case with one 80 mm fan and the Intel stock cooler. It idles at 70c and sounds like a jet engine. Gonna have free heat in my guest house this Winter.

The Gammaxx 200T is a hidden gem in my book, performance and noise levels being impressive for the price. Used one with a mildly overclocked 2500k. 10/10 would recommend!

The arctic is my backup "just run idle" backup cooler.

I still don’t get how you have less than a million subs, you’re my favorite tech KZreadr

I have that exact arctic cooler on my 2400g. Works a treat

Holy hell that last cooler sounds like the horn of Gondor.

GAMMAXX 200T is probably the best of the budget bunch. I'm currently using a GAMMAXX 400 as some others here and it's really good.

You should have used a cheap thermal paste like arctic mx2 ,that tube costs almost like one of these coolers :)

When I first started doing pc builds I bought a few Reeven Chrono Guard coolers that I got for sub-$20 that actually performed pretty well. Kinda hard to find them anymore though.

My friend has a DC C40 which we added a 2nd fan so its a push pull config and it coosted a total or 20€. 18€ the cooker with 1 of the fans, and 2€ for a used 92mm fan because the cooler is 92mm tower, and on a 115w tdp cpu it kept it under 70c

I have a Deepcool Ice Blade 200M that is exencially the same tower as that Gammax 200T but has dual 92mm fans with it. Used it with my Phenom II X4 965 BE and then my Ryzen 5 1600X both at around 3.9ghtz all cores . Worrked well even with overclocking either cpu. Replaced it with the much bigger Deepcool Lucifer K2 just to get more comfortable temps on the Ryzen system. Debating on installing it back on the Phenom II or HP Envy Phoenix I7-4770K system. The Ice Blade 200M has about $15 CAD when I bought it and impressed me enough that I went a Deepcool RF120M Case Fan 5 pack as well when I got the Lucifer K2 and needed to replace the case fans in my system at a fair price. ($55 for the Lucifer K2 and about $45 for the RF120M 5 pack at the time)

I have the dell stock cooler from a new dell pc I got a bit ago and yes, it sounds like a jet turbine

I've been pretty happy with DeepCool products. I use their RGB fans and higher end RGB air cooler in my gaming PC and the temps are great.

Tip: Buy a used Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo. Literally just got one for 20 bucks from a friend and i couldnt be happier. Not to mention that you can upgrade to a much more powerful CPU down the road and not care about cooling. On the other hand, the DeepCool Gamma Archer and the Arctic Horse coolers surprised me. From my experience, those kinds of coolers perform about as well as the intel stock cooler (not good) but maybe thats because im working with older parts that let out more heat.

Should do a round 2
