I don't mind it has no RGB, to me it's about price & performance. I was surprised to see not many other coolers compared in the charts, perhaps that's because Guru3d has updated their test system recently so they're starting afresh so maybe previous data from other previously tested coolers is no longer relevant? It's a shame in a way as I personally understand cooler performance based on comparison with previous coolers, for instance I always compare cooler performance to the air coolers NH-D14 & NH-D15, probably because I own the NH-D14 and they are iconic and high performance air coolers - it's good to have some references...........would be nice to have NH-D14 / NH-D15 tested on the new system for inclusion in the graphs. (I reckon that could be why no-one has commented yet on this article, probably because they don't have many coolers to compare it to in the charts. Maybe retest a few of the iconic & popular coolers of "yesteryear" to include in the graphs. Although I agree that only coolers that are currently supported on the new sockets should be included (& can be) - Noctua always release new socket kits (free) though so they're always relevant - they're so good aren't they Noctua! ("Don't mind the Brown!")).

I do not comment anymore as I have been custom loop since late 2021. And usually just use 212 evos or equivalent for the gaming builds I do for people. They usually are budget buyers.

Is it just me, it looks like an alphacool cpu block?
