My rig was overheating, with my graphics card reaching 60-63C. I was looking for a cheap (but decent quality) way to cool off my rig. So I came across this fan. Since my power supply is a Thermaltake, I thought that this would be a good idea. The construction quality seems nice. The bracket connection to the fan is a bit loose, but other than that, the fan does its job. My original short circuited and caught fire the day after I installed it, but I managed to unplug my rig before the fan torched it. Thanks to Amazon for sending me a replacement. Now, my gfx card is at 57-60C.

WARNING: Before you install this fan, ensure that the + and - wires DO NOT touch each other, as that poses fire and shock hazards.

Thermaltake c5 is a good psu cooler a little loud but not to bad, definitely an upgrade than what I had Wich was a standard cooler from dell.

These heat sinks are top notch. Solid copper, providing the best natural convection heat dissipation for the money. The included thermal pads are also pretty high quality. You can't  go wrong with these.

Excellent product.

My build is a AMD Phenom IIx4 965 Black Edition CPU with a Cooler Master TX3 heatsink. The stock thermal paste was applied almost 4 years ago. My CPU temp while sitting on win7 desktop in idle was about 52 degrees Celsius with 50% fan speed. I removed the old paste using isophyl alcohol (basically concentrated rubbing alcohol: 91%) which can be purchased from any common store and found in First Aid supplies. After removing the old paste and applying the Arctic Silver 5 as best as humanly possible and blowing out all the dusk in my heatsink, I am now getting 38 degrees Celsius on the same desktop at 50% fan speed. Pretty awesome people.

The consistency of the old paste was clearly on the edge of being considered caked and practically baked bread crumb on my CPU. I definitely think thermal paste should be reapplied every couple of years if you have any hope of continuing to overclock or extending the life of your CPU.

My go to Thermal Compound. Have been using this particular compound for years now. Gives my i7  4.5ghz OC'd 6700K the goosebumps.
22c Idle, 64c Load on an NH-D15 Air Cooler.

Great stuff! Highly recommended. No need to purchase the "Exotic" Compound like Grizzly or the liquid metal variety. Noctua never disappoints.

These are a great universal thermal couple at a great price!!

I always use this stuff. It does a great job of allowing thermal transfer to occur. You can get lots of stuff that will do the job, but when I want to overclock like a beast I rely on this to create a good connection between CPU and watercooler. I highly recommend.

I am using the Cryorig R1 Universal on an Intel Core i7-6700k processor, on an Asus Maximus Hero VIII motherboard. The cooler fit is perfect and provides just enough clearance (about 1/16") for the 4 sticks of Crucial Ballistix Elite DDR4 RAM which has somewhat tall and fairly wide heat-spreaders. Plenty of clearance for the side panel of the CM Storm Trooper case as well.

At stock speeds, I'm getting 28 Celsius idle temperatures, and during heavy loading with stress tests, the CPU maxes out at about 67 Celsius. When overclocked to 4.8 GHz, idle temperatures raise to 34 Celsius and 72 Celsius respectively. Note the maximum temps are under heavy stress testing that is not indicative of normal use. Under normal use during gaming or processing and transcoding high-definition videos, CPU temperatures average 48 - 50 Celsius. These temperatures are achieved while letting the motherboard handle the fan PWM tasks on standard speed control settings.

Installation was easy and quick. The provided alcohol pad, thermal paste, and screwderiver was a nice touch. Everything provided made for a simple installation with no extra parts or tools needed beyond what Cryorig provided.

The fans are virtually inaudible inside the case with the computer running. The entire system is so quiet I have to press my ear to the case in order to hear any sound from the system at all.

The fit and finish of the R1 Universal cooler is excellent. It is truly a gorgeous looking cooler as well, I have gotten nothing but compliments on how nice it looks. So it looks great and performs excellent too. I couldn't be happier with it.

Normally, this type of product is just 'stuff'.  Most of these are usually flimsy plastic or sheet metal.
Not only is one good quality, it is a clever design.  It DOES hold 2 drives in the space of one, and it allows some mounting variations to assure that you can get the SATA plugs properly installed as well.  Although no one worries about heat with SSDs, there is still ample room between the two units for ventilation.
It doesn't take a lot of effort to fit size A in size B, but Thermaltake took the extra effort to make it fit well, for a lot of possible combinations.

The shipment for my product is really fast, only got it in about 3 or 4 days when it said a week.  The Thermaltake hard drive enclosure is really easy to use and install. Overall, the product is great and I would recommended it.

Arctic Silver tends to be the standard in keeping CPUs and GPUs cool, and this is why I bought this product. The price for this product is reasonable, and the product does not disappoint.  Thank you!

Great product so far.  I used this in a Thermaltale G21 tempered glass case, mounted the rad in the front of the case in a pull configuration so I'm getting the cool ambient air from the room and pulling it over the rad  (front of case -> fans intake -> rad -> into the case).  This definitely gave me a big boost in cooling performance.  i5-6600k at default clock saw ~ idle as low as 17 C.  (The room is a little warmer than it usually is since It's winter and I have the heat running, I assume I could get it lower if the ambient temp in the room was also lower.)  Playing PUBG and having the CPU run 95-100% util, cpu rarely goes above 35 C.  NOTE: I did not use the stock fans that came with this. I'm using my Thermaltake Riing 12 HSP fans. Which are definitely the better fans, but any 120mm will work. Use their screws though, to match the threading on the rad.

Words of warning:
The documentation isn't so great, watch a Youtube video if you're never installed an AIO, or any heatsink for that matter.

When installing on an LGA 1151 socket, YOU CAN SET UP THE CROSS BARS EITHER VERTICLE OR HORIZONATAL.  This will allow you more flexibility to reach different parts of your case with your rad depending on where you're mounting.  I had to make sure the tubes were on the top of the water block for the rad to reach the front of the case.

PLAN AHEAD.  Figure out what configuration is best for you build, case, and airflow needs.  Know what you're going for before you take the cover off that pre applied thermal paste. It's not great to take it up and off once it's already been secured down.

I have a TON of old computers that have been pulled out of service for one reason or another.  They all have had their hard drives removed for security purposes, and from time to time I found that whomever did that work also removed a mounting bracket or something that keeps the computer from being reassembled and put back into service.  When my friends at Universal Electrical Supply offered me the opportunity to review a discounted sample unit by Orico, I jumped on my Amazon Prime  Orico has made several other IT products that I own, and I figured I'd get a nice package.

This kit is great for adding a drive into a desktop with a 5.25'' slot.  The bracket itself is aluminum so it is fantastic for heat dissipation, and the mounting hardware is high quality  it took a couple of minutes to mount a drive and then get the whole kit mounted in a case, but nothing that would be out of the ordinary.  There's really not a whole lot that needs to be said about this drive mount  it's one of those basic pieces of equipment that as long as it fits the need you have and doesn't have any problems with mounting or anything, you should be good to go  I certainly was.

NOTE  this is NOT a 3.5'' mounting plate to put a 2.5'' drive in a 3.5'' hole.  Those are handy too, of course, but just be informed on what you're buying.

The thermal tape on these is great, I've been able to remove these andpeople reapply them multiple times. They do a great job cooling VRAM or motherboard components for overclocking.

This product runs cooler than the OEM Asus unit that failed.  With electronics cool is always good for extending the product life.  I rate it very high.  One note is that it is a little thicker than the original so if you slide it out of sight be sure it still fits.  For me I just lifted the furniture a little and problem was solved.  I would think thicker means more heatsink area and is why the product is overall cooler.

Good high quality product made from aluminim with a cool, sleek and very modern look and performs well.
I used this on my Dell laptop running windows 7 and it performed great with no issues noted. I noticed the transfer speeds
were good, all while charging my iphone 5 and galaxy note 2 10.1.. It's a true solid performer.

Overall this stuff has worked great and is keeping my system cool at an affordable price. I used it on 2 of my desktops I put back together and its kept temperatures at very reasonable levels. I would highly recommend it as a cost effective and easy to apply alternative to other thermal greases. The real test will be its thermal longevity in transferring heat and when I go to apply it to my laptop to bring the temps down on that one. The thermal longevity is the real reason why I bought this over other options because I had read that it's not electrically conductive and outlives all the other thermal compounds out there which means you shouldn't need to reapply it every other year like most other formulas that dry out and lose their thermal transference abilities.

My CPU temps dropped from the low 40s at idle to 30C and never go above 43-44C in full use. Before my temps would hover around 48-52C in full use of my CPU. So Ceramique's made a good and substantial difference.
