We review the Deepcool AS500 PLUS. This dual fan-based CPU cooler absolutely impresses in looks, features as well as performance. It's easily tagged as a high-end performing air-cooler with low noise... Review: Deepcool AS500 PLUS CPU Cooler
https://global.deepcool.com/product...500-PLUS-Dual-Fan-CPU-Cooler/2021/11415.shtml The fans are not the slim ones, they're 140x140x25 mm
they seemed like slim at first glance I remember prolimatech slim fans that absolutely rocked,shame no one does that anymore.
I don't know why this wasn't tested on the new CPUs like previous coolers. I also doubt it does better than D15 on overcloking conditions. Chief maybe you can clarify, thanks.
Some of the coolers are tested by me (Krzysztof Hukałowicz), and some by Hilbert. We don't share the test platform (also because we live in different countries )
Can someone tell me if we can install the heatsink the same way on the review blowing air upwards on AM4?
For the AM4 - I doubt it. I've checked the manual, and the mounting bracket (in fact the mounting "arms") and it doesn't look like it can be rotated. But pls not take it for granted.
Fair enough. They must've done something right if it manages this performance. I had 2 similar slim towers and on 200W testing they were nowhere near a D15 or Assassin III, more like 10C higher.
