it's crazy all 3 of you can't write down what actually happens with this cooler. They synchronised nil, the logo DOES move, and their solution is not even that nice. Intel just made it rotatable so it can always be in a topdown -readable position.
@@RandomGaminginHD Since you made an Intel video I would like to inform you that Acer is doing a major discount on their (Intel ARC) Bifrost card as some type of celebration. The A750 is £80 off atm. Alot of other things are on discount aswell like the AMD RX7600 OC is also £80 off or their Predator gaming mouse which is £50 off. Pretty much it's just any stuff that Acer quite badly wants to get rid of and that's good for us because you can find some things that are actually worth buying, you just have to wade through the bullshit.
8C isn't a lot in that range, but it's also the difference between throttling and not when you push those bigger chips like the 14700F in my work machine hard for a little while.
I shoved an i5-11400 cooler (so previous generation of the modern Intel model) as a temporary heatsink onto an i7-2600K on a friend’s machine I built. With the most basic 4.2GHz overlock, it’s adequate! Though a tiny bit noisy when gaming… Greetings from US :)
The Intel copper-core sinks are awesome. I have a few in my stash from a long time ago and one is currently sitting atop my ITX 4770 build. Thanks as always for the great content!
Ayyyyy!! I remember leaving a comment about this, thanks for making a video about it! Me and my coworker were doubling over laughing at the fact this existed. For a tenner though? Heck, I’d pick one up to cool a XX100F/XX400F
Yep! It was on your i9 video 3 weeks ago. My coworker handed it to me as he didn’t need this to cool his 13900F for obvious reasons. It’s in a 12100F/1080Ti build for a friend now 😁
I have a 10600KF and the Thermalright AX120 SE. On sale it was less than a tenner and I like how it reminds me of the Hyper 212 series. The Intel CPU cooler remains at a positions where we'd use it if it was free, but probably won't go out of our way to buy one

So weird seeing you upload this.. Just a couple of days ago I was wondering if you had uploaded a video on the relatively new Intel stock coolers. And all of a sudden here the video is! What a coincidence.
Arctic MX-4 I literally swear by this stuff. Every build/refurb/re-paste I do includes it. CPUs, GPUs, If I've had it apart, I've splatted it with this gunk.
He's right, those Thermalright coolers he mentioned are really good. It may just be anecdotal on my part, but I have used both the single stack Assassin and the double stack Peerless Assassin and they are both cheap and effective coolers.
On a system that is being stressed in hotter temperatures, even a couple of degrees improvement can mean the difference between full and stable clock boosting or thermal throttling. I am a big fan of putting a higher end processor's stock cooler on a lower end processor. Eleven years ago, a friend of mine and I built a brand new computer for his parents and brothers. It was an AMD Athlon II X4 which came with its own little stock cooler. I had helped my friend build his own personal AMD Phenom II X6 machine and he went with an upgraded aftermarket cooler for it. We put his Phenom II x6 cooler on his parent's machine and that Athlon II stayed 15*C cooler under load than with its own cooler. 8 or so may not seem like much but, it really is.
I've got an Arc Challenger a750 just sitting around, this would be great for a little Intel theme build. Already have ideas going off left and right in my head.
It's nice that Intel has finally updated their box coolers to where they are actually pretty good because I remember them not being very good for years.
Now take the Laminar RH1 and put a piece of 1000 grit sandpaper on a piece of glass and smooth the copper core out I imagine you might get another degree or 3 in coolness levels...:) As always the vids are welcome because the videography is excellent as is the scripting. Good on you to build a channel like this sir.
I assume the button on the ARGB cable is there in case your mobo doesn't have an ARGB header, so you can manually cycle through a couple of RGB presets
That thing looks amazing. Noctus needs to make one like that, tall with a 120mm fan i bet temps would drop like crazy. And hey 8°C is a damn decent drop.
When i got my hands on a 12400f i used the stock cooler, temps werent amazing, but what really got the temps down for me was a cheap chinese socket bracket. The cooler was so firm to the processor it became a real pain just to get it off. At one point i thought that i would just crack the cpu, but 65 C max on load really speaks for itself when using it. Just goes to show how much proper mounting matters
it is heat-pipe free and takes airflow to the VRM heatsink, so it is actually a good CPU cooler, you don't need worried about the chassis is horizontal or vertical.
my oldest intel stock cooler is a now 14 years old intel lga 11xx pattern cooler by Delta (yes, the same Delta as the once celebrated PSU-maker) and the thing is built like a tank. it has a copper core, those push pins, a .6 amper dc motor and has survived countless refits (but i'd say at least 30) just during the time it was with me. it still is mine, but sits on a shelf nowadays.....
I honestly think that stock coolers are the best route to go with for budget systems. They are designed to keep CPUs cool enough under realistic loads rather than stress tests so you can have a guarantee that your CPU will not overheat. It is best to not overclock while using a stock cooler, as it has led to some Ryzen 5 3600s to fail over time, but if you're rocking an Intel CPU, that's not a problem anyway because all non-overclockable CPUs are the only ones to get a stock cooler.
The RH1 being sale for £9.99 and is actually excellent for the money and looks good with its illuminated core and fins. I did look for it a while ago but it was originally only supplied on i9 CPUs and not sold individually so I understand. The recent sales may be to remove stock because intel is going to no longer supply cooling fans with all its processor lines very shortly.
Hi Steve! Another temperature test I would like to see. This is with the use of those RGB lights. Two options I am looking for. Red and Blue! Same configurations, same tests, but only one of these colors to shine inside the case. In my opinion with blue light it should be cooler in average. But let's see, if the idea is right. Thanks for all the wacky tests you've done.
I never understood the whole cooling bit. I just lay my cases in a rack horizontally, put on the largest air cooler I can find and fit and leave off the side panel. Even under full load my 5950X never gets above 55 degrees C for weeks on end. And it is almost completely silent 🤷♂️
I’ve wanted a video about this since it got released with the 12900 some years ago. I haven’t seen it stand alone in my country but I’d probably buy it for 10 pounds. The standard fan is good enough for the 12400F though.
Just for referance, I'm running an Intel i7 12700 with a Thermalright Assassin 120 single tower cooler for about a year now and consistantly get about the same results as the RH1
I would like to see a build that uses as little power as possible without compromising on performance. Undervolting everything, turning of lights, reducing fan speed and whatever else comes to mind.
Not bad, you could maybe try to compare them to the Arctic Alpine 17, it's a very low cost upgrade from the stock cooler, it would be interesting to see how it compares to the RH1
I'd like to see a comparison to the Hyper 212, since that's the gold standard of cheap CPU coolers. It's 20 USD on amazon right now, and (at least in the US) the Intel RH-1 is also 20 dollars.
I know it's a test system, and it does look fantastic with that motherboard, but it's really funny looking at a motherboard like that paired with a stock cooler lmao.
I recently picked up Arctic's Freezer 36 air cooler and it's really good for the price. I went for the ARGB version which was £22. Comes with MX-6 paste though I'm not sure if it's that much different to the MX-4. It certainly keeps my 5700X nice and cool. I've seen it reach as low as 28C at idle.
I actually got two of these for someone’s system since they were selling someone on eBay was selling them for $10 each. Threw one on an i3 12100f because I couldn’t find the original cpu cooler and was hoping the rgb would work without a header, it in fact doesn’t. Still need to find something to put under the other one.
Well that sucks lol. Every RGB CPU cooler I've owned has worked without connecting to an RGB header, It just works to a default pattern and is powered by the CPU header as the fan.
I have one of the stock coolers for LGA1700 since it was free. I didn't use it but it's probably enough for a 1700 i3 or i5, 12th gens. I like the less noise that slapping on a TR budget cooler gives for under 20 USD.
Nice looking cooler for around $13 U.S. It's kind of pricey here in the U.S. I got my daughter an i5-12400 for her build and the stock cooler it does a decent job of cooling. Would love to get her one of these, but I don't want to pay $30 for it.
I feel like our high end CPUs should come with appropriate coolers in the box. I am not a water cooler or intel fan but do feel at the cost a 240 liquid cooler would be in order. With that said, this cooler looks awesome. AMD could also do with another option. Nothing against the wraith, it is an effective cooler stock but not above a Ryzen 5 5600/x. I have a dozen wraiths laying about and was excited to find out AMD did not waste the materials by putting one with my 5800x3d. Everyone knows race strips gives a Corsa 5 bhp and RGB gives a PC at least 4 more fps
I bought an artic 36, for only 32 pounds. honestly the best air cooler ive ever used. i have a new i5 14400 and it was hitting 85 on 100% load on the stock cooler, i doubt these are enough for anything above a i5 13400
i got mine for a 12100F , works so well it even stops the fan running at times . freacked me out the first time i saw it do it , one thing is one you connect the rgb and change it you cant seem to get the original blue again i got a spare as well that i am keeping for a later build ,
Not bad, I'd certainly use this cooler on a mid range 1700 CPU to get a better temperature than the stock i5 cooler (the smaller cooler may be OK for a Celeron or Pentium though). I certainly wouldn't be using a stock cooler with an i9, however - especially the 14900. I can see why Intel does not provide stock coolers for the 14900K and other K-series CPUs.
Why don’t you buy the 20g tube of MX-4? I‘m for sure doing far less part swapping than you and for me it’s worth it much more. And also, I would love to see comparisons to thermalright products, bought a couple of their coolers in the past years an I have nothing to complain about.

Nice
As well as idle temps I see
A specific channel would like that as well.
Idle temps need to be 42.0 degrees Celsius too

Still need to find something to put under the other one.
Well that sucks lol. Every RGB CPU cooler I've owned has worked without connecting to an RGB header, It just works to a default pattern and is powered by the CPU header as the fan.
The Wraith Prism cooler is going to be enough for me, when I upgrade to AM5.
I have one of the stock coolers for LGA1700 since it was free. I didn't use it but it's probably enough for a 1700 i3 or i5, 12th gens. I like the less noise that slapping on a TR budget cooler gives for under 20 USD.
So the little cooler is a little cooler (than the larger one).
Can you cool a Ryzen with it somehow?
What is the CPU fan & heatsink that comes with the i5 12400F by default? Is it the lighter duty one in this video?
Great way yo make your build look like a hotwheels car

Love the look of those coolers, sat here with a 3700X, might need an intel just for one
Haha get one just in case 😁
Wait why is green the color for the coolest temperature? Wouldn’t blue be the obvious choice? That seems bizarre. Is it a UK thing?
I'm not an Intel fanboy, but that heatsink is actually quite... Ugh, I'm going to say it... sexy.

With that said, this cooler looks awesome. AMD could also do with another option. Nothing against the wraith, it is an effective cooler stock but not above a Ryzen 5 5600/x. I have a dozen wraiths laying about and was excited to find out AMD did not waste the materials by putting one with my 5800x3d.
Everyone knows race strips gives a Corsa 5 bhp and RGB gives a PC at least 4 more fps
solid stock cooling, it can handle 13500 undervolted well
I wonder if this comes in white color
I bought an artic 36, for only 32 pounds. honestly the best air cooler ive ever used. i have a new i5 14400 and it was hitting 85 on 100% load on the stock cooler, i doubt these are enough for anything above a i5 13400
i got mine for a 12100F , works so well it even stops the fan running at times . freacked me out the first time i saw it do it , one thing is one you connect the rgb and change it you cant seem to get the original blue again i got a spare as well that i am keeping for a later build ,
Sorry bud, but that bad boy is $69.59 on Amazon US. Too spendy for me. Maybe someday they will be cheaper. Great review as always. Take care. Cheers
Not bad, I'd certainly use this cooler on a mid range 1700 CPU to get a better temperature than the stock i5 cooler (the smaller cooler may be OK for a Celeron or Pentium though). I certainly wouldn't be using a stock cooler with an i9, however - especially the 14900. I can see why Intel does not provide stock coolers for the 14900K and other K-series CPUs.
The RH1 has a fair bit of wobble to it vs your RM1
I'll be sticking to my existing water cooler AIO with 360mm radiator. Even with that the CPU hits up to 80C, so any less cooling would be bad
Actuslly is a nice design
Finally Intel is improving
Why don’t you buy the 20g tube of MX-4? I‘m for sure doing far less part swapping than you and for me it’s worth it much more. And also, I would love to see comparisons to thermalright products, bought a couple of their coolers in the past years an I have nothing to complain about.
