Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE CPU Air Cooler, 6 Heat Pipes Cpu cooler, Dual 120mm TL-C12C PWM Fan, Aluminium Heatsink Cover, AGHP Technology, for AMD AM4 AM5/Intel 1150/1151/1200/1700

Product Information

relative performance and sound output when under different heat loads. The comparison is conducted under the following conditions: You can reduce some of the noise by having the pull fan on different fan header with 5-10% less PWM vs the push fan.

Difficult to increase sample size with multiple TH reviewers. Leaves me wondering about comparison to the Deepcool AS500 (or similar single-tower 140mm coolers, Scythe Fuma 2, etc.) Would be nice if testing can be normalized in a way that allows results to be transferred/combined for larger lists.

I say go for it, you may lose 1-3c but its not that big of a deal. I was running 1 fan on my cooler for a month or so, just to see how it dealt with summer. I have the front fan on right now, but I might take it off since I cant see my ram anymore The case was closed, also at the top (The Define C has an option to open the top plate but it was closed) I don't have any results from the Freezer 34 DUO, But with the PA120, I'm in the top 3-7 for the 5600x To test the limits of a cooler's thermal dissipation capabilities, I run two primary stress tests: Cinebench and OCCT, each for 10 minutes. While this may be a short amount of time, it is sufficient to push most coolers–air and liquid–to their limits.

I then extracted out some key metrics and graphed them for easy review. My goal for the test was to generate heat in a straightforward, repeatable and controlled a manner with various CPU configurations. i never jump head first into a new platform anyway. there is ALWAYS bugs to work out no matter who is making it. let the first couple months go by for BIOS updates, new featurs, fixes and so on rather than being the one who has to suffer all the issuesI bought the 3900x on day one and had some "interesting" BIOS related issues for about 6 weeks and apparently the 3000 series had a much better launch than the 2000 and 1000 series Ryzen chips. I would not say buying day one new platform CPUs is a bad idea but new adopters should be ready for some "interesting" BIOS, performance, or other unforeseen compatibility issues. While stress testing in Cinebench, I run both with power limits removed and with an enforced 200W CPU power limit, using MSI’s Z690 A Pro DDR4 Motherboard and Be Quiet’s Silent Base 802 Computer Case. Only the most capable coolers are able to pass Cinebench testing when power limits are removed. When testing a more reasonable 200W CPU power limit, Thermalright’s Peerless Assassin 120 SE performed exceptionally well. In this workload, the CPU temperature averaged 61 degrees Celcius over ambient – the best resultI’ve seen from any air cooler I’ve tested, beating DeepCool’s AK500 by seven degrees C!

Does anyone know what the exact difference is between the SE and the regular? To me it looks like the SE has fewer optical improvements and is a bit smaller. Is there a thermal or noise difference?

Intel ® Core™ i7-1265U | Kioxia KBG50ZNV512G | 16GB DDR4| Windows 11 Enterprise | HP EliteBook 650 G9 Due to requests from our readers, I’ve begun to include 95W results, which should be broadly applicable to CPUs like AMD’s Ryzen 5 5600V or Intel’s Core i5-12400. In these lower wattage tests, the Peerless Assassin once again lives up to its name, outperforming it’s nearest rival by six degrees C when fans ran at the default fan curve, and a whopping 12 degrees C when set to 50% fan speeds. i don't want to be the beta tester so i wait. but if you can handle working with any potential bugs and don't mind doing it, then early adoption is not the worst thing ever :) TF7 is pretty good.. but if you guys like that you should try some TFX.. awesome sauce right there. I am using SYY-157, great stuff cheap as borscht too. I have like 20 grams of it lol..
