Good

Did not com with AM5 mounting hardware. Through a search on the cooler master website it states this but it should really be removed from the AM5 category if they are not including the kit.

The package was obviously a return that had been opened and removed. Seal sticker was not stuck, due to dirt/handling, as did the unit inside. That is on Amazon. However, all parts were there according to parts list and video. I decided to install on new ASUS board. The base screws to not tighten to the backplate 100%. This makes the base unstable and can shift with vibration. So, I order another product. Had this come with washers I may have used it. Was this unusual circumstance here? I don't know. Many others had no issues. Also. the refund has taken a month after I dropped it off at UPS!!

Got this for a 3700x. At idle, it stays roughly 45 to 55c. Gaming, its 60 to 70c. We keep our house temp at 70f.Using this on an Asus x570i mobo. It doesnt fit straight out of the box. Coolermaster decided to use some backplate of their which is an all in one for both AMD and intel systems. The x570i mobo from Asus has a heat spreader on the back which interferes with the mounting of the cooler. Coolermastwr should use the stock backplatw that almost all other manufacturers use that comes on AM4 motherboards. Easy fix, i used a dremel and cut the mounting bracket for the cooler. Just cant use it for Intel now lol.One of the fans has reversed blades and the frame is on a different side. It makes sense for the RGB version so you dont see the frame for aesthetic purposes. But forbthe all black, rhey shpuld have just made them normal fans lol. The arrows that are on the fans that show the direction of airflow show the same direction - baseing this on how coolermastwr shipped them from the factory, i didnt remove the bracket at all. Had to look up a video to see the exhaust fan cause it is specific.Mounting the cooler kind of sucked too. The springs om the screws are super tight and hard to push down and the screws are hard to line up with the mounting bracket. Once you get the mounting portion on the motherboard *(not the cooler itself), its really loose. They just wiggle around alot. CM should include some nylon washers to take up the extra space. Or you know, make it fit properly. Motherboards are almost always the same thickness.After all the issues, i still like the cooler. It looks good and it functions fine after my modification. It has issues and doesnt have as easy an install as a Noctua cooler or even the Scythe Mugen 5 that it replace or the Noctua X53 AIO thag replaced.
