Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Black CPU Cooler

The Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Black is a high-performance dual-tower CPU cooler designed to provide exceptional cooling for a wide range of desktop processors. Its dual heatsink design significantly increases the surface area for heat dissipation, and it features six 6mm heat pipes utilizing Thermalright's AGHP (Anti-Gravity Heat Pipe) technology. This technology ensures efficient heat transfer regardless of the cooler's orientation, making it a reliable choice for various system builds.

This cooler comes equipped with two 120mm PWM fans (model TL-C12B) that deliver a strong balance of airflow and static pressure to effectively cool the dual fin stacks. The PWM control allows for automatic fan speed adjustments based on the CPU temperature, providing powerful cooling under heavy loads and quieter operation during less demanding tasks. The fans utilize S-FDB (Sealed Fluid Dynamic Bearing), which contributes to quieter operation and a longer lifespan compared to traditional sleeve bearing fans.

The Peerless Assassin 120 Black offers broad compatibility with both Intel and AMD CPU sockets, making it a versatile cooling solution. Thermalright claims a Thermal Design Power (TDP) support of up to 265W, indicating its capability to handle high-performance and even some overclocked processors. The cooler has compact dimensions (L125 mm x W135 mm x H157 mm) for a dual-tower design, offering good compatibility with many PC cases. The package also includes thermal paste to ensure optimal heat transfer between the CPU and the cooler base, simplifying the installation process. For users seeking top-tier air cooling performance with excellent value and quiet operation, the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Black is an outstanding choice.
