Performance wise yes, build quality no, I used two PA120's prior to moving to a D15, which I've since returned, the fin stacks were so easy to bend or scratch compared to the PA120, also the D15 will scratch the top of cards with thicker back plates, as its has with my 7900xtx, something they've apparently fixed with the new update, however if I had a choice again I'd go with PA120 or Ak620, is a shame really as i love the quality of noctua fans which I currently use.

I could check in your results that the Peerless assassin still is the best bang for your buck... But there is a new revision that has not been reviewed and is under the radar, the thermalright phantom spirit se... Either the rgb or black versions, it's less taller, has two more heat pipes, arguably more fins stacked and the fans are a revised version of the ones in the PA 120 se... Really looking forward to put this phantom spirit against the big names on the top!

The buzzing is because they're slapping the fans butt up against the fins while running them in pull. There's a reason why Noctua provides THICKER rubber pads for the pull side of the heatsink.

It might seem that the performance is a little bit disappointing, but there is one big thing to consider. RAM clearance. With the total height of 164mm it allows to install ANY RAM on the market regardless of its height and with perfect visibility for RGB lighting. For example, Noctua NH-D15 has only 32mm for RAM sticks without raising the fan and the height of the entire cooler. I think that many people will be interested in Assassin IV because of this (and its aesthetics).

Thanks for the in-depth reviews. I am undervolting and overclocking my 12700K, but running into problems with my old cooler. (It's hitting 80C, and crashing Cinebench if I don't cap at 80C. Otherwise stable.) I'm imagining how much further I can go with a proper cooler for the 12700K. These things (CPU tuning) are a bit finnicky, so having such fine detailed data (such as across dB ranges and workload wattages, and the special gaming scenario test, showing frequency/FPS response) are very very informative for what I'm trying to do with my CPU. Thank you for that! Most outlets only show one bar graph, your line plots across dB ranges are very *chef's kiss* perfect. (I know that takes time, but it is much appreciated!) I'm as surprised as you that this thing doesn't beat the Assassin III for raw performance, but in hindsight, it's been really hard to believe anyone would get much better than the current gen, whether it be the Assassin III, the NH-D-15 or the Thermalright Peerless Assassin / Frost Spirit. I guess it was too good a notion to be true. For now. (I believe Noctua when they say their new D-15 will be 1or more degrees cooler. Lots of hard work for modest gains is believable, and Noctua's word is usually pretty good, in terms of avoiding making false claims to begin with.) I would second what I saw someone else say, I'm curious how the *Assassin Spirit* stacks up. Some are saying it's 2-4C cooler all while being quieter. Maybe they slightly optimized the contact plate or the heatpipe placement, IDK. One guy didn't test it properly (used only a Ryzen 3600) but found basically no difference (makes sense, that CPU can be cooled by practically anything...) Basically everyone else has said it's a few degrees cooler while quieter. No big name reviewers yet, though! Which seems like a shame. They also revived the actual Assassin Spirit single tower 120 that Gamers Nexus tested, but as a V2 model, and a bunch of 120 single-tower models, but I would assume those are pretty much the same performance as the Assassin X 120 family??? I never know until someone reviews one, Thermalright have too many models!!!!

Nice review!, and yes I can heard the buzzing on the second unit too. The AK620 and Assasin III are still, for me, the best coolers performance/money. Far as I know you can also setup the AK620 as a pull-pull configuration (I didn't test it yet) so RAM issues shouldn't be a problem. You are not going to get the same performance, but still cheaper and a well built cooler. Cheers!

@ydin9

Few questions come to mind: Does it run better with the additional fan if you take the 14 mm out of there? Is there space in that slot for a bigger fan? Does it actually run better if you take the side crating panel out? This whole design, while it looks neat and all, seems like it's a victim of style over substance. Judging from afar with a amateurs eye, it's like it is creating inefficient turbulence that hotboxes the airflow and temperature in the square vents where the Assassin 3 type design has more room to dump excess heat to the case and it's front fan doesn't eat air as a backdraft that has gone through it already. Would be really fun to see with a fine smoke test where it actually flows.

It's "worse" for performance, but it looks more refined and it's something a little unique. And it's not "bad", just "measurably worse than the best". It has a spot. I'm not buying it, but it has a spot in the market. Naming it the Assassin IV feels wrong, I will admit, since it's worse than the III, but that's marketing, not the actual physical product. If you see a review and still want it, that's your choice to make... Meanwhile the Assassin III is very hard to find for under $100, so yeah it's not worse in *every* way... At least this costs under $100.

The assassin 3 and DH-15 can radiate any heat that wasn't taken by the air flow into the case. With all the shrouding on the assassin 4, it can't do that. But what it does show is that the more air you push through it, the better it improves to make up for that loss of heat dissipation. It's basically operating off ramjet concepts, which are very loud, and need lots of air pumprd in to perform.

The idea of fans in pull configuration tends to be louder seems to be true at least partially. I tried having CPU & GPU fans in pull configuration(that's right you heard it. GPU fans in pull config. I use 90mm case fans on my gpu using zip ties to mount.), both of them results in louder operation. Noctua's cooler's have a thick silicone vibration damper on the pull fan I think for this reason. Having some distance between the pull fan and the heat sink itself seems to alleviate the problem.

For the most value for money choices, you can't go wrong with any Thermalright's product.

Now I'm adamantly promoting Thermalright's product to my friends and colleagues ever since as a cheaper and better quality alternative compared to more expensive AIO water cooling. Because air cooling don't dissipate or having pump issues and need to be replace.

I actually dig it. It was meant for aesthetics with performance. And not everyone will have a 13900K cpu. This would be a good choice for a stealth build

Did DeepCOOOL prioritize design over functionality? I have reservations about whether this cooler is suitable for the Assassin series.

It need to be paint for the white builds, and an infinit mirror or LCD screen is a good complement. The blacks are strong in white builds

Will there ever be a review where you test the heatsinks themselves? That's what I'm always wondering, what the best cooler would be if you'd just strap on whatever Noctua fan comes closest to the stock fan in terms of size and shape. Or are the heatsinks tuned to always work best with the respective stock fan? Who knows maybe the Assassin III is the best cooler of all time with that testing methodology lol

@HardwareCanucks 11 месяцев назад
Heatsinks are typically tuned for fans. Or at least all the good ones. Noctua stated this in our interview.

It doesn't really sound quiet though. Sounds rather like you could make music from the tonality of the fan noise. Holding my breath for the NH-D15 V2.

Great review as usual, and the wait for the proper sample shows the commitment, Kudos. It's always nice to see Mike reviewing air coolers, cause they are my favorite and you can see how Mike appreciates them too. I don't miss a single of these reviews, always awesome. I Honestly didn't expect the assassin III or other top end coolers to be dethroned, Noctua themselves are 10+ years without being able to do that. But the product looks solid, great option for aesthetics + performance. Thanks again Mike for the great video!

I wish I have seen this before... I just bought the Assasin IV yesterday and now I wish I could refound it and buy the Assasin 3 or the Frost Spirit 140 which is a way cheaper than this and better performing 😮‍💨 None of the reviews of Assasin 4 I saw before told me this, new suscriber just because I don't wanna make these errors again

I have the AK620 from DeepCool I head the buzzing issue on one fan so hard I head to reach out to the support. After all I got some FK120 fans as a replacement but the buzzing is just silent. I needed to ajust my fancurve because over 1500rpm the buzzing (vibrations) continues. I still love my DeepCool AK620 but it needed some ajustment i dont recommend the casual user.

So the first "faulty" one had 2 db higher sound per 100 rpm over 1000 rpm, that seems quite within reasonable error for electronic devices? 1-2 db difference must be expected, no?

@HardwareCanucks 11 месяцев назад
Not really. Decibels use a logarithmic scale which means 2 decibels is SIGNIFICANTLY higher in the auditory spectrum.

Why do you need to breath the hot GPU air??? do a reverse setup that draws clean air from the rear exhaust (now intake). Can you test in such configurations? Either with a rear fan, a duct that bridges the gap, or, nothing at all.

So Deepcool Assassin III is the top dog in this test and also most performance/price ratio. Most for the buck. Costs about 110-120 euro here Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE is a contender too. Costs only about 60 euro here. Im in the time for heatsink upgrade. I also like the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 AIO but it comes with some maintenance and such. Noctua NH-D15 is really great too costs about the same as Deepcool Assassin III here. Im on a old CPU but i thought that the heatsink/cooler could be used in the future system/platform upgrade.
