Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Customers are satisfied with the quality of the electronic component fan. They mention that it is a pretty beefy cooler for a $35 price tag, and has an amazing heat sink. It offers phenomenal cooling compared to stock or cheap air coolers. The heatsink is effective and is pleasing to the eye. It does great moving heat to a larger surface area, and is impressed with how quickly temps drop back down after removing load from the cpu. The build quality of this cooler itself is top notch, and all the moving parts work well.

Overall, I'm extremely pleased I cancelled an order for another 212 when I learned of the CRYORIG H7. Temps are equal if not marginally better than the 212 and the value for money is unbeatable. Great build quality, great aesthetics, great compatability, a huge tube of thermal paste, and admirable performance for casual to mid level overclocking. What more could you want?
Edit: Have to remove a star. While using my H7, I noticed that my temperatures were creeping back up, so I pulled the cooler off the CPU to make sure the MX-4 thermal paste hadn't failed, and what I saw can only be described as the Red Sea: the center of the CPU (where the cores are) was almost bare, with the paste having collected on the sides. I cleaned and reapplied the MX-4, this time using the pea method instead of the line, and within a day had the same results: naked cores and paste halo'ed around the perimeter of the CPU. I tried again with Arctic Silver 5, which I've seen spread a little better than MX-4...same thing happened. Finally, it occurred to me that maybe I should just use the included CP7 paste, because it was designed for this thing, right?
Same problem. It halo'ed. I was stumped, and it was only after talking with a couple of Micro Center employees that the light bulb clicked on: the only thing that would cause that type of spread pattern is a warped heat spreader. I cleaned off all the paste and (don't try this at home, kids) slowly ran my bare thumb across the spreader. It's incredibly slight, but it's there--the spreader isn't perfectly smooth. It angles ever so slightly, just enough that it could theoretically cause irregular spreading of thermal paste like what I saw. I'm not going to hammer Cryorig too hard for this because I've never heard a single complaint about the H7 and some random defects are completely unpreventable, but I do have to take one star off for a QA issue that's left me with a defective, underperforming heatsink.
Original review is below:
Epic win. Cinebench stress test load temps went from 78-80C on my old 92mm cooler to 63C max on the H7. I'm running an i7-4790K, stock speed and voltage for now. RealBench stress tests never went above 66C over an eight-hour test. Furmark's CPU Burner couldn't get it over 68C, Intel XTU didn't do any better, and even Prime95 (which is a really bad thing to do to a Haswell, so I only went 15 minutes) peaked at 70C. Best of all, this thing is silent in operation. I can't hear it over my case fans, even when two of those case fans are disabled entirely.
Installation is a bit tricky, as you need access to both sides of your motherboard at once, so I don't recommend the pea method of applying thermal paste as that might result in an uneven spread. Instead, I'd do a very thin line, top to bottom, down the center of the CPU. Don't waste your time and paste on funky little X patterns or a bunch of dots, and definitely don't spread the paste with a credit card or anything silly like that.
I have a TON of headroom to overclock with this, and the thermal paste hasn't even burned in yet. Speaking of thermal paste, I didn't use the included Cryorig CP7 paste with it. I went with Arctic MX-4 instead, a paste that I know well and know works. I've never used CP7 and honestly can't say how it would have performed, but generally speaking, the difference between the top-tier thermal pastes and everything else is only 1-3 degrees Celsius. If you're one of those folks using custom water loops to get your CPU to a bazillion GHz by running a million jigawatts across the core, you need every last degree, but the CP7 should more than suffice for 90+% of PC users.
Oh, and the heatsink looks great.
To save anyone else like me some of the trouble I went through, here are some tips:
1. The current back plate in your desktop has to fully come out for the x bar plate to fit. It should fit flawlessly. I however couldn't figure out for a while why it wouldnt fit right.
2. The x bar works fine to fit whatever the screw holder pattern on your board. You just have to squeeze the x bar VERY hard to get it to bend right. Took me an hour to figure this out.
3. You can position the fan base to and adjust the fan unit itself to blow through the back or front. From what I read online, the back is usually what people suggest.
4. The back of tour actual processor unit is likely where you'll have to apply the thermal paste. Wiggle it and eventually it will come off. When you pull off your old fan to replace it with this new one, your processor might come off with it. If this happens, be VERY careful reattaching your processor to its base. Make sure all those gold little needle prongs align as well as ensuring the sides correspond right before you latch it back on. Triple check it.
I made the mistake of not doing this the first time I took my old fan unit off to clean it and then attempted to reattach the processor when it came off with it. I almost bent/broke some of the prongs and it took me forever to straighten each one back out with a small plastic card. Replacing your processor is expensive. Be careful.
5. This fan unit feels a bit heavy, but the x-bar they give you helps support it well so don't worry about unnecessary strain.
This fan cools very well. The room I have my desktop gets very hot during the summers and it's hard to keep it cool. Not only is this fan quiet, it actually cooled the case down. (Note I have a large cooler master case.)

Ripping videos cpu temps hit 70oC.
Swapped over to a masterliquid lite now maxing out at 44oC.
I have a computer case which requires a cpu cooler shorter than 150mm in height. This limits my choices to the Cryorig H7 (145mm in height) or the Noctua NH-U9S (125mm in height). I kept the Cryorig H7 as I require a cpu cooler and it keeps my system at an average operating temperature of 35 degrees Celsius during normal use, and around 66-68 degrees Celsius when rendering videos. I have a Ryzen 7 1800x cpu on an MSI x370 Gaming Pro Carbon motherboard.
I returned the Noctua NH-U9S CPU Cooler without incident and received a full refund.
For those who are not aware, the metal contact plate on a cpu cooler is a heat sink requiring full flat contact against the top of the cpu chip to transfer/dissipate heat.

Er ist super leise (abgesehen wenn Höchstleistung, aber das ist total fair)
Ersetzt hat der CRYORIG H7 meinen alten Intel Stock cooler. Die Temperaturunterschiede sind gigantisch. Maximal 70 Grad unter Volllast.
