I need help , My pre built cpu fan has been plugged into a connection in the back and I have to unplug this to fully remove the fan! It’s a Intel build
I just bought this cooler for my new rig I’m building with Ryzen 7 7800X3D and RTX 4090. It’s my lifetime dream build and I can’t wait!
crazy build bro happy 4 u
Awesome 👍 Enjoy!!
What temperature is your cpu while playing games with the assasin peerles se 120 on the ryzen 7 7800x3d?
@@tenzinwoesel1720great temps on 7800x3d pa120se im playing on everything ultra 1080p maximum temps was 82º but today I undervolted 30 gives me 76º maximum, average of 48º on hwinfo
I just got the same CPU and this cooler, setting it up when I sober up. Lol
I'd like to point out that when installing this cooler, your motherboard may have 2 ports, "CPU Fan" and "CPU Opt". CPU Opt is where you can connect the second fan to instead of daisy chaining the 2 fans into one port. This is completely optional, however, it's something worth noting depending on what you're using the computer for.
Thaks for sharing the tip!
Thank you so much! I am building my first PC and I had no idea how the fan clips were supposed to work. Great video and straight to the point
Glad it was helpful 😀👍
@@NorthernVikingEverydayDid you realize after you made the video that you clipped on the first fan somewhat incorrectly which resulted in some of the lamellae getting bent? It's clearly visible in the video and not present on the front fan.
Great tutorial. No filler. Just straight to the point. love to see tutorials like this,
Glad you enjoyed it!
Installed this earlier on my am4 mobo and it was super simple and easy to do. I’ve never dealt with those fan clips before so I came to this video and once again it was super simple and took me no time at all.
Awesome 👍 Glad you got it installed!
Is the cooler loud? Or would you say that it is very quite?
@@poxii7369 quiet
@@justsloth9765 Okay thanks!
What about the ram slots? Did it cover all 4 of the ram slots or were you able to install your rams ?
You're doing God's work here! I was too stupid to understand those clips and the manual days exactly nothing on how to install them, so thanks a million! 🤗
Glad I could help you out!
God's pretty lazy, huh.
Great guide for AM4 users! I’m using a Phantom Spirit, and it was similar enough I could follow your video. You answer so many questions the instructions didn’t address, like what direction the fans were blowing. This fan is a beast and was a needed upgrade for me after switching to a AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D. I went from 90°C in OCCT on my Cooler Master T2 to 64°C with this Phantom Spirit. Using an Asrock B450 Pro4.
Awesome! I'm glad I could help you out and that is a big difference in temperature. 😃👍
Man, also explaining the intel installation is more than my government has ever done for me
Glad it was helpful!
i was so confused about how the clips worked thank you!
Happy to help!
thanks so much for the video. I've always feared the cooler is too heavy for the moherboard, more when it's standing fastened with just two screws.
Works great for me so far.
Having the 2 screws on top and bottom is MUCH better than having them either side. The top screw prevents the heavy cooler from sagging which happens with 2 side screws all the time.
You are fantastic, your voice is nice and clear (and kind of asmr quality tbh) and you seem like a fun friendly guy. Excellent tutorial, I was worried when I read reviews of the cooler that it was a pain in the ass but you made it possible in like 5 minutes. ❤
That is very nice of you to say! Glad I could help. 😀👍
Thanks! Helping a friend build his first proper gaming PC later today and was curious about how this was installed. Never messed with a cooler this size before.
Glad I could help!
great video and easy to follow along for a beginner like me! I got a little disheartened when I noticed that the right hand fan bumped into my ram but once you had the same "issue" and said it would be fine it took a weight of my shoulder lol
Came here trying to figure out which side to mount the fans on. Looks like it's front and middle DIMM side, not middle and back. You also helped me understand how the clips work. Thank you.
You're welcome 🤗
Thann man! This was a very clear and informative video. I feel like you answered a lot questions people might have and your video helped me not have anxiety about cpu cooler installation!
Glad it was helpful! 😀👍
Watched this on my phone and installed Peerless Assassin flawlessly as my first CPU cooler change ever! Great help appreciated, especially on those confusing fan clips :((
Thank you for your wonderful tutorial video.
Glad it helped!
Is it just me or was placing the heat sink a pain, took me like 30-45 minutes to get both screws in simultaneously
@@Lmoros I screwed them almost all the way individually. Only when It feel tighter, I then screwed evenly to get them in simultaneously. Took me around 3-5 minutes
I wasnt sure what to do with direction until i noticed rubber pads and your video helped. Its possible to get those clips in without bending the heatsink fins, just slide up or down a c'hair at a time until it goes in perfect!
Glad I could help
Thank you so much. This is my very first time building a pc and thanks to you this was super easy
Glad I could help!
Hello, in some reviews of this cooler, I found that some people put a piece of iron on the motherboard directly behind the processor in order to connect with the two pieces of iron next to the processor that you installed on the plastic pieces. So my question is, do I have to put that piece of iron at the back or do I not need it? So ? By the way, my motherboard is Asrock B550M Steel Legend. I will be really happy with your answer
First time builder installing a Phantom Spirit to an MSI B 650 P Pro and let me tell you this helped immensely. Thank you!!!
Glad I was able to help 👍
Did you install the CPU cooler before mounting the motherboard or after it was already mounted in the case ?
I have its sister (Phantom Spirit SE) and I absolutely love it.
Awesome 👍
Thank you very much! The only down side I saw in all this was that you would have to pull up the 1 fan placed by the side to access the RAM but consider its only being held be brackets. It's still easy to work around.
Thanks for the video, you forgot to mention that you don't need the splitter cable, you can just connect second fan into the CPU OPT connection on the motherboard.
Good tip!
Thanks bro, i put the fans on incorrectly and had to re clip them on every 24 hours, luckily you managed to figure it out
Glad I could help
Brilliant guide! I'm a seasoned builder but I still get anxious about putting in cpu coolers for some reason. Best guide I've seen in a while.
Glad it helped!
Awesome video! Made installation super easy (even though i was worried about doing this myself originally) dropped my cpu temp 20 degrees!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the flow direction. I've watched multiple videos on this and no one explained the flow. I was afraid I was doing it incorrectly..
Glad it helped!
Is there a way I can check if there will be enough clearance between my ram and the processor? I was thinking of getting this one but I'm worried my ram (Corsair vengeance ddr4) will not allow it to fit. So I was going to go with a thermaltake assassin spirit 120 evo or gamdias boreas. My motherboard is the asrock b450m steel legend
Thank you for your excellent video, bravo. Thermalright owes you one for helping their customers so well!
Amazing video! Watched a few of these and none explained it as clearly as you. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
do you think it will hit my ram on my b550m pro vdh? I have msi 100r with hyperx 3200mhz rams.
So much better than the Thermalright video. Thanks for making this so clear
Glad it was helpful!
Simple, effective, and straightforward guide. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this! I'm doing my first PC build and was confused on the fan orientation since there is no directional logos. :) But you've cleared that out for me. Cheers!
Glad I could help!
nice, clear, short video. best of the install videos I watched.
Thanks 😊
Im so confused how did you put it in place my doesn't have anything to screw into please help (it was upside down) (edit)
yours was probably upside down like mine
@@MiirDoe yea figure that out 😕
I am doing the exact same thing but screws are not fitting the holes. I have am4 x570-plus. Could you please help me?
Ah thanks so it's the red standoffs I need! Mine didn't come with any stickers and no info in the installation guide.
Glad I could help
Great video, I just ordered mine to get ready for starfield.
Hope you enjoy it!
Now this cooler is such a unit!
I might consider getting it myself as well, thanks!
This guide helped me install my Peerless Assassin 120. Very detailed and thoughtful; Thank you very much! It was actually much easier than anticipated 😅
Glad it helped!
I'm trying to install and noticed the adaptor power line has 3 wires on one side and the other has 4. that doesn't make sense
This really helped clear things up thanks
Awesome! Glad I could help and Thank You very much for the support! It's much appreciated!! 😀👍
Paired this cooler up with a recent scrapyard find as we swing by there at work a lot.
Found a MSI x299 sli plus motherboard & an I9 7920x processor, not gonna mess about overclocking it as this will be my test rig for various parts, currently only a single 8 gb ddr4 stick too test with but I'm sure I'll find some more, or I'll just buy a kit of 32 gb & put in the current ram from my main rig into this.
Thank you. Super straight forward video and didn’t skip a thing. Thanks!
You're welcome 🤗
Wonderful video! Will be installing it to an LGA 1700 and appreciated you showing those steps as well!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the vid, I watched this after installing the color because it didn't seem right and realized I put the brackets on the wrong sides so the heatsink was hitting my ram and I/o lol. Luckily caught the mistake while everything was out of the case
Glad I could help 😀👍
I have fans in the back that pull out the hot air, and fans in the top of the case that pull out the air. Wouldn't it make more sense in that case to mount the fans so that they're both on the outside of the heat sink blowing away from the heatsink, instead of creating a hot air train?
Thanks for saying that the splitter was included in the package, solved my worries completely :)
No problem 👍
Was curious as to whether the cooler would cover up RGB ram. Now I know it does and this saved me 10$ from not buying RGB ram thanks!
No problem 👍
My brackets dont have a hole in the middle like yours. They are sealed :/
Great tutorial! I just hope for future tutorials you populated all the ram slots so you can see if it interferes with it or not
Noted!
Thank you so much you helped me a lot in building my PC!
Glad I could help!
I just order mine. Still waiting on it. Thx on this video man keep it up :)
Thanks 👍
This part stressed me out especially since I almost broke my CPU during it. Thank you so much
Glad it helped!
Was the cooler a tight fit in your PC case and did you have to worry about the cooler touching your RAM at all?
(Great Video BTW!)
I did need to slide the 1 fan up about 1/8" to get it to fit. But it seems to work great.
I had to do the same thing, move the fan up just a little bit.
Totally triggers my OCD but what are you gonna do? 😅
Simple, instructive, and to the point. Very nice, thanks much👍
Glad it was helpful!
This was very helpful. Thank you!
You're welcome 🤗
If you need the back plate to remain attached (if you're upgrading and don't want to remove the motherboard from the case), wouldn't it be better to remove/replace one bracket at a time, so one bracket is always attached and the backplate can't fall off. Just a suggestion. Thanks for the video.
Great video, was a lot of help building my first PC!
Glad I could help!
Thank you sir, cant wait to put this on top of my ryzen 7800x3d 😊
Awesome! Enjoy!!
Great video and very well explained. Many thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
ohhh.. so it's ok to move a bit up the fan near the RAM... so will it work on my setup??
CPU: AM5 Ryzen 5 7600
MOBO: MSI PRO B650M-A
RAM: Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5
RAM Dimensions: 133.35 mm x 42.23 mm x 7.11 mm
Was trying to install this on my AM5 board last night and made some big mistakes. Wish I found this sooner.
Thanks, great tutorial. Was able to get mine on and working great, first time.
Great to hear!
Id love a mention about RAM in future videos, im looking to make a similar build to this, but I have no idea what the clearances would be like for RAM.
bro tysm for this awesome tutorial!! helped me a ton ❤❤
No problem!!
This was super helpful. Thanks dude!
Glad it helped!
thank you for your help, this cooler is insane
Glad I could help!
Very helpful and easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
am back to here to say THANKS, help a lot with my first Assasin 120SE
Glad I could help 😃
I found that the splitter doesn't allow for the RPM sensor to work (showing 0 RPM in software and in BIOS).
I don't know what to think of this cooler, I bought parts for a new PC and put it together but when I tighten the two screws from the cooler to the motherboard it got so tight that the motherboard pins bent.
I think it will not fit in my mobo 💀
Does it matter in which direction you install it? 5:05
I guess you want the fans to be blowing towards the exhaust fan.
Yes you want the fans sucking in from the front and blowing towards the exhaust.
My only issue is I’m not sure whether it fits on the asus tuff b650 motherboard, could you please tell me
Thankyou so much for this video mate. First time installing a cpu cooler and I was a bit lost, so cheers again for the help 😅
This cooler barely fits in my case (lian li o11 dynamic). A singular piece of paper fits between the glass and cooler, hahha.
Thank you so much for making this video! I would have not been successful without it! 🎉
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much my friend it is running so quiet
You're welcome!
Thanks very much, I'll use a MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk motherboard which is similar, I was worrying regarding the sizes of the cooler if they were restrained by either the memory RAM sticks or the motherboard's extended heatsinks.
Glad to help!
Upgrading my prebuilt so im kinda nervous but this eases my mind a bit.
I'd like to not have to take the motherboard out completely but i guess i have to to put the bracket on the back.
Which likely means unplugging my gpu and removing it before pulling the motherboard off.
It's gonna be a little more intensive than i was hoping but hopefully it goes smoothly as i cannot afford to replace a gpu or any other parts.
Many cases have a cutout so you don't need to remove the motherboard. Hope you get it sorted. All the best!
@@NorthernVikingEveryday
Thank you! I shall check my case.
私はこれを買おうとしているので、とても参考になりました！
Glad I could help 😃👍
one problem when I installed the PA 120 SE. The RAMs are too high and I had to install the fans on the left side.
Great video! Literally Sunday building my first pc and I ordered the same cooler, only for me it’s will be with intel. Just a question.. isn’t it bad if your cooler is over the ram?
Wow! Great job. Made it so easy to understand and left out all the meaningless information
Glad it was helpful!
The cooler doesn't interfere with the RAM, does it? I'm going to buy that same motherboard and cooler, but I couldn't see clearly if the RAM fits well.
Without the fans you can access the ram, loads of clearance. About to put the fans on. I'm here to see the direction as they have no arrows.
I had to slightly raise the fan to get it to fit with two Ram sticks. It would be extra tight with four sticks of ram
Flawless. Clear. Liked.
Thank you! Cheers!
Does this work for lga 1700? I have an i5-12400F and have been told it’s different so I’m not sure if this cooler would work for me
Thank you for the video, very helpful
You are welcome!
i bought this cooler for my build motherboard is ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming 4 and for some reason i cant fit my other ram should i buy new ones cuz it turn out to be intel ram that what the fixer guy said ?
thank you so much, the fan clips are not clear at all how they work!
Glad it helped!
Very helpful, thank you!
You're welcome 🤗
what was the screwdriver type when you screwing that metal cooler block? pozidriv or philipps? 5:14 I appreciate for guide.
Thank you for creating this guide
My pleasure!
HUGE help man keep this content up you saved me a bunch of money I would’ve had to pay someone to do it for me. Again THANK YOU🙌🏼🙌🏼
No problem 👍
hi do you know if it works well with am5? heared that noctua sells/gives out special brackets that lowers heatsink so it touches more of the CCD's. is it not a problem with this cooler?
I bought this cooler and it didn't come with a mounting bracket or fan clips.. oof
Are the standoffs supposed to be loose? I’m having a real hard time screwing them in. Been at this for hours now.
Great video, helped a lot. Thank you!
Glad to hear it!
