Performance under overclocking votlages
The cooler could encounter clearence issues with Northbridge heatsink
Installation was very annoying
Mounting plate should have been pre-installed
Would have liked to have seen a clip mounting system on the fan
Should have included their own screwdriver to fit in opening
So like I mentioned in the performance section, at the end of the day there is no way to pick any one cooler as the winner here. There are just too many variables with the amount of room you have in your build being the biggest one. Obviously, if you...

The Phanteks PH-TC12LS is low-profile cooler with a big cooling attitude. The installation was hassle free and the PH-NDC thermal paste include from Phanteks is a nice bonus. If you are in the market for a cooler that takes up a minimal amout of space wh...
