AMD Wraith Prism
6.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely decent bundled cooler for its era, worth keeping for a budget build but not worth buying separately once you compare it to current low-cost aftermarket coolers.
Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
9 / 10 Expert Rating
One of the best value dual-tower air coolers on the market, delivering thermals that rival much pricier coolers with no frills attached.
