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 140
8.6 / 10 Expert Rating
One of the best price-to-performance dual-tower coolers available, now with larger fans for extra headroom.
