Verdict
Cryorig H7
7.3 / 10 Expert Rating
A competent budget single-tower cooler whose real selling point is RAM clearance, not outright thermal performance.
Scythe Ninja 5
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A quietly capable dual-tower cooler that continues Scythe's long tradition of acoustics-first value engineering.
