About this deal

Line the screws on the cooler up with the threads on the mounting bracket and alternate between the two to secure it. The DeepCool AK400 is a highly compatible CPU cooler featuring a classic four heat pipe tower layout with a unique matrix fin design and a high-performance FDB fan that delivers excellent heat dissipation and extremely low noise levels.

Its innovative design incorporates a myriad of features, ensuring not just cooling but an enhanced overall performance. Gunning for a no-nonsense design that focuses primarily on performance and cost, DeepCool uses a reasonably good-looking all-black fan but opts not to run any form of RGB lighting. But that seems to be the case for most 120mm-class air coolers as they simply do not performance particularly strongly for directing incidental airflow to the VRM on our motherboard. This is important for getting an indication of where our performance expectations should lie based on noise output. Aluminum does have its trade-offs with thermal conductivity of 237 W/mK, which is significantly less than copper.And that’s particularly true when factoring in the Arctic cooler's warranty which is vastly superior to the coverage offered by DeepCool. Meanwhile, the heatsink fins and the rest of the base utilizes aluminum for their build, which is lighter than copper. While this is a small – almost immaterial – drop in cooling performance, it does have to be viewed through the lens of the competition. quick five-step processThe improved installation method is made easy with a sturdy all-metal mounting bracket and a quick five-step process to safely fasten your cooler on multiple platforms supporting the latest from Intel and AMD.

There is, however, provision for noise reduction, as the fan is mounted to the heatsink with rubber contact dampers. For testing, we use a 30-minute looped run of Cinebench R23 and record the steady-state CPU temperature at the end of the test.Nevertheless, this is a strong thermal result for DeepCool when its new AK400 is running at perfectly tolerable noise levels.
