PCCooler RZ820 Display CPU Cooler Review

The PCCooler RZ820 is a massive air cooler, offering top performance but you should first check if you will have compatibility issues with the mainboard, RAM, GPU and the chassis. Dual-tower air coolers provide the best possible performance while keeping noise output low, but their footprint sets the limitations on when/where you can use them. 

The PCCooler RZ820 is a large dual-tower air cooler designed to dissipate heat from energy-hungry processors. Its advertised TDP of 290W is among the highest! It uses two sets of stacked aluminum fins and multiple heat pipes to transfer heat away from the processor to the surrounding airflow generated by its fans.

This video shows the cooler’s impressive display and the software you can use to control it and adjust what is shown. You can download the compatible software from the product’s official page.

Major specs:

• Design: Dual-tower heatsink with eight heat pipes (a mix of larger and smaller diameters) running through the fin stacks.
• Dimensions: Roughly 169 mm tall with a footprint that can challenge smaller chassis.
• Weight: it is significantly heavier than many competitors (close to ~1.93 kg), so the mainboard will get a beating, too.
• Fans: Two DBB fans (typically a 120 mm and a 140 mm) attached to pull air through the fins.
• Compatibility: Supports a wide range of contemporary CPU sockets from both AMD and Intel, including AM4/AM5 and LGA115x/1200/1700/1851 platforms.
• 5-inch IPS LCD screen with 1280×720 resolution, 24-bit color, and 60 Hz refresh rate. Also scratch-resistant and anti-fingerprint (according to PCCooler)
