Epilogue
The Enermax ETS-TD60D ARGB comes at a good price, offers high-enough performance, and, besides the highly desirable RGB lighting, which is desirable for many users, it also features a top display, which can be particularly useful for some. I noticed several user reviews on Amazon stating that the fans on their coolers broke after a while. I didn’t notice anything unusual in my sample, but I only tested it for a short period. Therefore, since I didn’t perform long-term testing, I cannot know if its fans are reliable or have issues. The fact is that this cooler claims to have FDB fans, which, under normal operating conditions, have a long lifetime.
At a 25 dBA normalized noise output, a level that won’t bother most users while still allowing for good performance, the Enermax cooler offers high-enough performance. That said, it loses to the Cooler Master Hyper 612 APEX, which features a single-tower design and costs only $10 more, offering significantly better RAM compatibility (thanks to its more compact footprint). If you have RAM modules with tall heatspreaders, you may encounter issues with the Enermax ETS-TD60, so it’s best to check this before purchasing one.

You help me a lot by using my affiliate links, which don’t increase the price of the product. I receive a commission from Amazon every time you do it, which can make a significant difference for me, especially now that I am working independently, exclusively for my media, rather than for someone else.
