Thermalright Silver Soul 110 Review

Quick and dirty review of the Thermalright Silver Soul 110 dual-tower air cooler for AMD AM4 / AM5, Intel LGA 1200, LGA 1700, and LGA 2011 / 2066 The Silver Soul 110 uses a 92mm fan for a total cooler installed height of 110mm. Width and length are 94mm. If this sounds like the Noctua D9L to you, you&exactly right. This cooler is a clone of the D9L at about half the price. But the Noctua is known for easy installation and terrific performance. How does the budget-friendly Thermalright do? Benchmarks include CPU temperatures in Peak (orange) and Average (purple) as well as observed CPU clock speeds in Peak (orange) and Average (purple).
