*Thermalright release an insanely budget friendly cooler*

I took delivery of the ARGB version of this today. I have to say that I am disappointed that the backplate is just flimsy plastic and not steel like I expected it to be. Aside from that it seems pretty solidly built and looks great. It won't be installed for a week or two but I will update my verdict when it is.
 
Need to return mine and get the non argb version. I didn't realise there were so many wires involved.
Getting rid of all the argb fans in my case too.
 
Got mine fitted over the weekend and yesterday. It's a very good looking cooler but like Noxia says, the damn wires for the ARGB version are a mess. I am sticking with it though and will probably cut a new cable management hole in the motherboard tray to hide them easier.

@pastymuncher looks good. Did you connect it by using the y splitter into the CPU header.
Then did you plug one of the ARGB fans into the other and then with the remaining cable with the three holes that goes into an ARGB header on the motherboard?
 
Yes to all. Some of the ARGB cables have been tucked under the motherboard but I am not happy with them. I am going to cut another cable management hole next to the cooler to stuff the cables down. I did some gaming last night and with a ambient temp of 21 degrees C the cpu maxxed out at 61 degrees which I thought was pretty impressive seeing as the fan's remained quiet. So far I am pretty pleased with my switch from highish end custom water to air cooling.
