- APNX AP1-V RGB CPU Cooler (best budget rgb cpu tower cooler) ONLY £35!!
this is the APNX AP1-V CPU tower cooler with rgb lighting.
its stunning design makes it really stand out from the crowd whilst also managing to be classy and blend in with most gaming pc builds. available in either black or white with a 120mm argb fan, this cooler looks beautiful. the full aluminium cover gives it a premium finish with matte black (or white) and a polished aluminium accent.
with clearance for even the tallest ran this makes it compatible with almost all pc builds. it can be installed on lga 1700/1200/15XX and AMD AM4/AM5, and with a TDP of 240W it is powerful enough for even the most demanding CPUs such as the 13900K, 14900K and 7950X.
this could be the best budget tower cooler for high end cpus for gamers and pc builders looking to save some money to spend elsewhere on their dream gaming rig.
in performance testing it performed well too for a relatively small cooler that doesn't break the bank.

Looks great
It is great and looks amazing.
Yay, another review for this cooler! :) Thank you for all the details, I enjoyed seeing the visuals mixed in with the data!
I have a fractal north tg charcoal and this would look stunning, but still contemplating between an air cooler or aio, whereas for the aio I'm contemplating between a 240 on top, or 280/360 in front 😅 As for cpu I wanna go for an i7 13700 non k, which should work with this cooler in terms of tdp, but alas I'm not great in picking 😂
If you've read this, thanks for your time to do so and again, for this video!
Thanks for your comment and kind words I'm glad my video was helpful, makes it worth while making videos.
I agree this cooler would lovely in that case. Hard decision. All depends what you're wanting to do I guess and what you are using it fore and how much you want to spend. I'm the same I struggle to make a decision. I'm very lucky that I have many to choose from that I've been lucky enough to receive.
Thanks again for watching I hope you will enjoy some of my other videos and future videos.
@@DiddyReviews This will be my first build, so I don't wanna regret any decisions xD
My focus will be more productivity/workload centered than gaming, mayhaps some 3D stuff in the future. As for other components, I wanna go with an msi mag z790 tomahawk, asus proart rtx 4070, 6000mhz 32gb ddr5 cl30 or 32 ram preferably g.skill trident z5 or the flare for low profile, kingston kc3000 2tb nvme ssd, an msi mpg a850g psu and depending on the cooling configuration some lian li infinity fans to top it off. Concerning cpu cooling, for 240 aio either fractal lumen or the ek nucleus, for air coolers this will be an option. As for budget I am looking at about 2,000-2,100 euros for just the case, up to 2,500 euros including the monitors and other accessories :)
Again, much rambling, cheers if you've read it all xD
Hope you have great day!
@JustCarnivorousCupcake sounds like a great build. Let me know how it goes. I will say that although this cooler is very good. The intel chips do get very warm so if your budget can stretch to an aio then that might be the best way to go. Both of those aio are very good. Unfortunately I've not had the chance to test them but I have seen videos of them. Other than that arctic have just released a new aio and it's meant to be brilliant as were its predecessors.
Thank you. Have a great day too and enjoy your new build when it's done.
@@DiddyReviews Thank you for the tip! I saw the new Arctic LF3 line and I love those! Due to the radiator being 38mm thick, it wouldn't fit properly up top sadly enough, but if I went with an aio in the front, it would certainly be the new LF3 :)
Pretty good. Not sure if it beats the Peerless Assassin SE with RGB fans though. Can be had for just under £31 in the old Rainforest.
Yes peerless assassin is a very tough one to beat for price to performance. I've reviewed many of thermalright coolers and they've all been truly impressive for their price. I've not don't the SE but I have done the standard peerless rgb.
@@DiddyReviews Not sure how they are making money on those. Granted the materials and build quality isn't the best, but for price to performance its near untouchable.. one of the better dual towers for such a low price. I have the Phantom Spirit SE and its such a good heatsink regardless of how much I paid.
We've gone a long way from the Coolermaster Hyper 212 as the budget cooler of choice lol.
What motherboard is compatible with this but also has a LGA 1700 processor specked?
I need a new cooler but I’m relatively new to this and don’t know what works with what
Any motherboard that is lga 1700 will work with this cooler.
how can you change the rgb colors? theres no setting for it in my motherboards program and dont know where to look for the setting
What motherboard is it?
@@DiddyReviews TUF gaming B550-PLUS
@@vikow download armoury crate
@@DiddyReviews yeah thats the one i have but i still couldnt find how to change the rgb lights, I also have same brand cooling fans in my pc and didnt find an rgb setting for them either :(((
@@vikow it's on the side bar there's a section called aura sync
i have one of these and it really struggles to cool my system i cant lie, its fine for idle and non cpu intensive games but as soon as its underload i can hit 100 easily. i have an i7-14700kf which i do know runs hot anyways but yeah just a thought for anyone with this cpu lol
Thanks for sharing. Yeah 14th gen run hot. I used it on 5900x and it performed well. I may try it on 7900x and see how it does
@@DiddyReviews any tips and tricks on how to cool these bad boys down? i do have a liquid cooler sitting here but its another 2-4 weeks before the lga 1700 bracket mounts arrive and i dont wanna cook my pc in the meantime. i tried an undervolt through xtu but thats not possible anymore apparently.
@@RandomKillerGaming get a contact frame they help
@@DiddyReviews thankyou so much man I really appreciate the help. I've just looked into the frames (and ordered one) and you have saved me more than you realise. The 1400 series chips are prone to bending due to the shitty design of the lga1700. So these frames not only can help reduce the CPU cooling, but they also stop bending from occuring. You sir are a legend.
i mean, at that point you should probably go with an AIO anyways
