I like Deepcool. I recently bought an AIO from them and though its only been in use for a week now I have liked it. If I were going back to air for a build Just based on how the company was when we bought from them I would gladly choose them again.
thanks bro you are a lifesaver i was planing to buy ak300 but saw this video and saw that ak400 and ag400 have similar performance since ak300 is worse than ak400 and ag400 is on par with ak400 can buy the ag400 in peace deserves a sub
Deepcool is a Good Company they in the Market wayback 2000's and ive been a consumer of their products since 2010 and all i can say they good, quality is superb and has a cheaper product pricing also using AS500 plus cooler for almost 2yrs now no issue at all
I was concerned with the weight of the AK620, as it's actually more than the popular NH-D15. Now that I see the AG and AK have nearly identical performance, I'm gonna have to go for the AG620 because it's almost a half pound lighter.
You need to practice and read the installation manual when installing these coolers. You have an open bench rig but you actually pointed the fans to intake air from the motherboard IO. Imagine building this in a PC case. Standard direction of the CPU fans is to intake from the front of the case or from the RAM modules. I believe you also forgot to mention the ambient temp in your room before you posted the results of your CPU temps which are so tiny to read. Bigger text size would help alot. The video quality is good but the audio does not appear normalized. The reviewer became soft spoken throughout the review as opposed to the intro. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the feedback! I believe I mentioned ambient temp, but I will ensure to include that in the graphs as well. By the way, did you watch this on your PC or mobile device? I am trying to understand how best to balance sizing for the graphs to suit both
Temps and bottom section. It would be nice if it were the same sized text as the name of the coolers on the left. Thanks for the response. I hope this would deliver your information gathered to your audience better.
The fan on the ak620 is their premium fk120 which you can buy separately while the fan on the ag620 is a cheaper fan you can't buy with only a long serial number
good vid! I was just considering buying this cooler. I am curious and a bit skeptical about install the fans reversed. I would love to see a comparison reverse install #s vs normal install (even if the fans have to be raised a bit)
I have noticed something in this video and another one (I believe it was the fractal meshing 2 nano video) of yours I watched and I don’t really get it. Why put the fans on the side of the cooler where the outtake fan would be on most cases?? Usually the best position is the first fan on the right side of the cooler, right next to the ram and the other one in the middle, all pulling air from the front of the case and exhausting towards the back where the exhaust case fan is. Doing it the way in your videos just places the 2 fans (exhaust case fan and second fan on air cooler) right next to each other and has little affect, sometimes it can even be worse. Just curious as to why you place them like this??
on the open bench like this, there is little to no difference in performance - but you are right, in smaller case there may be unwanted turbulence. Ultimately in this example we are comparing performance with exactly the same set-up so you need to be looking at the performance delta.
thanks! I am not sure what performance freezer 34 has, I recommend checking video from gamers nexus and then check his performance delta against mine here.
@@c.thanga2k It looks cool. My AG400 is doing well also, if I upgrade it, it will be with some Liquid cooling system. That one that you have looks great, thanks for the feedback.
I want to replace the stock cooler on my i5-12400 with Gigabyte B660m ds3h ax ddr4, corsair vengeance lpx 3200mhz sticks in a case with about 161mm cooler height limit before summertime. It can get very hot here like around 40C and above at the peak heatwave. I do not know which one to get. Will the plus versions of the AG400 and AK400 with two fans make any difference from their standard counterparts? Do I need a AK620 for my 12400? Or maybe meet in the middle and get the AG620 ARGB? Anybody have any suggestions?
I have 12400f with Deepcool Gammax 400 V2 Blue and this cooler is all you need for 12400. Runs quiet and very cool. Idle Temp around 27-28 C and at load, around 60 C
Jesus Christ the focus makes me so dizzy on the colose-ups, I'm gonna throw up After all the meandering before showing the tests, it'd have been nice to see the coolers' performance at stock 105W, which coincides with one of the most popular CPUs over the last year - the 5800X3D. Considering how close the AG620 is to the smaller 400, it'd have been quite useful to know if one would be able to get away with the smaller one, since size dimensions are also very important for air coolers.
Sorry for not matching the expectations. For your example I would probably say 620 would be a better choice to be safe and keep that cpu nice and cool for max boost. But if budget is really tight the smaller 400 would do well, just expect situations when cpu will be maxed out. If you are gaming in 1440p and above, then this would probably not happen
@@A2KMedia thanks for the reply, at least the data should be accurate for the new 120W 7800X3D, huehue I think I'll wait and try to snipe the AK620 when it gets back in stock, because they sell out all across my small country in just a few days
@@George_K. i'm a big fan of amd and even use their gpus but they are really riding the MASSIVEoverhype of the 5800x3d to price gouge these new 3d systems, yuck. also an ag620 is smaller and cheaper and less likely to sell out and performs within 1% of the ak620
@@coomsicle I sniped the AK620 about a month ago for a fair price, but it's still sitting unboxed. I'm waiting for the 5800X3D to drop a bit in my area, because it's 25% over what it should be as it's still the #1 best-selling CPU in my country.

As if using nvidia was ever a good option!
@@George_K. well nvidia gpus are better if we aren't counting performance per dollar. they have better ray tracing, dlss, etc. these things i do not care about and i stream using software encoding anyway (intel cpus from this gen are INSANE, 1080 60fps on twitch streaming from a cpu and i get no fps loss. none at all. on an i5). AMD is rapidly catching up though. if we ARE including money, then AMD is absolutely the best performance per dollar. or at least they were. this newestt gen of cards are way more expensive than they should be, and ironically the RTX 4070 TI is the best value.. but still overpriced. the days of fairly priced gpus are long gone. but CPU compettiion is in a great spot. the 5800x3d was misrepresented as being 'vastly superior' in a lot of ways - youi mention WoW for instance - WoW fps on the same systems (same ram, same gpu, same cooling, same psu etc) was improved on the R9 5900x for instance, which isa cheaper cpu than even the 5800x3d. at least now you can overclock... the 5800x was also found to be a better cpu when overclocked. in some games, for some reason, the influx of l3 cache was a big performance boost, such as escape from tarkov. but they were really few and far between, and it got beat in most benchmarks by cheaper ryzen 5, 7, 9 systems, and every 13th gen intel system on launch. not to mention the difference in cache memory isn't really that big between the 3d cpus andbasically all ryzen 9 cpus from the last couple years
