A big thank you to PCCOOLER for supplying the review sample.
Founded in 2005, Shenzhen Fluence Technology PLC, the company behind the PCCOOLER brand, has begun to more rapidly expand. Specializing in the research, development, and manufacturing of essential components like CPU coolers, RGB case fans, computer cases, and power supplies, PCCOOLER is a leading brand in China's domestic market. Furthermore, their products have begun to achieve recognition which when paired with the companies current reach of over 35 countries—including the USA, Brazil, Germany, Japan, and South Korea—means their popularity and growth is likely to continue at an accelerated pace.
Today's review has me quite interested since it's the first time I have covered a PCCOOLER product namely the RZ820 BK. This monster dual-tower, dual-fan air cooler comes in at 161 mm long, 150 mm wide, and 165 mm tall. It uses a non-typical heat pipe layout as well with a combination of 4x Ø8 mm and 4x Ø6 mm heat pipes for improved heat transfer. In the looks department it sports a magnetic top cover and clean boxy design, along with a simple ARGB lighting accent. It also makes use of a slide system for the front fan that makes it easy to adjust upwards for improved memory clearance. Taking all of that into account it's not hard to note that on paper, it looks like a fantastic offering, but seeing is believing, so let's take a closer look and see if the performance lives up to its size.
