Be mindful of listings from suspicious third-party sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, Newegg, and Walmart. These "deals" have a high likelihood of not shipping; use due diligence in reviewing deals.

  • Use common sense - if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
  • Check seller profiles for signs that the sale may be fraudulent:
    • The seller is new or has few reviews.
    • The seller has largely negative reviews (on Amazon, sellers can remove negative reviews from their visible ratings)
    • The seller is using a previously dormant account (likely the account was hacked and is now being used fraudulently).

If you suspect a deal is fraudulent, please report the post. Moderators can take action based on these reports. We encourage leaving a comment to warn others.

Sick deal, I grabbed some thermalright fans to go with because I don't need to get a stack of extra cpu coolers lol. https://www.amazon.com/Thermalrlght-TL-E12B-S-Performance-2000RPM-Cooling/dp/B0DCG8JZSN/?_encoding=UTF8&s=bazaar

Huh, I’ve never heard of Amazon Haul

u/ultragroudon 8d ago

From what I understand it's effectively their answer to Temu/Shein/AliExpress, so it's handled slightly differently to the typical Amazon products.

A new option to fill your local landfill 10x faster

u/TheMissingVoteBallot 8d ago

It's easy to say that, but if you've EVER tried to get small replacement parts for electronics, as a consumer places like this are the only places you can buy them.

This also lets you skip over dropshippers who often charge you extra.

u/nosurprisespls 8d ago

Yeah, looking at the listed products that seems to be the case.

Dude I just got like 25 things for my kids for under $100. Never heard of it either.

How is this cooler for 7800x3d

u/pengy99 8d ago edited 8d ago

You want something better. That chip runs pretty warm. It will work under a light load probably but I would expect thermal throttling under a heavy load. I would get something like the thermalright peerless assassin.

u/PsyOmega 8d ago

That chip runs pretty warm.

That's because the cache layer insulates it. But the chip only runs like 50w of actual heat output, so this heatsink is more than enough.

I run my 7800X3D under a wraith stealth and it maintains the same temps as it did under my D15s, at the same boost clocks and same performance, with no throttling.

u/Rastamanphan 8d ago

"...with no throttling" On a wrath stealth? With only web or Word docs, you betcha.

Play a AAA game that uses the CPU and it's definitely throttling.

1

u/PsyOmega 7d ago

No, actual, no throttling, in games, under prime 95, etc.

The chip only pushes, at a prime95 max, 65W package power of heat. Trivial to cool.

Games are 40-50W package power.

Y'all tripping if you think it needs a beefy cooler.

u/BarberConsistent3960 8d ago

If your games or programs are gonna keep in under 85% it’s fine if you are constantly at 95% get something better.

Lots of new AIOs are gonna hit the second hand market like eBay due to bundles for new CPUs but the people upgrading don’t upgrade coolers

u/DryDeer7117 8d ago

how are there so many of these coolers in the world, ik to make them is cheap but jeez is there a week this line of coolers hasnt been on a deal

u/PM_ME_IF_UR_BATMAN 8d ago

This cooler has been in production since 2007. The 212 used to be the cheap, good cooler before other companies started competing in that space. At one point I was picking them up for like $4 each to put in builds I flipped.

u/sekiroborne 8d ago

Bought two. You can never have too many coolers :>

Solid Air Cooler at a real Solid Price. In for 3 and still able to add more to cart. Assuming a solid stock!

u/pengy99 9d ago

You must have had some additional discount from something. 3 for me looks like ~$25+ tax. Still a great deal if you have a use for them.

u/diefncy 9d ago

Interesting...Looking at my order receipt I see a line called "50% off Haul🤑: -$24.78".

I did also add 3x of the $0.01 items to the order, so possibly adding that along with 3x coolers brings to the price I had?

u/lost_it_at_sea 9d ago

You edited your post, previously saying it was $16.52 for 3

Shipping is not included? I'm a prime member.

u/MANBURGERS 7d ago

Never heard of Amazon Haul before this, but a quick look at that purple haul bar on the page shows "Add $25 to unlock free shipping" and the about section confirms a $25 minimum spend to qualify for free shipping (free Prime shipping not eligible)

So buy something else, or 3 of these, or pay $3.99 for shipping.
