Final Thoughts on the SAMA A60E CPU Cooler
When we met with SAMA earlier this year at Computex their whole thing was bringing out quality products at an affordable price under their own brand name. The A60E definitely fits that description! This dual-tower, dual-fan CPU cooler can handle thermal loads up to 265W, is easy to install, and the caps on the heatsink towers give it is sleek look inside your build.
As I mentioned we recently rebuilt our CPU test bench so we’ve only been able to test one other CPU cooler with this system. In our testing the A60E outperformed this cooler, especially in our heavy load test. Now it was slightly louder, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Installation of the A60E was quite simple, and you could easily install this cooler with your motherboard already mounted inside your case. The included instructions are very easy to follow too. Now that front fan is going to cover your memory so keep that in mind if you do have RGB memory, but you have 100% RAM clearance for normal-sized memory modules. Since we have two fans there is a Y-connector to connect them to your motherboard, I did notice that the power connection coming off the center fan was a bit short, which made it a little more difficult to connect.
I think if you are looking for a solid dual-tower, dual-fan air cooler the SAMA A60E is a great choice and it has a great price too! Selling for $59.99 at our favorite online retailer! Overall ThinkComputers gives the SAMA A60E CPU cooler a 9 out of 10 score.
Pros:
– Solid performance
– Price
– Easy installation
– Sleek, non-RGB look
Cons:
– Power cable for center fan is a bit short
