Cooling fan buying guide: CPU coolers, liquid coolers and case fans
This page has three kinds of cooling: CPU coolers that sit on the processor, liquid coolers with a radiator, and case fans that move air through the case. Start with what your processor needs, then check that it fits your case.
1. Decide whether you need a CPU cooler
Not every processor has a cooler in the box. The boxed Ryzen 5 5600X ships with AMD's Wraith Stealth (AMD), while the Ryzen 9 5900X (AMD) and 9950X (AMD) come without one. A stock cooler is fine for everyday use. A tower cooler keeps the chip cooler and quieter under long gaming sessions, which helps in a hot room. Check what your processor comes with on processor price in Nepal.
2. Match the cooler to the processor's heat
A 65 W chip such as the Core i5-12400 (Intel) is easy to cool with a single-tower air cooler. Coolers list how much heat they handle: Thermaltake rates the Toughair 510 at 180 W (Thermaltake).
Hot, many-core chips need more. AMD gives the Ryzen 9 9950X a 170 W TDP and recommends a liquid cooler for it (AMD) and for the Ryzen 9 5900X (AMD). Intel lists a 250 W maximum turbo power for the Core Ultra 9 285K (Intel), so give it a high-end cooler as well.
3. Check the socket
Coolers come with mounting kits for certain sockets. The Toughair 510 lists Intel LGA1851, LGA1700 and LGA1200 and AMD AM5 and AM4, along with older sockets (Thermaltake). Budget and older coolers may list fewer, so check your processor's socket against the cooler's product page before you order.
4. Check the height, or the radiator size
A tower cooler has to fit under the side panel. The Toughair 510 is 159.5 mm tall (Thermaltake), and the MSI MAG Forge 112R case takes coolers up to 160 mm (MSI), so it fits with very little room to spare.
A liquid cooler needs a case that takes its radiator. 240 mm and 360 mm radiators mount where two or three 120 mm fans go, and 280 mm and 420 mm radiators where 140 mm fans go. The Thermaltake TH420 V2 has a 456 mm radiator with three 140 mm fans (Thermaltake), so it needs a large case that lists 420 mm support. The Forge 112R tops out at 240 mm (MSI). Compare cases on PC case price in Nepal.
5. Pick case fans by size and connector
Most cases take 120 mm or 140 mm fans; the Forge 112R takes three 120 mm or two 140 mm fans at the front (MSI). A 4-pin PWM fan lets the motherboard raise and lower its speed with temperature, so it stays quiet when the PC is idle. A 3-pin fan has rougher speed control.
ARGB fans also need an ARGB header on the motherboard or a controller. Count your fan headers too: the MSI B650 Gaming Plus WiFi has six (MSI). Whatever you buy, clean the fans and filters regularly; dust is a common reason a PC gets louder and hotter over time.

Cooling fan FAQ
Do I need a CPU cooler if my processor came with one?
Not for normal use; the stock cooler is enough. An aftermarket cooler is worth it for long gaming sessions, overclocking or a hot room, where it keeps the chip cooler and quieter.
Should I buy an air cooler or a liquid cooler?
An air cooler is simpler and has no pump. A liquid cooler suits hot chips like the Ryzen 9 9950X, where AMD recommends one, but it needs a case that takes its radiator.
Will this cooler fit my case?
Compare the cooler's height with the case's maximum CPU cooler height, or the radiator size with what the case supports. The Thermaltake Toughair 510 is 159.5 mm tall, for example, and the Thermaltake TH420 V2 needs 420 mm radiator support.
What is the difference between a PWM fan and a 3-pin fan?
The fourth wire on a PWM fan lets the motherboard set its speed precisely, so it can spin slowly and quietly when the PC is idle. A 3-pin fan is slowed by lowering its voltage, which gives coarser control. Either type plugs into the motherboard's fan headers.
Which cooling fan brands do you sell?
Antec, ANT Esports, Cooler Master, DeepCool, Fantech, GameMax, Huntkey and Thermaltake. Every price on this page is our current website price.
Do you deliver cooling fans outside Birtamode?
Yes. We usually deliver all over Nepal in 2 to 5 days, and delivery is free within 15 km on products over Rs 5,000.
