Compare: Assassin IV vs AXP90-X47 Full Copper

Design and Aesthetics:

Assassin IV

This cooler boasts a clean and modern design that sets it apart from other air CPU coolers available today. The entire cooler is tightly put together, which can make it a bit tricky to figure out how to take it apart into its different parts. The middle fan is hidden seamlessly without any visible gaps around it. It comes in an all-black design with DeepCool's signature textured radiator, adding a stylish and modern touch to any setup.

AXP90-X47 Full Copper

This cooler features a sleek, low-profile design, making it an excellent choice for compact builds where space is a priority. Its copper construction not only enhances thermal performance but also adds a distinctive look that stands out in any setup.

Install Notes:

Assassin IV

Installing the Assassin IV is made easier with its smooth setup process. However, because it's small and designed with a lot of details, getting it installed correctly might be a bit tricky if you don't follow the instructions they give you. This cooler uses a bracket that's almost the same as premium coolers and attaches to the motherboard in a way that's like the AK620 model. Figuring out how to put the cooler onto the brackets might be a bit puzzling because its design is so seamless and neat. The top metal mesh that covers the fan sticks on with a magnet, so you can easily access and remove the middle fan during installation. Then, you can attach the cooler to a two-point system and put the middle fan back in place. However, this cooler doesn't put it's fan in the front like most other coolers, so the exposed fan faces the rear. One neat thing is that the fans are already connected, so you only need one plug to turn on both fans and the cooler's LED DeepCool logo. There are additional brackets to potentially add a third fan to the front of the cooler.

AXP90-X47 Full Copper

Installing this cooler is more involved than a standard cooler due to its low-profile design, which requires it to be screwed in from behind rather than from the top, as is common with most coolers. While the installation is relatively easy if the motherboard is not yet secured in the case, it can be challenging if you attempt to install it with the motherboard already mounted. Additionally, the cooler's brackets are attached via screws that need to be removed and swapped depending on the CPU you're using.
