  • Ninja Plus is Junk. My origin cooler with dual 120mm fans, one front and one back create perfect air flow, temperature from 39C to 50C max. After installed Ninja Plus along dual fans remain place, temperature only 1C lower to as high as 51C. Blow my brain is, peoplee hype up gimmick without even test the dual 120mm fans in the box 1st then jump into conclusion Ninja excellency. Wasted my $ and time due to the unproven text result with flaws. I saying this because I even tested in socket 478 old pc, same thing with dual fans flow in case. In conclusion Ninja is ajavascript:%20void(0); piece of junk other than try sell hype..
