FSP Group NP5 BLACK CPU Cooler - POO0000012

FSP Group NP5 BLACK is air cooling for the processor, aimed at standard to more serious gaming and work configurations, without going to massive towers or water. You get a compact black cooler with 120 mm fan and copper construction, optimized for the balance between airflow and noise. Supports modern platforms with AM4/AM5 and LGA 1200/1700/1851, so it is a good choice for both a new build and an upgrade. The lack of RGB is a bonus if you chase a clean black look and fewer cables.

What you get

The fan with size 120 x 120 x 25 mm works in range 800 – 1600 RPM (PWM), so at low load it can sit at lower speeds for quieter operation, and under pressure raise speeds for better cooling. Airflow up to 62 CFM, combined with maximum 1.8 mm H2O static pressure, is fully adequate for typical gaming and office CPU configurations, especially if your case has meaningful overall airflow. Noise level up to around 28 dBA means it will not dominate over the other fans in the system, even when working more actively. Copper material helps for more efficient heat exchange from the processor to the radiator, which is key during longer load. Standard 4 PIN connector and 12 V DC power supply provide full PWM control through your motherboard, without need for additional controllers.

• Air cooling with copper material, which ensures effective heat transfer from CPU to radiator.
• Compatibility with AM4, AM5, LGA 1200, LGA 1700 and LGA 1851, so you can use it with both current Intel and AMD platforms.
• Fan 120 x 120 x 25 mm offers good balance between airflow, noise and compatibility with most cases.
• Wide range of speeds 800 – 1600 RPM (PWM) allows automatic adjustment according to temperature and load.
• Maximum airflow up to 62 CFM and static pressure up to 1.8 mm H2O are suitable for cooling mass-market gaming and work processors.
• Relatively quiet profile up to 28 dBA, which makes it suitable for systems where you do not want constant buzzing.
• Clean black design without RGB and dimensions 120 x 48 x 151 mm, suitable for tighter cases and simple build.

Who is it suitable for

NP5 BLACK is a good choice if you assemble a budget or mid-range gaming computer, office machine or work station and want something more meaningful than stock cooling, without going into large towers or water cooling. Suitable for a clean, unobtrusive build without lights, as well as for more compact cases, as long as they cover the height of 151 mm. If you plan heavy overclocking or very hot high-end CPU, better to look at more serious solutions.

The most meaningful here is the combination of copper construction, PWM 120 mm fan and wide socket compatibility, gathered in a compact black package without unnecessary effects.
