Return of this popular high-performance CPU cooler.

I recently needed a cooler and took a shot at this shoddy bare-bones listing. To my pleasant surprise, the seller is legit - I ordered the blacked PA-120 and it was delivered on the same day.

This is a great price given Amazon's speedy delivery. Previous prices:
- PA120 (Gray) - $69 @Firstblood
- PA120 (Black/White) - $69 + Delivery @BPC Tech
- PA120SE $55 + Delivery @BPC Tech

The difference between the PA-120 and the SE version besides cost is the top plate cover. The PA120 has a cleaner look than the PA120SE and is slightly taller (2mm).

NOTE: Ignore the stock photos on the Amazon listing, the top plate does have an etched Thermalright logo.
PS: Support bracket for LGA12700 is not included in the package. 12th/13th gen Intel owners beware!
EDIT: Amended out the PA-120SE, it went OOS fast.

  Could these be fakes? How come there's no branding?

    I doubt it's fake, likely a low-effort listing. I ordered from this seller yesterday.
    I submitted an user feedback, but it seems like the seller has disabled it.

    If you're desperate for a cooler, it's worth a shot. Amazon is good at honouring returns/refunds.

      I was pretty sure the seller "SenBa-AU" was flagged as new store and not trustworthy. think it was for SSDs, well if they deliver then its perfect.

      wish i found this link earlier, ordered from ebay 2 weeks ago, still waiting for it to come.

      This deal had limited quantity when posted. There was only 1 x PA120SE and its already sold out.
      Still 2 x Black $72.99 and 3 x Gray $74.03 available.

      Limited quantity Amazon deals should be posted here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/716496

  Thermalright FC140 is the best air cooler at this price point but not available in Australia

    Worth noting that the FC140 is slightly wider than the PA120/SE.

    The best thing you can do with this cooler is you can fit a slim 15mm thick fan to actively cool your GPU. This can be an advantage if your GPU has rear-mounted VRAM modules (eg. RTX 3090). It can help alleviate some of the design flaws/decisions Nvidia+AIBs made in regards to the back-plate cooling

  I'm overseas right now and not allowed to post new deal from Amazon but this one is currently in stock and appears to perform similarly to if not better than the PA120. https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0BLTN7Q8T/ref=ppx_yo_d…
