What started out as a promising $40 CPU cooler with RGB lighting and an interesting design turned into an oversized nightmare that failed at its one and only job, keeping your CPU cool.
Installation of the MasterAir G100M is a little more difficult that other coolers we’ve reviewed in the past, but definitely not the hardest. You are going to likely have to remove your graphics card and I would have to say this cooler is easier installed outside of a case. With that said we were able to install the cooler inside of a case without any major issues.
New to the market of PC building? Looking for that RGB lighting? The G100M can provide adequate cooling and really give your system aesthetic pop.
Reminiscent of the Jupiter 2 from the 1960's version of the TV series Lost In Space, the Cooler Master G100M is affectionately called the UFO cooler. The G100M is a low profile cooler designed to fit into smaller cases especially mini-ITX. The G100M...
Thermal testing shows that the cooler is well-suited for a daily driver system and the G100M can handle some light overclocking. For a small system build where you would need a low profile cooler that sees normal daily driver usage, this cooler is fine....
So here's what we have to say, the Cooler Master MasterAir G100M is definitely that one of its kind top flow CPU cooler you'll ever find in the market as of now. Other than its mushroom / UFO like design, the RGB element is definitely there if you're...
A spiffy-looking low-profile air cooler with a UFO-meets-RGB theme, the G100M is a solid-enough solution for CPUs with TDPs of 130W or less. Just know that installing it will require some dexterity.$39.99Cooler MasterMORE: Best CPU...
Overall I do really like this CPU cooler, It is one of the best looking coolers I've seen and it performed pretty good for such a small cooler.So do I recommend this cooler? Well that depends. If you have a specific need for a low profile cooler then...
PricingThe Cooler Master G100M is launching today for just £39.99, which is fantastic value for money for such a cool looking product with controllable RGB lighting. It's pretty competitive for price vs performance too, especially for those upgrading a...

Das Fazit fällt leider etwas kritischer aus. Der Kühler sieht super aus und macht einen sehr gut verarbeiteten Eindruck, doch ein CPU-Kühler muss kühlen. Am besten so, das der Sommer in vollen Zügen genossen werden kann. Als besserer Boxed-Kühler ist er...

Cooler Master signe avec ce MasterAir G100M un ventirad « osant » une approche originale. La prise de risque sur un segment « formaté » côté design est à souligner. Ce dissipateur vise le marché du milieu de gamme et les petits boitiers en raison d'une...

Un ventilateur au look plutôt sympa, au format low profil et aux nuisances sonores remarquables, ça sent le radiateur parfait pour un HTPC ou une configuration mini-ITX ça, non ? Alors oui les performances relevées ne sont pas les meilleures que nous...

Pour eux, tout a commencé par une nuit sombre, à bord de leur BX break 16S, tandis qu'ils cherchaient un bar pour finir leur tournée. Cela a commencé par une taverne abandonnée et un groupe de geek que l'abus d'alcool avait rendus trop déchirés pour...

Avec le G100M, on pourrait penser que Cooler Master mise tout sur le design. Le choix d'un caloduc central ne semble pas vraiment orienter les performances, mais il se montre être l'élément autour duquel tourne tout le design. Et ce n'est pas une...
