Benchmarks seem to suggest it's on par with 240mm aio, but it can't compete with 360mm. You don't often need cooling options more than this unless you are running top end hardware or are running high end hardware in a fishtank case.

It's a little better (temperature wise, no necessarily for fps), but costs a little more. For most processors, it just comes down to look between the two. I doubt you'll notice a difference in fps if there is any for your case.

Then we wouldn't know there was a YT video on the cooler, and chatgpt could help too. I wonder if chatgpt could file tax returns.
Google I guess.

P.S. No go on taxes.

It is generally ranked slightly better. I've been running the original version for a couple years.

Chatgpt is terrible with giving advice on computers. It sources data from everywhere including userbenchmarks and a lot of old data. To answer the question the phantom spirit cools one or two degrees cooler than PA. The evo has higher rpm fans so can get louder than the se version. But the fans are better quality than se and have a little rgb. I like my evo and keeping fan curve controlled never gets loud

This Phantom Spirit has an extra heat pipe vs. the Peerless Assassing (6 vs. 7), so slightly better performance. The PS also has some LEDs if you're into that.
