The CRYORIG H7 Quad Lumi is certainly an interesting cooler. It's an upgraded and better-performing version of the much-loved H7. It's still nice and quiet, hitting a maximum of 43 dBA during my testing while delivering solid cooling performance. For those wanting extra performance, there are the extra fan clips to install a second fan with to lower temperatures by a few more degrees. In regards to the original H7, the new Quad Lumi is a far better performer due to the extra heatpipe.

Clearance remains amazing. Memory modules with tall heat spreaders won't pose a problem, and even GPU clearance on a Mini-ITX system will be just fine. The H7 Quad Lumi won't have any issues fitting in with pretty much any system configuration you can think of. Even AMD's socket AM4 is supported for those rocking a Ryzen system. It also doesn't hurt that it remains fairly easy to install due to the simple mounting hardware.

When it comes to build quality, it is the same as always: CRYORIG once again offers a cooler that features very good build quality. No bent fins or massive gaps near the heatpipes, and the fan suffers from no weird tonal hums or grinds. Overall build quality is just superb in regards to the heatsink, and it's backed with a damn good three-year warranty that can be extended to six years by simply registering the product. Meanwhile, the RGB LEDs on the heatsink are uniform and nice and crisp with no variations in color, and the software works perfectly - there are no glitches or other such issues.

Only a few issues come to mind. First is price to performance. Simply put, at $60, it is expensive for the performance you get. What you are paying for is the RGB LED lighting. Granted, that may be worth the cost for some, but for others, it will likely not be enough to counter the price. Next, the fan has no RGB LED lighting and is instead limited in that it features white LEDs by default. While certainly not bad in that it does blend in, the fact remains that it doesn't quite match up either. I would have liked to see the whole package use RGB lighting since it is a fairly centric feature.

The only real issue I can think of in terms of quality is the backplate. It features tiny plastic tabs that help hold the backplate screws in place. While I didn't have any issues, I can see them breaking if someone were to slam the screws into the backplate, which means that you should take your time - it never helps to rush.

My only other thoughts come down to the only other RGB cooler I have reviewed - LEPA's NEOllusion. The CRYORIG H7 Quad Lumi is a better product overall. It offers better memory clearance which, along with the CAM software, gives it a slight edge. Add in the far better warranty and I would have to say CRYORIG has the better offering overall. LEPA's RGB implementation, however, is prettier to look at. Both come in at the same price, so it will depend on what's more important to the end user.

The CRYORIG H7 Quad Lumi has all-around solid performance and low noise output, with an in-your-face RGB LED implementation. So if you want to dive head first into the RGB craze, it might just be the place to start.
