Introduction

A big thank you to Cougar for supplying the review sample.

Cougar isn’t a newcomer by any means in the DIY PC market, as they can trace their origin back to 2008. Since then, they have continued to expand, delivering power supplies, coolers, liquid coolers, fans, keyboards, mice, cases, and much more. With a diverse portfolio along with a drive to deliver exceptional products and fair prices, Cougar continues to grow at a rapid pace. While the brand may not be as well known in the USA, consumer awareness is growing. Meanwhile, they have become a force to be reckoned with in the EU and abroad.

In today’s review, I will be testing Cougar’s Forza 85 CPU cooler. This large single-tower cooler uses an offset design for perfect memory compatibility, while systematically increasing heatsink size and mass for better heat dissipation. As for the 120 mm fan, it is Cougar’s MHP120 which offers a wide PWM range, so users can have quiet cooling or extreme performance depending on their needs. With that said, it’s time to get down to business and see what Cougar’s current flagship air cooler can do!
