A Closer Look

The AK620 Zora looks amazing, with a dark black design on the towers, but a bright yellow trim around the top plates that provide a striking contrast.

The cooler comes pre-assembled, so the fans are already in place and ready to rock. However, you’ll have to quickly remove the middle one to be able to screw it onto your motherboard, but it clips back in easily enough, so that’s hardly a big deal.

The fans are 120mm, and use a set of retention clips on each side, so you could always swap these for different 120mm fans if you ever felt the need.

The back of the cooler has this 3D cube pattern, which looks awesome, but also helps to vary the speed of the air as it exhausts from the cooler, this slight turbulence will help pull more heat from the cooler and diffuse the air as it leaves the heatsink.

Up on the top, we have the real star of the show, as it features this amazing Zoria: Age of Shattering digital artwork, with a large sword on one cooling tower, and a silhouetted archer on the other.

I know this will appeal to the fans of the game, but also anyone who just wants a more unique PC theme will appreciate this battle-themed design. Maybe pair it with an aggressive GPU design like the MSI lightning series, and the Z790 Tomahawk motherboard, I think that would look pretty epic.

The fans get a unique design too, with that matte black exterior, and creamy yellow fan blade design. Bright colours aside though, these are great quality FDB 120mm fans that we’ve seen on a few other DeepCool products, so we know them to be good performers.

The contact plate is massive and beautifully machined to a flat and shiny finish, with six thick heat pipes that cover the entire plate and run vertically through both of the cooling towers.

The fans come with some short PWM cables, and there is a Y-splitter extension cable in the box to hook it up to your motherboard.

The mounting kit is largely pre-installed, just put the retention plate and arms onto your motherboard, AMD or Intel, and then the cooler is attached using these two built-screws.
