- Four 6 mm copper heat pipes with an aluminium alloy fin stack
- 120 mm PWM fan running 800–1600 RPM for 62 CFM
- Rated noise level of 28 dBA
- Addressable RGB lighting and a 151 mm total height
A Quiet Upgrade for Mainstream Builds
The NP5-BA is a compact single-fan tower cooler for mainstream systems: a mid-range gaming PC, a home office machine, or any build where the stock cooler is too loud. FSP rates it for 200 W of heat. Four 6 mm copper heat pipes make direct contact with the CPU and carry heat into an aluminium alloy fin stack, which a 120 mm PWM fan cools at 800 to 1600 RPM. At 151 mm tall it suits most mid-tower cases, but check your case's CPU cooler clearance before you buy, especially with slim or compact chassis.
NP5-BA or the Bigger MP7?
The low 1600 RPM ceiling and 28 dBA rating make the NP5-BA the quieter of FSP's 120 mm tower coolers, but it is also the smaller one: four heat pipes against six on the MP7, and a 200 W rating against the MP7's 280 W. If you run a high-core-count processor under long all-core loads, the MP7-BA is the better match. The lighting is addressable RGB, so it needs an ARGB header on your motherboard or a separate ARGB controller. LGA 1851 uses the same mounting method as LGA 1700, so Core Ultra owners install it the same way.
FEATURES:
- Broad socket support for Intel LGA 1851/1700/1200 and AMD AM4/AM5
- Four 6 mm direct-contact copper heat pipes for quick heat transfer
- Aluminium alloy heatsink with a large fin surface area
- PWM fan speed control from 800 to 1600 RPM with a hydro dynamic bearing (HDB)
- Addressable RGB lighting you can sync through motherboard software or an ARGB controller
