Low Profile CPU Cooler Φ6mm*6 Low Profile Cooler 120mm Fan Low Profile CPU Cooler AM4 Compatible with AM5/Intel LGA 2011/2066(X79/X99)/1851/1700/1200/1150/1121/1155/1156/1366/1356/AM3/AM2/AM3+

I put this onto an LGA 2011 Xeon E5-2630 v4. On the knock-off X99 mATX motherboard it was a tight fit, blocking 2 of the ram banks no matter which direction it was turned. Thats not the coolers fault though. On a proper ITX/mATX/ATX board I think it will fit as expected and have clearance for the ram slots. Just a rough fitting on my AM4 itx board looks like it will clear the slots. What is caused by the cooler is comically low CPU temps. This is a fantastic cooler. During a 5 minute 100% on all 10 cores test, the temps never went above 40c Not believing the results I swapped this cooler for a server style passive heatsink and strapped a 40mm fan to it. The same test, temps were spiking to the 80c range. This leads me to believe the sensors are reporting the correct temps, so this is a win for cooling old server hardware that is repurposed for desktop use, if you can deal with running ram in single channel mode.

I have used a bunch of Coolers from different size AIO's to many different air Cooler brands and this is honestly one of the best I've come across. I had an ID-Cooling IS-33 before this and was great cooling wise it was so loud I added a noctua fan to reduce noise. After doing so I still wasn't completely satisfied with it so I went with this since it has a bigger fan stack and has clearance for large motherboard IO and it gets the job DONE. I have a 7700x PBO Tuned in this open air build that never goes over 75C and it is really quiet under load opposed to other coolers I've had in the past. Easy to mount, looks fantastic and its audible but not annoying ( Imean it is an open air case after all). Ultimately I recommend this product whole heartedly and I think it is being slept on as it only had a few reviews when I decided to give it a shot. Since my initial review I swapped out my 7700x for a 9800x3d and this thing still rocks! I have ut overclocked 150mhz to about 5.5ghz and have lower the voltage curve by -15 and this thing keeps it under 70c while playing games like Monster Hunter Wilds at 3440×1440 maxed out or around 80c in THE FINALS. This cooler is definitely for more efficient chips and if you go AM5 always PBO tune the chip but it is seriously an impressive cooler on an open air setup. For a case configuration I could see it adding 5-10c more but still more than cool enough for most modern ryzen chips that are rated to go 95c max.

First, it won't work with an AM3 CPU. It only ships with one set of mounting brackets, and they're for AM4/AM5. I needed this for an FX-8350, and it just doesn't fit. Second, it's poor quality. There's zero percent chance this would effectively cool a 150W TDP CPU without tons of airflow. I have a $10 cooler that has more mass and cools more effectively than this ever would. And the fan couldn't be any cheaper. I'm only giving it one star because I can't give it zero stars. Even with my expectations set low for something off-brand, it failed to even come close. I couldn't recommend it less.

Very nice efficient cooler, very quiet.

I just installed this about 25 minutes ago. It replaced a noctua low-height fan that was failing intermittently after 3 years. The immediate difference was so drastic compared to the noctua that I thought my sensors were messed up. Previously the only time I ever saw my 7700X hit temperatures below 40 were when it first started up on a cold morning after being off all night. Right now it's currently running at 37 degrees while I'm writing this review. A stress test brought it up to the 95 degree mark and I could barely hear the fan at full speed. I read lots of reviews about how well it performs which is what made me take the chance on it and I'm not disappointed. I would like to stress what others have said regarding the instructions for installing it. They are awful. You're probably just going to have to figure it out on your own because they're the worst instructions I think I've ever seen for a fan installation. Also I had to take the fan off and rotate it because it would only clear my motherboard's panel one way. It only BARELY clears my ram and I was afraid it might have caused issues with my RAM when I was installing it because the heatsink kept bumping into two of the sticks, but everything seems to be working fine. I'd recommend NOT installing it with the fan already on because it was pretty hard to align the little spring loaded screws with the brackets with the fan covering everything so you can't see. I'd recommend taking the fan off and installing the heatsink itself, then clip the fan back on afterward. Other than the horrid instructions everything seems to be better than I expected for such a cheap price. I'm impressed. I just hope it lasts longer than the 3 years my noctua lasted.

Seems nice cooler with compact size with good cooling power. But tightening nuts are back of the motherboard. This requires freeing mounting holes with removing cpu backplate which is not possible in my case where the mounting bracket and cpu retention mechanism is single piece. My Motherboard’s mounting bracket has own threads prevent screws going all the way back for nuts.

Good value for the price and good fit. It required a bit of moving the cross-braces around so the mounting bolts lined up, but once installed, it sits solid and is not very loud. Keeps a Xeon processor in a generally well-ventilated chassis 30c-40c, well in the lower range of temperature tolerance.

Super impressed with sound level and performance. 9800X3D scarce amount of paste under default settings under 100% load. See screenshot. Well ventilated case but I can't hear the cpu cooler with the other fans unplugged! Now to modify it to fit in a RAW S1 with a super slim fan! Great deal for the money! (See actual screenshot taken under load while typing this.)
