So I picked up a 12th gen core i3 12100F. I didn't get a stock cooler with it so I needed one. The price of this bad boy is so low that why bother spending the money on a stock cooler? They're cheap as, but lets be honest, for $20 wouldn't you want the most cooler for the money? I installed redhat 8 on it, installed stress-ng and hammered the crap out of this build for 3hrs and the temps never got over 55c. Color me a believer. Granted this is a 58w tdp cpu. At max boost, 89w. Running it flat out for 3hrs, I was stressing the whole system, cpu, gpu, IO, system memory and it never broke a sweat. For low power builds I mean, no brainer. I have 240mm AIO's on my higher power systems and they keep things nice and cool but that was overkill for this little ITX build. I'm planning to build another one of these little mighty little systems and I will purchase another one of these coolers, no question.

Great little cooler for ITX. Have it installed on a 5800X3D in a fractal terra case. Keeps it at mid 70s in the majority of games with a -30 vcore offset.

Instructions were a little confusing since I was using this for a 1851 socket (core ultra 7). But the LGA 1700 worked perfectly for a 1851 socket.

Moved to this from the ID-Cooling IS47. My build is a Fractal Terra using the Strix B650E-I board and a 7800x3D. I figured I was able to squeeze a bit larger of a cooler in my case after using the 47mm for several months. I've seen lower idle temps by about 3-6 C and in games specifically, quite a measurable difference.For instance in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 at max settings at 4k, I was getting to around the thermal limit I had set for my cpu of 80C when using the previous 47mm cooler.Now that I am using this Thermalright 53mm cooler, I'm seeing temps stable around the 73-77 C mark. I haven't checked if I'm able to push more fps with these lower temps but I imagine so. Either way, I am very pleased with the 5ish degree headroom I am working with on this cooler. This cooler was incredibly easy to get setup onto my computer as well. All I had to do was take off the LGA1700 brackets that are pre-installed on the backplate of the coooler and fasten the AM5 ones. After that, it was just a matter of dropping the screws in and tightening the thumsbscrews on the backside of the motherboard and I was good to go.

O cooler é ótimo. Compacto e potente. Segura um Ryzen 7600x em 77 graus celsius durante gameplay em 1440p em jogos com FF XVI e Black Myth Wukong. É bonito e funcional.O ponto negativo é o processo de montagem do cooler na plataforma AM5. Péssimo!Em AM4 e Intel vi que é melhor, pois os buracos de entrada para os parafusos são maiores. Já no AM5, é direto no suporte do socket da placa mãe...péssimo! quase danifiquei a minha placa.Tenha em mente que é um ótimo produto, mas péssimo para instalar em AM5.

Using it on R7 8700G. It does a pretty good job at keeping it running cool. Happy with results.

Running a i5 intel proc with a small ITX box that needed a low profile cooler and fan. Works like a charm. No complaints. I don't know how it would hold up to a i7 or i9 for heat though.

Es un buen disipador para computadoras compactas, pero el metodo de instalacion deja mucho que desear.

I got this for a NAS case where it only just fits with a 14700K which boosts well above the coolers rating of 155W to 253W.The fact its pure copper seems to do an excellent job of allowing it to still turbo boost to the full 5.5Ghz for short periods, only thermal throttling if there is a prelonged load. Though worth noting, even a single core at 60W will thermal throttle, because Intel push those cores so hard on default settings, under-volting may help but not risking stability issues on my home server. Its actually less of a problem on multi-threaded loads as the power is dissipated over the whole chip.This is exactly what I needed as I have some PHP scripts that generates thumbnails on-demand to save disk space, rather than keeping permanent copies. As its only 100 images per page, its able to finish all thumbnails before saturating the coppers heat load, and being copper it dissipates that heat in seconds so the next page load still goes full power again.So while it may not get full performance out of the CPU in all scenarios (again, its not designed for such a beastly CPU), it really punches above its weight for my use-case. I'm actually curious if replacing the fan with something of higher airflow might prevent the throttling entirely.NOTE: I did use the Thermalright 1700 socket contact frame too, just to try to get the best thermal transfer. But this cooler clamps down quite tightly with 4 screws from under the motherboard so it may not have been necessary.

Cools decently well for what it is. Swapped out with a Noctua slim fan and it is quiet as well. INCREDIBLY confusing product names and lineups, make sure that you have the right one because there are like over 10 different versions of the same cooler, some aluminum, some copper, some painted, some not, and every combination of the above. Taking off a star for that since their product lineup really needs to be consolidated since it lead to a few wrong orders that has to be cancelled.

Fan blades and heatsinks have a lot of dust on them. There's used thermal paste still on the cooler. Returning since I don't know how long these have been used for and how much longer the fans will last.

Its a bit louder than what I had hoped. Keeps CPU around 43 - 48C when nothing is running.
