  • Fits small cases great
Fits small cases great. I used it in my meshlicious, but its very tight with the ram sticks. You need to have really short sticks, or it'll push against the first one. I ultimately had to swap it out for an AIO because it couldn't cool my cpu enough, but I don't think that's fault of the CPU cooler itself! Will definitely use it in another build. ... show more

  • Super quiet, amazing performance
So I'm using this on a Jonsbo N1 and the performance is astonishing. Honestly love it, it's just perfect.

  • Great for ITX build using i5-12000k
CASE, MOBO, CPU, RAM, GPU: Black Lian Li Q58, ASRock Z690M-ITX/ax, i5-12000k, Corsair LPX RAM (16GBx2)- low profile RAM, MSI 3060 TI PC USAGE: I do some light gaming, and run multiple VM's but not at the same time. Occasionally some beginner level video editing. REVIEW: If you want to air cool this case with this CPU/GPU combo or similar team RED, this is the best cooling option for you IMO. The build quality is excellent, the fan is dead quiet. I am using low profile RAM, so your mileage may vary. The case clearance is 67mm and this has a height of 66mm, and while tight, I can assure you it does not touch the case and I have no issues with turbulence. I believe there is about 1.5mm-2mm of gap between the rad and the case. The fan sits a bit lower than the top of the radiator and vents 100% to the mesh panel of the case, so pretty much ideal. The radiator is perhaps 15% obstructed when the case is closed. Mounting: attach base plate prior to installing MOBO in case (the threads on the plate are mounted up) There is provided Noctua thermal paste with at least two applications. The radiator screws down into the base plate (using a provided screwdriver) through two holes in the radiator.- Mine came with AMD4 mounting hardware as well as LGA 1700. This will likely be the last step to complete the build. Make sure you plug into all the correct headers prior to mounting because the cooler/radiator will cover some of the headers and RAM. You will not be able to see the cooler fan in the case, as it is behind the rad. PS- the green glow is a MOBO light I never notice it while working and it does not bother me at night, I think the radiator diminishes/ shadows it. ... show more

  • Really amazing cooling, make sure to confirm dimensions
Just swapped cases to the Mini ITX Iqunix case. I trandplanted from the DAn Case A4 SFX and the but of extra room allowed me to get a bit bigger cooler. Everything fit great other than my taller than normal RAM, being the corsair domination set. Even without the top “brackets” on the RAM, they don't fit perfectly and do push one side of the cooler up just a mm or two. I ended up removing one of the fan mounting brackets and securing it with a custom mount on the RAM side. Still, the cooling performance is fantastic and the fit is great otherwise. Pick your RAM folks ... show more

  • If you need a powerfull cooler in a small space this is it.
It works and was not a pain in the butt to install.. Used it in a small and compact case..Easy to read directions with pictures in the directions.

  • Compatible with mini-ITX (with an adjustment)
This CPU cooler is great. It fits perfectly in a mini-ITX build, HOWEVER I strongly recommend that you flip the fan (sticker-side up) so that the air blows upward and away from the CPU. Otherwise, the hot air may remain trapped around your CPU if you have a mini-ITX motherboard. This adjustment decreased my idle CPU temp from 70°C to 50°C. ... show more

  • Came bent! I expected a little more.
Everything was fine except for when mounting it. The alignment of the cooler staring top down was a little off. It was enought to push my ram which made the clearance. For some reason it came bent and I don't really feel comfortable bending it back because I don't want to be held responsible for breaking it. I really like the heatsink tho. It's unfortunate that I got this experience but I will try to ask for a replacement. The fan also was pushing on my ram a bit as well too. Really well built and I think it's good value but without the small imperfections. I will update. ... show more
