Thermalright AXP90-X53 Black Low Profile ITX CPU Air Cooler, 53mm Height, TL-9015B Slim PWM Fan ITX CPU Heatsink Cooler, AGHP Technology, for AM4/ AM5/Intel 1700/1150/1151/1200/1851(Black)

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.

Great for my ryzen 5, nice and quiet. I'd recommend for the SFF community. Works well in my laser cut wood PC case I made for my htpc

Works well enough for a small form factor case, but only for lower heat CPUs. For something like a 13400F, this will work perfectly, but so will the fan that comes in the CPU's box. This one is just easier to take off and put back on repeatedly, assuming you have easy access to the back of the motherboard. However, if you try to use this with something like a 14600K CPU, it will thermal throttle almost immediately.

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.

On an i5-10400F, keeps it nice and cool so far even during gaming.

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.

Item's backplate does not fit my motherboard. The backplate would press the motherboard electronic components when I installed it.

It's quiet, small, and cools well enough. Good mini-itx cooler for the price.
