Great cooler, great price, handles Ryzen 9 (5950x) CPU just fine.
Impressive little cooler, especially when you consider the price. Currently using it on a 5950x. Was worried it wouldn't be enough for this CPU, but after doing the Multi-core R24 Cinebench test the CPU temp stayed around 66C the entire time, with one small spike of 72C at the beginning of the benchmark. So, if it can handle 145 watts just fine, I think you could even get away with using this on a 7950x or 9950x (maybe not the 9950x, but I'd be curious to see someone try). No need to spend way more on a noctua, this cooler is great. Why did you pick this product vs others?:Low price and good reviews.Mountability:Easy to mount.Size:It's definitely not a small cooler, but I was able to fit it in a 18L ITX case without any issues. Noise level:Fans are very quiet. Build quality:Had to gently bend two fins back in place, but I think that's bound to happen during shipping due to how thin the heatsink fins are. Wouldn't really call that a downside, just felt like it was worth mentioning. Otherwise, the copper base looks well machined and the headsink assembly is overall very sturdy. Airflow:I'd recommend making sure you have an intake fan very close by this cooler, even if it means you have to change to a back-to-front airflow configuration. After changing to that setup, my temps went way down. I think it's just a good practice to feed your CPU coolers cool, fresh air.

Does what it's supposed to at a fantastic price
A little complicated to install, as it required removing the motherboard. However, once in place, my temps dropped by more than 40C on my core i5-9400f. I was having overheating issues where the stock Intel cooler was hitting 100C during more demanding stretches of gameplay, causing the computer to crash. It's now idling in the high 30s and during the same stretch of gameplay, the CPU is sitting at a comfy 48C, with spikes only going as high as 52C. When I connected it to the aRGB controller, it automatically picked the color and applied it without having to go into the GUI. For noise level, I'm in a room with a window AC, so it's hard to say that it's silent, but, I can't hear it anymore over the AC unit, where I could with the stock cooler. It's a perfect fit for the case, and looks fantastic through the glass side panel!! Great job!

Fantastic, but fragile
My son got this for his FIRST gaming computer, and my first computer build in over a decade. He loves the ARGB, and I love the performance and value.PRO: Quiet and "cool":++ VERY quiet -- way more quiet than the stock AMD cooler (per reviewers). Not silent, but even at full speed it's more quiet than I expected. Just above a whisper with the case open. Wow!++ Seems to cool well (On a mid-powered AMD Ryzen 7600X, 65W to 105W).++ Heatpipe shape "setback" leaves ample room for any size RAM sticks (On an ASRock B650M Pro RS WiFi mATX motherboard).++ Impressive machined copper CPU contact points.++ Long fan wires, versatile mounting hardware options and included thermal paste made it easy to install.++ ARGB colors may be a bit cliché, but damn, it's fun and cool! (and can easily be turned off or unplugged.)++ Arrived in perfect condition (no bent fins from the manufacture or shipping)**.CON: Bulky and fragile:-- This cooler's height is 150mm, and I found out the hard way that it does NOT fit into a old-school mid-tower mATX case that is 175mm wide externally. Now that it's installed, I can measure the case's mobo stand-offs (~12mm), plus the AMD AM5 CPU and motherboard (10mm thick), plus this 150mm cooler... all add up to about 172mm, which is about 3mm to 5mm too much for the internal space, and the case's side-panel won't completely close. So, I have to leave the panel slightly ajar with a 5mm gap on one edge (better ventilation?). :-) This is my own fault for taking a gamble with my old narrow-ish case. I tried to find a good 145mm cooler, but didn't find many options. I wish this one shaved 5mm off it's height. So close! I'll make it work.-- This cooler fan's center sticker is slightly off-center, so it LOOKS like the fan is out-of-balance (wobble), but the fan is actually in balance, so it's just a minor visual annoyance. I'm tempted to remove the sticker.-- **Even when we were being extremely careful, we bent a few fins during install and PSU wire routing (minor, cosmetic).Wishlist:o Given the ample space between the CPU and the these bottom fins (and ample RAM clearance), I would like to see a re-design that is 5mm smaller, so it's 145mm tall.o Some sort of plastic frame around the edges of the cooling fins, so we're less likely to bend them? (I know this would increase cost and possibly lessen the cooling capability, but hey, I can dream, can't I?).

Good when stock but easily enhanced with an extra fan
I was upgrading my gaming PC but essentially needed a new motherboard to allow for AM5. I wanted to maintain my old machine in a bootable useable state so left everything but the GPU and some SSDs in the old case. My new case was a mATX "fish tank" and I was a little worried about cooling, including the Ryzen 5 9600X that I fitted. However, I was also working to a budget and had to compromise on the cooler price. This is a great price for what seems to be a very highly rated cooler and despite only 4 pipes and a single fan, temperatures remained acceptable under heavy load. Unfortunately, the 3 case fans were all exhaust and the airflow wasn't ideal so I bought a bulk pack of additional 120s to bolster with intake air. This helped a little but I then decided to add one of the new fans to the rear of this cooler... AND BOOM! PERFECT. Cooling is now outrageous with CPU idle temps in the 30s and extended period full load temps using OCCT being held in the mid 60s. Unfortunately, I didn't run the OCCT bench before fitting the extra fan but I had seen temps well into the 70s while gaming. So yeah, this cooler works great, especially if you add an extra fan for a few extra bucks.

Great value
Got this for a friend's build using an AMD APU for light workloads. This has great performance for the money!Definitely would want something more for a higher end CPU but for a midrange APU this performs absolutely great.

just buy it
let me just say that i have a r7 5700x and a stock cooler, with this cooler my idle temps are now 39 degrees and max temps is 70 in helldivers 2 on super helldive mode
