ID-COOLINGSE-214-XT ARGB CPU Cooler 4 Heatpipes CPU Air Cooler ARGB Light Sync with Motherboard(5V 3-PIN Connector) CPU Fan for Intel/AMD, LGA 1700 Compatible

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.

Pretty much what the summary says, I'm running a Ryzen 5 5600 in a stock ATX chassis and it keeps my processor nice and cool without a lot of fuss or noise. Installation was pretty easy, I just wish the heatsink attached to the rail standoffs a bit easier, I had a hard time with alignment between the heatsink itself and the provided standoff rails. And I say that as someone who's taken hundreds of computers apart in their day. But once it was on, the fan attached with the included clips pretty easily, just be aware of cable routing. As for size, it's big. it goes all the way from the motherboard to right to the chassis edge in terms of height. I thought for sure it wasn't going to fit my case but it just barely stays below the edge. Through all that though it keeps my processor nice and cool no matter what I'm doing. No thermal issues, no high fan speeds to report. I've been using my system normally to heavy for about 2 weeks now after installation and everything is as it should be. For an inexpensive heatsink it does the job perfectly.

This single-tower air cooler punches above its price tag. It keeps my CPU cool under load and stays quiet. Overall its good looking and has nice ARGB lighting that syncs up perfectly with my Aura Sync S/W. Installation was straight forward and mostly easy, and this was my first pc build.Final thoughts: Great temps, low noise, strong ARGB, good build quality and very affordable.but not ideal for high-TDP chips or extreme overclocking.

I got it on sale for $17 and it works. It keeps my 5800x3d at 38.4C - 42.7C at idle. When playing games, the max temp was 80.3C, but it averages around 70-73C. Did a really good job keeping it cool at this price point. The mounting process was really easy. It came with a back plate but the one that came with the motherboard works the same. I put it in my NR200P ITX case, and it fits perfectly. The noise is what you expect out of an air cooler, but there isn't any whining noise at high speeds, which is great. The RGB lights looked pretty nice and well-diffused. The only downside was the damage shown in the picture. Hard to tell what could have caused it. Whether it was shipping or during packaging. However, despite that the functionality was not impacted. Would recommend this cooler for any budget builds! You don't need to return/replace it if there's damage like I had but I was just being lazy. I didn't want to go through the trouble for $17.

I love this cooler for my budget white builds. It’s under $20 and it works perfect! It’s super easy to install, is very quiet, and the overall build quality has never failed me. The fan speed is adjustable and keeps the cpu cool!

I like the quality on the cooler and the fan. The parts were all there and installed fine. The RGB looks nice and charming, not cheap. I'm happy with its performance on the 5600x but I think I'd be better with a double tower design with my environments ambient temperature.The fit and finish of the plastic parts, and the overall design is more than enough for this price point. ID Cooling did a good job with this one.

its has a great temperture controlvery easy to installcolor matches my pc caseu can barely hear the fan running nice and quiet fanperformance is awsomegreat color functionality a+++ thank you amazon

Great budget option. It keeps my 7600x cooled very well. It's quiet and looks pretty. You can buy higher quality coolers for a little extra, but this is perfect if you're looking for a cheap, but effective cooler.
