ThermalrightAXP90 X36 Black Low Profile CPU Cooler, with 92mm TL-9015B Slim PWM Fan, ITX CPU Cooler, AGHP Technology, 36mm Height,for AMD AM4 AM5/Intel 1150/1151/1155/1851/1200/1700(AXP90 X36 Black)

The AXP90 is an amazing low profile CPU cooler and for the price it is completely unbeatable. Wherever you simply cannot use a tower cooler (because of height restrictions) or don't want to invest in an AIO, this cooler will suit your needs well.The Good:Cooling - For coolers with appropriate wattage, about 90W or below, the AXP90 will keep them cool, with the idle temps of lower draw chips, such as the Ryzen 5600G, being only slightly above ambient. Even running a full core workload at 100% the chip will be nowhere near thermal throttling.Noise - The fan used here, despite its size, is nearly silent. Even when almost completely open in the side of a Deskmini X300 I cannot hear it at all past a couple feet away from it; the fridge in the kitchen makes more ambient noise despite being half a house away.Price - I don't think you can get better for $23. Out the door for $25 with tax, having a low profile cooler be effective and quiet for less than half the cost of a competing Noctua option is enormous; I'd never pay twice the amount for something that can't do much better.The Bad:Mounting - The mounting, while being part of the nature of low profile options, is definitely tedious and you need to be prepared to replace the backplate to make this work. Unlike a lot of AM4 coolers which use the backplate already, this cannot. So be mindful of the order of assembly or you'll be forced to mount the cooler in-case behind a mess of wires (be real, you didn't cable manage)!Overall, I am very satisfied and would definitely recommend the AXP90 to anyone needing a low profile CPU cooler, limited budget or otherwise.

I needed a low height CPU cooler and this one works perfectly. It's cooling an AMD Ryzen 5600G in a tiny case and the temps are consistently under 75C under load. From a noise perspective, it's not bad at all, not as loud as I was expecting considering some of the other reviews.For the price, nothing else beats this in this size/form factor (from my experience). In the pics you can see the top of the cooler is level with the i/o panel on the ROG B550i motherboard.Installation was pretty straightforward, but you need to access the bottom of the motherboard to install it. Instructions could be better, but once you figure it out, it takes less than 10 minutes.I definitely recommend this if you need a low height cooler and don't want to spend a lot for it.

Basic low profile air cooler but gets the job done. Parts are well made and feels like it'll last a long time.

The fan is working well, but the instructions weren't great, at least for the AM4 installation: broken English, small print, and tiny diagrams drawn at hard-to-decipher angles.Once I got it installed, though, my CPU temp is looking good, even in a tiny ITX case with not-so-great ventilation.

I had an AM4 board, so I had to install the AM4 attachments. Putting on the brackets was a little tricky but after screwing it down, putting the cooler on the board was pretty straight forward, the fan is nice and quiet!

Was cooling great until the fan began making strange noises, and one day I noticed my temps were insanely high at idle and that is when I saw the fan was not spinning. Some fans can be crank started by spinning while on but even that wouldn't get it to spin. Should of gone with the noctua cooler instead of this.

Worked well for a few months then the fan stopped. Fortunately my computer shut down for the cpu over temp and is apparently unharmed.They used a fan that is available separately so I was able to order a replacement and it is all working ok now. This is the only heatsink fan that has ever died on me so I have a pretty harsh penalty on the review.As for cooling performance I have had no issues. I changed the rpm curve to be more aggressive and it rarely gets above 60c (ryzen 5 5600x no overclock).

Really slick CPU fan. It looks nice, keeps my CPU cool...just does the job.
