SE-224-XTS Black CPU Cooler With 4 Heatpipes, 120mm PWM Fan for Intel LGA1700/115X/1200; AMD AM4/AM5

Great little cooler, was very fun to install too. Very sleek in the pc. Not too loud at all. Definitely worth the price!

Decided to build up a budget PC to sell using old overclocked i7 2600K (4.4Ghz). To test the build I'd been using an Arctic freezer LP I had lying around. CPU was spiking at 90C+ just running Fortnite - totally inadequate! But with a budget focus build in mind I wanted something that would keep temps under control, maintain a discrete black aesthetic but also not cost the earth. This ID cooling fan fit the bill with black top and fan! It's able to keep CPU temp in low 60Cs when fully loaded with Prime95 and in the 50Cs in games. The item I received had all the mounting hardware and I found the fitting instructions clear. I think there should also have been some thermal grease included but there wasn't any. No matter, prefer to use Arctic silver anyway.

It’s good keeps to cpu at a ok temp haven’t fully tested in a hard core game yet only gta but I recommend if ur on a budget and noise is not loud but u can still hear it a. Bit

Having had to buy a new Air Cooler for my Fathers PC due to the AIO leaking I stumbled across this cooler on Amazon. Reading the reviews I decided to purchase due to overwhelmingly good feedback and decent price. This is a very easy to install air cooler, and kept the PC under load at a nice 38-50 degrees Celsius. (Average was below 30 for normal use) Can’t complain at all about the product, works a charm. Highly recommend.

For the money this CPU cooler is incredible. Thermally as good as Noctua. Slightly more noise than Noctua at full speed, but it keeps the CPU cool. I use an AMD 5700x, using the Wraith Prisum Cooler that would get to 70 Celsius under heavy workload or heavy gaming. This ID cooler keeps temps @ 50 Celsius under heavy workload or heavy gaming. It does come with its own thermal paste that you need to apply, I opted for one by Arctic that I have much experience with. I'm sure the thermal paste supplied would do the job fine. Amazon great price, but seriously a underpriced product for it's thermal abilities.

Excellent. Replaced the original amd hs and fan. Pc is alot quieter.

The cooling performance with this item is awful, I do not know if I potentially have a faulty one with a bowed base but I am getting 55c idle temps and 95c load temps on an AMD 8600g, I get better temps with the stock supplied cooler I read such good reviews about this cooler even handling high wattage CPUs and keeping idle temps down in the 35c range with load temps at max 75c I have been building computers for over 25 years, this is used in a Cosmos 2 case with huge amounts of airflow, I tried remounting it using the red AM4 standoffs it came with in case there was a pressure issue with the AM5 ones, I also tried with the paste supplied as well as Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and Arctic Cooling mx-6, neither of which made a discernible difference I contacted ID Cooling directly to ask if this was temps I should be expecting and their response was simply "Yes,it is normal. Thanks for your email." So I won't ever buy an ID Cooling product again and I will be returning this as it is simply not fit for purpose

After trying to fit an Arctic 7 cooler on a LGA 1700 & Z690 AORUS ELITE DDR4 board and giving up due to the VRM heatsinks getting in the way I ordered this cooler. The fitting kit is so much better! Firstly you have the brace at the back of the board, you attach the relevant mounting bars and spacers depending on your type of socket. Then thermal paste the CPU up and screw down the heatsink, attach the fan using the provided clips, connect the fan to the header and away you go. One thing I noticed in the instructions, they were lacking information on heatsink orientation, you will notice that one side of the heatsink has more clearance and that's the side for the fan so place that facing your RAM if your looking to push air out the back of your case. This cooler is overkill for the system I was fixing but on the i5 12400 which was running at 60C idle and thermal throttling at full load this cooler would not go above 50C at full load and sat at +1C above ambient for idle!!! I did add a thermalright LGA1700-BCF cpu plate as this was 50p more than the thermal paste I was going to buy and it came with some so this would have helped with this CPU but this cooler did come with a tube of thermal paste too which is didn't state in the description. If you have a 12th or 13th gen intel cpu these plates are worth adding.
