Thermalright AXP-90 X36 Black Low Profile CPU Air Cooler with Quite 90mm TL-9015B PWM Fan, 4 Heat Pipes, 36mm Height, for AMD AM4/Intel LGA 1150/1151/1155/1156/1200 (AXP-90 X36 Black)

Good quality. 9800x3d needs undervolting (-25 in my case), and TDP limitation 100W. In these settings the temperature is maximum 70-72 C, often even less.

given its size it is very capable fits in s400 V2 itx pc case (specs says up to 65 but 67 fits)

I have this paired with a 13600KF and B760i motherboard. With a slight 0.150mv undervolt this can keep up with the insane demands of the 13600KF comfortably

I am very happy with the product.

Good product, does everithing one can expect from the specs and description. The only issue is the LGA1700 backplate interferes with some surface mount components on the back of the ASUS ROG Strix B660-i gaming wifi motherboard i am using. Unpleasant, but nothing a few minutes with a file couldn't fix.

This Low Profile CPU cooler is good for keeping relatively low wattage CPUs cool. I have it installed on P8H77-i ASUS motherboard with an Intel Xeon e3-1230v2 CPU (69W TDP according to Intel). I think the max temp that I saw was 74°C while gaming. It's not too loud either. The installation is not for a first time builder. Now, installing this cooler is an experience. I believe it is referred to as a reverse install. The standoffs are to be installed to the heatsink which *should* extend through the metal backplate. You then hand tighten the fasteners. Make sure you check the edge of the motherboard for flexing. If your motherboard is flexing, the fasteners are too tight. Overall, it's a good low profile 90mm CPU cooler for a low power, small form factor (SFF) build. Follow the installation instructions and be mindful of how tight you tighten the fasteners, it'll be satisfying to know you didn't bork your motherboard when it boots and isn't overheating.

I needed a smallish simple to install cooler to use on my test bench occasionally and didn't want to spend a ton of money. Threw it on my i9-12900ks running the standard clock frequency with the power limits unlocked and my custom undervolt profile. To my surprise this little cooler performed better than I expected. For everyday tasks it was basically silent. Running Cinebench R23 with the fan at 100% was noticably louder but acceptable and kept the CPU from thermal throttling right away like some other coolers I have tried. While gaming the CPU stayed around 60-70c depending on the game and how hard it was pushing the CPU. I'm normally a custom water-cooling snob but I would have no problem using the cooler on a less extreme CPU. And for $26 this is now my favorite CPU cooler for under $30 dollars. Ironically enough, the Thermal Grizzly Graphine thermal pad I used with the cost almost as much as the whole cooler lol.

Bought this for the fractal terra case alongside the ryzen 5700x, under full load it can keep it under 80c

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.

Tested this against Big Schuriken 3RevB and AXP-100, and found AXP-120-X67 to perform the best. 0.5-1 degree lower temps than Big Schruriken, while being cheaper and more easily obtainable.
