🌟 Cool Down, Power Up!
The ID-COOLING IS-67-XT is a low-profile CPU cooler designed for compact builds, featuring a 67mm height, 6 heat pipes, and a 120x15mm PWM fan for efficient heat dissipation and quiet operation. It supports a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets, making it an ideal choice for HTPCs and small form factor systems.

Amazing Small Form Factor Cooler
A fantastic small form factor cooler if you are space restricted. I'm using mine in the Fractal Terra and I've been loving it. The fan on the radiator can be a bit noise though, so I swapped it out for the Noctua NF-A12X15 and my temps have gone down dramatically. I'd recommend this cooler to anyone building a small form factor cause. An added benefit is the finstack can cover the top of low profile ram as well, allowing you to cool your ram and cpu at the same time. I really appreciate that as I'm in a very restricted case. Ultimately I higher recommend this cooler as it has great ram and vram clearance and is able to be used in so many different small form factor builds. It's definitely not going to be better than a cooler that is taller than it, but it is very comparable to competition from Noctua and Thermalright. The only thing id recommend to do is change the fan to a more quiet fan if you are concerned about noise. The actually cooler itself can be a bit of a pain to put on so the ease of installing does suffer a bit. Outside of that it is a really good cpu cooler and id recommend it to anyone building small form factor. Functions well and looks amazing.

Great cooling, fan can be loud under high load
First, the size. This cooler is very compact and fit snugly in my ITX motherboard (ASRock B550M-ITX/ac). You are given the option to orient the portion that has a bulk of the heat pipes in one of two configurations, and I was able to install it with no conflict to either my RAM or VRM heatsink. Installing the cooler was not difficult, the tools they provide are enough and the instructions are straightforward but kinda IKEA-ish so if you are having difficulty installing it you can find a youtube video that walks you through it (I did). I'm planning a small form factor build and momentarily installed this cooler in my micro-ATX case (Cooler master 300L) where I currently I have a Ryzen 7 5800x. This CPUs tend to run hot as it is, and I can definitely hear the fan kick in under full load, yet this cooler keeps it at a toasty 70C allowing me to maintain high clocks. I will say that high air turbulence negatively affects cooling in many cases. I saw this in my case (pun intended) which contributed to the higher fan noise, but changing the placement of my intake and outflow fans helped with both the cooling and the fan noise. Always make sure to not significantly disturb the flow of air exiting the cooler so that it can cool the heatsink with cooler air rather than recycled warmer air. The fact that the fan pulls air from the heatsink rather than blowing it down helps keep motherboard components cooler. If you are thinking of installing this cooler on an AMD system you should be adjusting your PBO settings in order to optimize your cooling as it is. This is a great buy for anyone making a compact system, just plan ahead and consider your airflow. I look forward to putting this to use in my Cooler Master NR2000 case.

Low Profile Beast
This little cooler had proven QUITE effective in my use with a 7800X3D and 9800X3D. Both are on Xproto open-air frames, but the cooler easily handles both chips, keeping gaming temps 70C or below, and is nearly silent under any gaming load. The low-profile blends nicely into the Xproto design.The cooler comes with a multiple-direction mount for AMD so you can turn your cooling in the orientation to best suit your needs. Mounting it as I did the downdraft gives my VRMs a direct airflow and the orientation of the fins means the NVME drive gets solid air movement as well.If your board has too large of an I/O area cooler the various orientation options mean you can find an orientation that works for you with ANY motherboard.

Great low profile cooler
I used this low profile cooler for multiple OEM pcs, including my main computer that has a i5-10500 and a HP PC with a i7-14700. No issues with overheating, will fit many boards, even OEM boards in this case. Great quality too, the ability to cool something like a i7-14700 is nothing to joke about, great value for its ability as a low profile cooler. installation was a bit tricky, but they provide a long 'screwdriver' to screw on the cooler so nothing was missed.

Effective, inexpensive, quiet, and looks great!
This cooler is super effective if you can fit it in your case and outperforms more expensive coolers. The fan is quieter than a smaller cooler (AXP90-47 FULL) with stock fan or a Noctua (embarrassing) fan while achieving 10° lower temps. Both the fan and cooler feel solid and don't have any weird vibrations when operating. Installation was a breeze, no messing around flipping the motherboard around trying to screw things down from the back like some other coolers. Oh, and the black on black looks great!!!

very impressive cooler for its size
I have some experience with low profile CPU coolers, and decided to use this one for my most recent build thanks in part to a recommendation in a YouTube video. So far, I have been very impressed with the performance. I did a 3DMark stress test, and the temperatures were so low relative to what I was expecting that I thought there was a mistake. The maximum temperature was in the mid 60s, considerably lower than other builds I have tested with low profile coolers. It also runs quietly, its barely noticeable even under load. Thermal paste and a very useful screwdriver with a 90 degree angle were also included. At this point, I love this cooler and plan on using it for any small form factor builds in the future.

Great cooling
Very low profile. Very compact. Perfect for small form factor builds. I upgraded my CPU & Motherboard and decided to switch from water-cooling to air-cooling. I thought the temps would go up but surprisingly this small heatsink is about as efficient as my Corsair H-100 GTX. My temps are generally in the 30s/40s at idle and don't go above the mid 60s at load. It was easy to install and is working better than expected.

Potential to snap off
Everything looked fine until it was time to screw the fan, one if the stand offs fell off from heat sink. Seems to be cheaply fastened. A bit difficult to line up the AM5 screws in such a tight space.
