Thermalright AXP-90 X53 Black Low Profile CPU Air Cooler with Quite 90mm TL-9015B Low Profile PWM Fan, 4 Heat Pipes, 53mm Height, for AMD AM4/Intel LGA 1150/1151/1155/1156/1200/1851 (AXP-90 X53 Black)

I have a fractal terra case with a 9800X3D and 4070 Super. Gaming at 1080p high to max settings I get about 65-70 degrees. Kinda high, but I’ll take it since it’s a low profile cooler.

First time it didn't fit but when I ordered the second time it fit perfectly and it keeps the temps under 70 on my 9700x

Using this for my Ryzen 9 7900X3D in a mini ITX case and have slight thermal throttling but after slight undervolting it’s performing really well. I’d recommend it for mini ITX builds I think it’s doing really well for its size.

This fan is so quiet and works really well! Replaced my Optiplex 790DT cpu fan and it’s been really great! Definitely would pick up another for my next build.

Pretty good little cooler it works good for my amd ryzen 7 5700G

Been using it to cool a Ryzen 9600X inside my Fractal Terra for a month or so. Not a power hungry CPU but this cooler keeps it running cold. Didn’t even hit 70C on any Cinebench tests. With that level of thermal headroom I plan on upgrading my CPU eventually.

Cooling is great but ONLY IF you mount it correctly.I thought I had a dud cooler or maybe people were just full of lies because I had to remount this cooler more than 5 times before I got it to perform like I think it’s supposed to. I’ve built over 100 custom computers and have never had to remount a cpu cooler more than once.The trick to make this work is just a lot of luck and a lot of experience.My advice is stick with the Noctua because their mounting system is much more intuitive and user friendly. You get what you pay for and you really have to put in work to make this function properly.Pros:- looks great- performs great *I used a Noctua fan- keeps my 13600k under 90C on stress tests & gaming- great price- no fitment issues with heatsinks or VRMs on compact motherboardsCons:- Actual Instrcutions are nonexistent, you’re on your own.. and there’s no real help on YouTube or Reddit either.- Mounting System is less than desirable- You will end up needing to remount this cooler several times before you achieve an even contact for optimal cooling- Fan needs to be flipped to pull air away from CPU or your motherboard will be cooking over 75C along with the other components inside the case, including the case.

this cooler is being used on an asus Prime Q370M-C/CSM with a i9-9900k cpu. I bought this to do a simple build in a small form factor pc. I'm not overclocking or doing anything crazy. Just general workstation with the occasional movie conversions via handbrake. Again, i'm not doing anything crazy and wanted to stay as simple as possible whilst doing better than a stock intel cooler.The good: it has a low profile, quiet, and in use seems to be effective.The bad: the absolute WORST mounting solution imaginable, PERIOD! even someone with experience could damage their motherboard by over-torquing the mounting nuts. I can't even be certain i'm getting proper even contact with the cpu because the cooler stand-offs don't contact the board. it just kinda 'floats' on the cpu while being bolted to the board. and there really isn't any insulation between the metal backing plate and the traces of the motherboard, so that could theoretically cause issues.upon boot-up and going into the bios, my cpu was idling at around 95f, so it's doing something. I've gotta install the OS and try to see how well it'll do under use. I'm sure in that regard it's definitely more than adequate. I just don't believe saving the $20-$40 over a nactua or bequiet is worth potentially damaging important components like the motherboard. If you're not overclocking, i'd say you might as well save even more money and just use a stock intel cooler, otherwise pony-up and go with a more well-known enthusiast/professional brand like the aforementioned nactua or bequiet.update: this thing is terrible.. it might work if it had a good mounting solution so one could tighten it down properly without risk of damaging the other components, but..i installed linux mint on a i9-9900k based asus motherboard. i wanted to test out how well handbrake worked. not thinking anything of it i tried rendering a movie. it started out at a decent rate but within less than 2 minutes, the rendering fps were less than halved due to thermal throttling. the case is completely open. i felt around the underside of the cooler and the cpu was waaay too hot to the touch.so, i'm gonna try and send this back.. hope this helps someone make a decision
