Powerful Little Cooler for Micro-ATX Builds
Installed the Thermalright AXP90-X53 Full Copper on my micro-ATX system, and I’m seriously impressed. Despite its small size, it keeps my CPU temps low and runs almost silently. The full-copper design not only looks great but performs way above expectations. Easy to mount, solid quality, and perfect for compact cases.

Best cooler for itx
Works great with the stock fan but if you have a few extra bucks put a bigger not so slim fan on with better static pressure and you got yourself a great copper cooler it can cool the 9600x easily and keeps it around 75⁰c installation was simple and easy on am5 fits really well in any case looks amazing as copper should

Decent Cooler, Terrible Installation
I'm just adding on to what many others already said; I had a poor experience with mounting the cooler. The instructions weren't difficult to understand, but it felt finicky to place the heat sink on the CPU, turn the motherboard upside-down, then install the backplate. I could not tell if I mounted it evenly, and I was reluctant to tighten the nuts since I didn't want to over-torque them and potentially damage the socket. The backplate has "AM4" on one side and "LGA1200/1700" on the other; according to the instructions, the side you see should match your motherboard socket. I was installing this to an ASRock LGA1200 motherboard, but the LGA1200 orientation did not work because the motherboard had obstructions to the backplate, so I ended up using the AM4 side with the longer screws designed for it. Weird, but this issue seems to be somewhat common. Once I got past the issue of installing the cooler and saw how it performed, I was satisfied with the result. Admittedly, I'm using a 65W TDP CPU (i5-11400F) so it's not hard to cool, but the fan's noise profile is excellent. It's near silent under 1900 rpm, and pleasant until it goes over 2300 rpm. As for cooling, it had no problem keeping my CPU from thermal throttling during a 10 minute Cinebench R23 stress test (it never hit 80°C). Overall, it's a good CPU cooler at a decent price if you can stomach the installation process. I would only recommend getting this for cases with less than 67mm cooler clearance as I would very much prefer to use the cheaper Thermalright Assassin X120/Assassin King, or slightly more expensive Thermalright AXP120-X67.

Cpu cooler
It works fine if you let the fan at full speed. Then it keeps the cpu nice and cool. I just wished the price was 20 like the others. These do have a weird bracket setup as the 1700 brackets that came installed didn't actually fit my 1700 cpu. I had to use the second largest and that worked perfectly.

Really surprised how well this low profile cooler works
I was worried about buying this as it isn't a normal "name brand" cooler for my server rack. I needed something with really low clearance and I thought I would give this a shot. So far it's working perfect for my rack server running plex. Everything stays cool, it's quiet, it fits perfectly in the rack, and the value was spot on. Don't hesitate to snag it.

Great LP CPU cooler
Works well with 7800X3D with some slight under volt bios setting.

meh... ok... sorta...
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

Just buy it
Just buy it. Note that there's a difference in the full copper and white/black models with the copper being the best performer. I currently use this with a 65w 6 core 9600x in an ITX build. It performs perfectly with temps being under 45 at idle and not surpassing 70 in a stress test. I'd be comfortable even using it on a 9700x or even a 9800x3d. Installation was straightforward and I would definitely buy another.

Ugly but does a great job.

En güzel düşük profil soğutucuları bu firma yapıyor. Performans yeterli ve son derece sessiz çalışıyor. Tabii doğru işlemci ile kullanıldığında. Son derece memnunum.

The product quality is good. It worked as intended. But cooking my ryzen 5 9600x cpu was a difficult task inside sugo sg13 mini itx case. There was not much of an airflow inside the case. I managed to make it work only through undervolting and underclocking. This is probably the best low profile cpu cooler in this range. But there are better coolers if space is not a constraint. So, assess your needs carefully before you make the jump.

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.
