Greater than one weekGreat cooler used for a micro PC build. Fan is so quiet I had to check for air flow to make sure it was running! I will definitely be buying more Noctua fans and coolers in the future. Awesome equipment Noctua!

> 3 dayLove the fan, super high quality. The mounting kinda was ridiculous though but Im not sure how to make that better. You have to hold the mounting bracket backplate, fan, and the screw in place all at once. I guess you could temporarily tape the backplate and then remove it after install. But yeah its dead quiet, looks great, and truly is low profile.

Greater than one weekThis cooler was so easy to install into the tiny ASRock Deskmini. It is amazingly quiet, even under load. Far quieter than the stock cooler it comes with.

> 3 dayEDIT as of 3/26/2020: I ended up returning this cooler and going with a different cooling solution. The idle and load temps in my case (Thermaltake core v1) were far too high for my liking after a burn in period. This cooler has a MAX of 65W TDP and Noctua is serious about it. Despite the temps, this cooler is very quiet, and I am not knocking any stars as it looks great and would do a great job on a less intensive CPU, like a Ryzen 3 or similar.

> 3 dayI purchased this to go in a mini ryzen 5 PC. The performance has been top notch, keeps my temperatures well within reason and does it while hardly making a sound at all. This cooler has met and exceeded my expatiation with its outstanding level of quality and performance. The black version also looks super cool

> 3 dayThis thing is incredible. Keeps my 3600xt around 30C at idle and around 65C while gaming at ultra settings.

> 3 dayIt does heatsink stuff. Works very well in a NR200P with a 5600x.

> 3 dayI purchased this initially for a 3600x which I exchanged for a 5600x for a SFF build (which turned into a micro ATX build).

> 3 daySystem: Gigabyte X570 I Aorus Pro, AMD Ryzen 5 5600g, 32gb G-skill Ripsaw Ram 2400Mhz, 500 gig PNY SSD and 1T WD SSD. Ram at advertised 2400Mhz and cpu over clocked at 4ghz. Heat problems right off the get start. Turned ram down to 2133 and cpu to stock 3.9 and heat problems still, exchanged out with stock heat sink and fan, turn ram back up to advertised and over clocked the cpu and no more heat problems. Gave 2 stars because the Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 chromax Black, Low-Profile CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 just would not do the job. Made from great materials. I will save for my next build which is going to be an F2+ socket, AMD 6800k down to a mini itx case. Ill update if it keeps that one cool.
