SilverStone Technology Low Profile 95W or More AMD Socket AM2/AM3/AM4/FM1/FM2 CPU Cooler Only 54mm Tall Cooling (RL-KR01)

This hooked up easily and has been working well!

My wraith Stealth couldn't seem to keep idle temp below 70 for ryzen 7 5800x.This cooler keeps it around 40-50. It's a bit noisy but that doesn't bother me. Performs well.Easy to mount. Fits good.

Have this cooler in my Silverstone small form-factor case and it helps significantly.Have it on top of a Ryzen 9 5950x. I only run that chip in 65 watt power mode but I am confident it would be able to handle it if I ran it a little higher

Better than stock heatsink on cheap Ryzen Cpus, fan a little loud but seems to be of good quality

Mounted this heatsink and fan on an FM2+ Gigabyte GA-F2A88XN-WIFI ITX with an A10-6800k cpu at 74c max heat and comparing to the stock AMD cooler with this cooler in a single stress test runs at 10c below the stock cooler. In a double 30min stress test this cooler runs 9c below the stock cooler. It is a little quieter than the stock cooler, but not as quiet as the new AMD coolers for the Ryzen 5 cpus. I was hoping this cooler would be a little more quit than it is, but at least when she is working hard I do not hear chatter like I do with the stock cooler.Update:I mounted an 80x80x25mm AVC hydraulic bearing fan, with a little modification to get the clips to clip in, on the top of this heat sync using the fan to pull the heat out rather than blow air in and the cpu (A10 6900k) runs in a double heat cpu test at 48/49c and is a little quieter (24 to 35 db) than the stock SilverStone fan. But, not as quiet as I would like it to be. Does anyone know of an almost silent fan in the 80x80mm size, silent like the new AMD fans for the 5600g cpu? Thank you.

I actually bought the SilverStone Technology Low Profile 95W or More AMD Socket AM2/AM3/AM4/FM1/FM2 CPU Cooler Only 54mm Tall Cooling (RL-KR01) to bail out a low-end build that was not coming together as I'd hoped. For the first time in many years, I bought a miniITX board. The idea was to put an R5 3400G on it, and stick it in a Cooler Master Elite 110 RC-110-KKN2 case. Well, the PSU interfered with the airflow for the Wraith Spire OEM cooler. So, if that's the problem, you just get a shorter heatsink, right?I'm no stranger to low-profile heatsinks, as I've build 1U and 2U solutions before. And of course those cooling solutions are going to sound like hairdryers or jet engines. Surely a cooler over 2 inches tall, with heatpipes, and an 80mm fan would be quiet, right? Um... no. The RL-KR01 looks like a quality component, as there weren't any material or workmanship defects on mine. The cooler secures to the AM4 "ear" mount, which is a little less disconcerting than the amount of force you have to flex the board with to use 4-hole mounting. The cooler ships with a single-use dispenser of thermal paste (yay! no TIM pad).At ~2.1", the cooler isn't really that much shorter than the OEM cooler, but it did leave enough space between it and the PSU to where I felt at ease. The problem, though, was evident at boot up. It wasn't LOUD, but it was "loud-ish". Under load, it got louder still. Considering the PC was meant to blend into the background, I realized I'd made a mistake. Not confident that I'd be able to get a cooler low-profile cooler, I decided to revert to the OEM cooler, and just go with a SFX PSU.Despite all of that, I'm not saying the SilverStone Technology RL-KR01 is bad. I also don't have reason to believe that the 95W TDP rating is incorrect, but I do think you will have a REALLY loud fan with this cooler. If your computer room/office sounds a little like an airfield anyway, you may be fine with that. However, it's not really appropriate for quiet builds. I was using an R5 3400G at low loads... imagine what it'd sound like with a 95W CPU :o

I was looking for a low profile high performance cooler and this one does the job excellently. The cooler is on the louder side but considering it was for a server that is already quite noisy this really wasn't an issue for me. Works great where space is limited and temps are high.

Got the cooler to replace one that I stole from my old rig since my older computer wasn’t a high wattage this cooler is adequate and cooling it. It came with thermal paste in the box, but not pre-applied. my only suggestion for improving on this cooler even though this is an older model if you buy this and have the space I recommend, putting in a higher air pressure fan on it something that can push more air through will be helpful. It may improve performance on the cooler.
