Switched to this in a Lian Li A4-H2O case after my AIO pump died. It's able to cool around 100 watts at 85 degrees Celsius (I do have 2 exhaust fans in the case though). Fan noise is not bad at all.

I recently upgraded my small form factor build with the ID-COOLING IS-55 ARGB White CPU cooler, and it has exceeded my expectations in both performance and design. Here's my detailed review:Design and CompatibilityThe IS-55’s low-profile design (only 57mm in height) is perfect for compact systems where space is a premium. It fits seamlessly into my ITX case, and the white finish adds a clean, modern look. The cooler is compatible with a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets, including Intel’s LGA1700, 1200, and 115x, and AMD’s AM4 and AM5, which adds to its versatility. If you're working with a small build, this cooler is an excellent choice.Cooling PerformanceThe IS-55 features five heat pipes and a 120mm PWM fan that delivers efficient heat dissipation, ensuring my CPU remains cool even under moderate load. While it's not designed for extreme overclocking, it easily handles daily tasks and moderate gaming or workload without any temperature spikes. It supports a maximum TDP of 125W, which is more than enough for most users.ARGB LightingOne of the standout features is the customizable ARGB lighting. The cooler’s lighting is vibrant and can be synchronized with your motherboard via a 5V 3-pin connector. This makes it easy to match the cooler’s lighting effects with the rest of your build, adding a stylish touch to your system. The ARGB looks especially good in darker cases, where the lighting can shine through more brightly.Installation and NoiseInstallation was a breeze. The mounting system is secure and straightforward, and it comes with clear instructions. The fan operates quietly, even under load, which is great if you value a quieter build. It’s perfect for users who want performance without the added noise.ConclusionOverall, the ID-COOLING IS-55 ARGB White CPU cooler is an excellent choice for anyone building a compact system. It offers solid cooling performance, easy installation, and an aesthetic touch with its ARGB lighting. Whether you're building a small HTPC or a high-performance SFF PC, this cooler offers a great balance of functionality and style. Highly recommended!

I'm shocked how good this thing is at cooling my 9800X3D.I put a -30 PBO offset on my CPU, and it barely goes above 65C in games. Exceeded my expectations by a lot. Incredible value.

This works quite well, but it's time for me to vent. As I was reading the instructions, it states to remove the 15 mm fan for the AMD CPU and use the long screws to secure the 25 mm fan. My question is what? I looked in the box and the parts I scattered around, there was no 25 mm fan, the longer screws were there but no larger fan. Lucky for me I had purchased a 120 x 25 mm fan, a box of three about a couple of weeks earlier, from the same manufacture ID, and only used two of them. So I grabbed the fan I didn't use earlier and installed it. The IS-15 cooler works well and is extremely quiet, with my larger ID fan, that was not included. The smaller included fan was to be used for Intel CPU. I looked over the Amazon Description, there was no mentioned of requiring a different fan for AMD, which is not included in the box. It just states a 120 x 15 mm fan. I have a similar grip with the manufacture, I purchased another ID cooler, which I will review soon. ID's Products are good, but their communication is poor.

Bought this a while ago and after almost a year of daily use it's still working perfectly and quiet and keeping my cpu cool. Noise is a big concern for me so for me to get temps at the max of 70c playing something like cyberpunk cranked to max in a tiny ITX case like mine, it's satisfying that it's only audible if I lean in close, and then I'm hearing my other fans.

I bought a refurbished Dell Optiplex 7060 SFF tower with an Intel i7 8700 cpu. I pulled the OEM Dell Cooler and replaced the thermal paste, but HW Monitor consistently showed it hitting 100C with Cenebench testing. After much searching, YouTubing, etc I settled on the ID Cooling IS-55. I was still concerned that it wouldn't fit my setup. Thankfully it fits like a dream, clears the RAM and dropped the max temp down to 85C with intensive testing. I'm not a big gamer, so this should do the job well. I pulled up a YT video, ran a DVD, and itunes music while running some other software and core temps stayed under 45C, so it's all good.

BUT when isee end user YouTube videos of this thing actually cooling more so than Liquid cooling systems, i Had to Have it for my next build, need to buy two more for family members systems just to do it.. The numbers don’t lie, this thing can keep your CPU cooler, much cooler..UPDATE- Grandson’s gets Poppi’s old system rebuilt into a new case..Intel 6600k underneath this is55 cooler, and the video reviews on uTube were correct, it does outperform liquid cooling.. if it’s installed correctly that is 👍idle temps in the mid 20’s and full load stress never tops 51-53°C no matter what we throw at it.. must have Low profile Ram or at max 33mm to hang heatsink over memory, we didn’t so over the caps on motherboard it went, and that didn’t work with the case fan so we swapped is55 fan for 25mm case fan, done.. actually looks good and performs great, notice HDD on display back wall, nice touch..

I have this in a sg13bq. Running a ryzen 5900x at 60w 45A TDC 65A EDC. It is able to keep it at 65C in 27C ambient. Cinebench scores around 14000. Asrock b550m itx/ac motherboard is compatible with vrm heatsink height. I have corsair vengence 32gb. It did not fit with my memory so I flipped it so it was over my vrm heatsink. The only way this would fit on the memory side is with memory without a heat sink. Wraith stealth was running 50W at 65C where I had 65C thermal limiting the performance. It was hitting cinebench scores of 7800.The configuration I have with this case sg13bq, is intake 120mm, I am using p12 slim from arctic reversed and exhausting air into the psu. my psu is facing downward towards the cooler.If you want to use another slim 15mm fan like noctua or arctic, you need to get another screw set. I am using "Hillman 3-mm 0.5 x 20-mm Phillips-Drive Machine Screws" Item #755504 Model #127111 and I am using "Hillman 3-mm x 0.5 Zinc-plated Steel Hex Nut " Item #755591 Model #127081 as a spacer or Danco 10-Pack 1/2 Rubber Washer Model #88569 would do. I purchased from Lowes. Any taller than 20mm, and it will not fit in the sg13. The original screw set for 15mm fan is too short by 2mm. Its because the fan they provide has screw holes that are shorter than the standard 15mm fan.The good thing though, is the 25mm fan mounting set is compatible with 25mm fans. It was able to mount my actic P12 120mm and my arctic F12 120mm no problem. If it doesnt work for you, then just get a taller screw set. They are standard 3mm diameter x .5 thread pitch screws. I would assume 3mx.5x28mm or 3mx.5x30mm should work and use nuts as spacers if needed.The fan they provided is sufficent in performance, but louder than any other slim fan I have used. Quieter than the wraith stealth though. Wraith stealth had an annoying ticking sound. Also, the fan they provide has a bit of turbulance, even with the rubber insulation.Mounting system was similar to noctua. If you know how to mount noctua, it will be the same experience. I am iffy on the mounting quality compared to noctua. Noctua is top notch in quality. I didn't feel too refined to me. I feel like it was just off the line and stuck in the box. But only time will tell how well it stands up.Heatsink quality is really good. Nice finish, and very performant. If you need 57mm low height, pick this. Nothing beats it for the size except water cooling.
