This is about the best heatsink you can buy for the money. It is a passive heatsink, meaning no fan connection or extra noise. Nets me a 29C idle temp on Samsung 990 Evo Plus 1TB drive.It is a bulky heatsink and will require some space. The main thing is to be sure your video card and CPU cooler have enough room in between for this heatsink.Another item worth mentioning is the weight of this heatsink. It made me a bit nervous at first and after mounting the heatsink I had to go back in and tighten it a little more. It is also useful to put a bit of cushioning material between the bottom part of heatsink that will be resting against your mainboard. I personally used 3M Temflex Rubber Splicing Tape 2155. It insulates and also you can cut into small pieces to build your own cushion which will protect your mainboard and also give your heatsink something to rest against offering a more solid mounting point.Great little heatsink though and you will not get better cooling at this price. The only other way you can step up your cooling game is to get the model of this with a fan.

A bit loose but it gets the job done without worry of overheating.

I water cool my PC and due to where the Gen 5 NVME is located, I could not use the factory cooling on the motherboard as the waterblock on my graphics card was making it unable to fit due to it's size, so I used a billet aluminum EKWB heatsink on the M.2 drive. Eventually my PC started crashing multiple times a day with me unable to figure out why, that is until I did figure it out.The small heat sink I had added to the M.2 was insanely insufficient, and it was overheating horribly, we're talking over 75°C. So I bought this heat sink and a NVME relocation/extension kit to move the M.2 to a spot where I could put this massive heat sink on it. Sadly the relocation kit is only Gen 4 PCIE technology, so I lost more than half of my speeds, but that isn't the heat sink's fault. What is the heat sink's though, is the awesome passive cooling I now have. My peak temperatures went from 75°C+ to a cool 45°C (And that 45°C was from stress testing so not even every day use kind of temps). Normal operating temps are now around 33°C average instead of the 60°C average temp I would get before with a table fan blasting full speed into the side of my open PC case I had to do before this came.I am sure the temperatures would be higher if the M.2 was running at gen 5 speeds, but I highly doubt it would be much higher, not to mention 45°C is well within healthy operating temperatures, so its a huge win no matter how you look at it.If you're running a toasty 5th gen NVME and have the space for this heat sink, I highly recommend getting it! The installation was super easy and due to it being adjustable it should easily fit whether you have a single sided or double sided PCB M.2!By far my best purchase of 2025 so far!

Somewhat exceeded my expectations, this SSD cooler is well built. It's keeping my SSD temps down considerably and looks good doing it. Only two issues I have are the included thermal pads are a bit tool far to one side to completely cover the last memory chip on the SDD circuit board but with the SSDs included graphene heat dissipation sticker it shouldn't affect the performance much if any. Also, there are no lock washers or teeth on the screws that hold the bottom plate on. This could become a potential issue as if the screws came loose it could allow the bottom metal plate to loosen and possibly contact components on the motherboard beneath.On my motherboard there are several small components just the SDD so making sure the bottom plate don't drop and contact them is a concern. I used some blue Locktight and made sure the screws were torqued properly so I should never have an issue but it's something to be aware of.Other than that, great product especially for how little it cost.

It works as intended, lowers my temps even more than the heatsinks on my motherboard, fit next to my graphics card without problems, and was easy to install.

What I like:* Well made and packaged.* Thin over thick fins. 32 thin fins for large aluminum surface area to facilitate heat dissipation.* Thick heat pipe better heat transfer than thin or no heat pipe at all.What I don't like:* Non-copper heat pipe. Copper: conducts better if near chip. Aluminum dissipates better at fin. But for $...* Side screw design could loosen contact over time. Screws from bottom up screw design would be best for fin to chip contact.* You loose PCI slot due to height but NBD if using board graphics, ATX mobo and aware..* Single pipe. Like multi-pipe "Pro" design better.Recommendation:* Repeat: Don't use "black" insulator spacer on final install per instructions.* Apply fore-finger/thumb pressure top-to-bottom over chip and tighten screws, especially if only one single sided chip SSD design.* Carefully peal-off paper SSD label on chips to facilitate heat transfer (avoid label insulation effect).* Nit Point. Best I can tell, pipe bend should point to floor for tower cases to facilitate heat transfer in pipe.* Stock thermal pads not bad. Consider Arctic TP-3 ultra thin thermal pad available on Amazon.

Idle temperature went from 51c to 38c. It was really easy to install and looks great in the rig. I highly recommend this heat sink.

Had that best selling aluminum heat sink on my Samsung 2GB 990 Evo. It worked ok on gen 3 ssd’s, but struggled with some temps that were shortening the evo’s life. It’s now 15°C cooler. That deserves a Kool-Aid man “Oh Yeah”, (dang gotta repair my wall again). And it’s not overkill like some review say. Those gen 4 m.2 ssd’s have some very high hotspots.

Ayudó mucho a bajar y mantener la temperatura de mi SSD, por lo que la vida útil mejora. Eso sí, es para una pc de escritorio y no para laptop, por si quedara duda.

Controla bastante bien la temperatura, para las temperaturas del norte del país creo que funciona bien, no sobrepasa los 42 grados usando herramientas de edicion, bajo casi 10 grados la temperatura

Yo se lo instalé a un WD S750 el cuál con sólo encender el equipo llegaba a los 50° y al trabajar cualquier cosa subía de los 60°, ahora con ese disipador haga lo que haga no sube más de 36°. Ampliamente recomendable.

Bajo la temperatura de mi m.2, en full load llegaba a 68⁰c, excelente precio igual. Ahora en full lo máximo que llega es a a 43⁰c y eso que la gráfica le queda a 3mm
