Fantastic cooler, I use on an i7 12700KF and never exceed temps of 140F, even when gaming heavily and multi tasking.

easy to install

This works rlly good and I got it open box and it had everything but only thing they should improve is mount but other than that I’d 🔥

If you need a great, basic cooler for your Intel chip that’s slightly better than the default cooler, look no further! Make sure you check to ensure your motherboard/processor are < 95W (so most of the relevant intel chips) and are one of the compatible sockets (again, most recent sockets) – once you do that, this CPU cooler is easy to install (install the backplate then screw in the 4 screws and plug in the fan header. Done.
Couple of quick notes – first, this does use a backplate (unlike the push-pin based default included cooler) which means you’ll need to access the back of your motherboard. Not an issue if you’re installing a new motherboard in a new case, but if you’re replacing an existing cooler in a complete build, you may have to remove the motherboard if you don’t have access to the back of the board in the case. I actually like this as the install is much more secure that the push pins – and you know you have the right tension – but it is something to be aware of.
Second, this does have pre-applied thermal paste which makes it easy to use. The thermal paste seems to be of reasonable quality and is well applied – I used it as is for the initial install, but ended up moving the chip to new board and having to use my own. Expected and no issues – but if you’re looking for a bit more performance, you might want to think about changing the paste. If you’re running stock clocks and not running at max all the time, the included paste should be just fine.
Third and final consideration – this is not a cooler for overclockers. It can probably handle a minimal overclock – but it’s really designed to be cool and reasonably quiet at stock settings, voltages and the like and it does well at that.
With those considerations out of the way, if you have a compatible chip and don’t mind the above caveats, this is a great cooler and highly recommend!

I bought this for the cheapest stream PC out of old parts my siblings and I had laying around. Well it so happens to be the only thing we didn’t have was a cooler with the appropriate bracketry for the LGA 1155 socket. So I resorted for for this unit! For under $15 it keeps an overclocked I7 3770K at 4.4ghz 1.2 volts under 95C in 29C/90F ambient temps on a 30 minute Cinebench R23 run.
It does exactly everything we need but now the CPU is now too slow for the load we’re throwing at it LOL!
Not the coolers fault at all in that case and of course is the reason I threw a mild overclock at it.
Now what I don’t like is how it has a 3 pin fan connector. The ASRock P67 Extreme does not have a way to control DC powered fans. So the fans are on full blast in the case. Spins around 2200 RPM and isn’t great to be next to. Thankfully in my case I am using Windows remote desktop and running headless so the PC can be on the common area. Keeps my room nice and quiet!
The mounting bracket is kind of a pain in the arse but now that I think about it, if you have a case that has an opening on the back of the motherboard tray, you can try setting up a pillow or small box behind the pc and laying it down. I did it with the PC standing upwards which wasn’t enjoyable.
Nonetheless for the money, I am happy and the PC stays cool during 6 plus hour streams.

I used the Thermaltake Gravity i3 to replace the stock cooler in my Dell Optiplex, which has an Intel i5 12500 chip. Two things I noticed right away — compared to the Dell cooler, the Thermaltake is larger, both wider and taller, and has a larger fan. It screwed in to the existing holes and is a direct replacement, so it was super easy to install. Mostly I wanted something quieter which wouldn’t present any challenges inside the small Optiplex case, so I tried this out and was pleasantly surprised that not only is it noticeably quieter to my ears while under heavy CPU load, it lowered peak CPU temps from 93 to 83 degrees C while running a Cinebench test. Overall, good enough for the cost.

This is a fantastic low profile cooler. I needed a low profile cooler to accommodate a vent on my case and this one works great! The only thing I don’t like is the backing plate for the cooler attaches to the back of the Mobo with 2 sided tape. If you never have to remove the cooler then that is fine. But say the Motherboard fails (as I have had happen before) when you go to reattach it will be a little bit of a challenge. But that aside (and I realize it is not a big issue), it is great and I am very happy with it.

Used it to keep my vintage PC running, does its job and keeps the CPU cool.

I bought this Thermaltake Gravity heatsink fan for my CPU long ago for my LGA 1155 motherboard, but recently needed to buy another one for my other LGA 1155 motherboard. The Thermaltake heatsink fan works good. Definitely quiet. It replaces my other heatsink fan(Intel) that uses those plastic knobs that requires turning counter-clockwise followed by forcibly pulling up those knobs to remove the heatsink fan from the motherboard. Well, in my case, those knobs(or whatever they’re called) got stuck, likely due to wear-and-tear and age, and I almost physically broke my motherboard in the process of removing that Intel heatsink fan. With this Thermaltake heatsink fan, I don’t have to worry about using any physical pulling force because it uses plain screws to keep the heatsink fan in place on the motherboard. The only negative about this heatsink fan is that you need access to the other side of the motherboard to secure it in place using the plate it comes with for reinforcing the heatsink fan to the motherboard. I prefer to use a screwdriver to secure and to unsecure the heatsink fan, so this product is a good fit for my needs. I have a second Thermaltake Gravity arriving soon to replace a broken heatsink fan(also Intel) on my other LGA 1155 motherboard, which broke because it got so stuck(despite properly turning counter-clockwise and pulling up each knob) that I had to physically to rip it off my motherboard with so much force that the plastic knobs shattered, thus needing to replace it. I have expectations that the Thermaltake Gravity(both the one I’m currently using and the one that is arriving soon) will last much longer than my previous heatsink fan(Intel), and I don’t think I will be disappointed.

First, it have thermal paste pre-installed, which makes installation easy. I’ve us a VR headset for iRacing so I haven’t noticed any noise, but I wouldn’t with headphones. The CPU runs very cool even after a lot of gaming, I don’t think I’ve seen it over 50 degrees Celsius.
