Seems to work!

I hesitated but ordered and installed anyway (installed this morning). My Evo has been running between 46 and 51 at any point during my workday. Until I hit 36. I don't do anything else and work less. But it seems to be doing its job! Installation went smoothly after figuring out where to get instructions. Installation time was less than 30 minutes (first time). But I really like how the heatsink can be tilted in any direction. He also looks beautiful. I'm glad I got it.

IT WORKS! at Computers & Accessories

with motherboard heatsink my Corsair mp600 heated up to 70°C and then thermally throttled for 5 seconds in a Crystaldiskmark test. I had a terrible performance because of the temps. With this cooler my idle was 40 degrees and after two consecutive tests it rose to 43 degrees and quickly dropped back down. the thing works highly recommended

It cools my M2 SSD at least 10 (F) degrees

My desktop is in my living room (no air conditioning) so my M2 SSD quickly got warm even with the heatsink attached. I had to find something to deal with the intense heat and it did. The drive starts out colder than my other drives, but where I reached 118 degrees, it's now reaching 106 degrees. It's also easy to install, just look at the schematics, don't apply too much thermal paste and you'll notice an improvement.

Improved Fan and Cooling Stability

I have two Samsung 1TB 970 EVOs in my home server. With other NVME heatsinks, they would still overheat and thermally clog when transferring large files. After installing Frostbit coolers, NVME drives run much cooler. Transferring a 14GB file only increased the temperature by a few degrees!

FIRST 72 HOURS: Replaced my iStorm cooler with built in 20mm fan with this one on my Samsung 970 1TB Evo Plus. Then he began to monitor the temperature of the disk. The ambient temperature in the room is 23 °C. Mid-tower case with 4 fans, 2 for intake and 2 for exhaust. Perform normal desktop office work like email, web surfing, Word, PDF, etc. Temperature range 32°C to 35°C. If you play Steam games for a few hours, it fluctuates between 36 ° C and 38 ° C. As a disk-intensive test, I…

Pros

  • Legacy model

We tested 14 heatsinks as requested by our YouTubers to help you save money. The two best so far are Acidalie 4 Pipe and Jeyi Aluminum FinsCold iGlacier8. I prefer acidalia. Tests on Gigabyte TRX40 Designare and Supermicro Dual M.2 NVMe adapters. Not scientific. We had to change the tests we started as "We tested" according to the questions and the heatsink size. We started looking for M.2 NVMe PCIe heatsinks for dual M.2 NVMe adapters and possibly quad M.2 NVMe adapters that didn't have…
