Vetroo L5 Black CPU Air Cooler: Low Profile Design for AMD Ryzen AM4/Intel LGA1200 115X – Advanced Cooling with 5 Heatpipes and 120mm Quiet PWM Fan Review

When the package arrived, I already had the feeling that everything was loose in the box. The product description says an accessory bag, but my box only had a cooler, screws, and the like. That was my first problem. My second problem was that the manual that was supposed to work was also missing. My third issue you can see in the picture is that it came used as I paid for a new one. It has some thermal paste from a previous use. My final issue was that when I was looking for screws to install…

This cooler is perfect for budget models or small, low profile computers. This is a downdraft cooler with 5 heat pipes in direct contact with the CPU with a 12 LED ARGB fan. The heatpipes and the base are carefully sanded. I bought this to replace my cooler. This is a pretty cheap cooler. This is good when you need something unobtrusive or are short on space. The pace is great and it's doing a good job. A nice combination of copper heatpipes with an aluminum heatsink. Enough free space for RAM.

I followed the instructions that came with it to set up the heatsink for use with an older socket 1150 motherboard, after installation I found that the Coldplate wasn't even close to making contact with the CPU heat spreader. Sending it back as it's practically unusable.

Product works well, Ryzen 5 5600x dropped almost 25 degrees at full load in combination with Kryonaut thermal paste. Installation was easy, went smoothly and looks great on my system. The color is well applied, the RGB works as expected. After about 1 month of ownership, the fan started making noise, although initially it was absolutely silent. Looks simple enough to be replaced with any 120mm fan, so at this price point it's forgivable. Also, the mounting system of this cooler is a bit…

Tried this on two different boards where the CPU power supply was in close proximity to the heatsink and didn't find it practical to connect the power and then insert a CPU cooler! I have small hands so I can imagine what slightly larger hands would look like. Must go back but to be fair make sure your motherboard CPU power isn't anywhere near this big cooler!

Looks great, RBG works well with aura sync, it cools my little i5 11500 very well, I've never seen it go over 60C even when streaming went. Yes, I don't have a graphics card, but I don't watch video games. without it is fine. Only thing is this fan is noisy and it sounds like dirt or something got into the bearings. it shakes like it's unbalanced and noisy at ALL RPMs. I'll be replacing it with an Arctic P12 soon, but I'm very disappointed with the fan. The heatsink and everything was pretty…

The Vetroo L5 is a BUDGET low profile CPU cooler that comes VERY close to being the BEST low profile cooler on the market. Unfortunately, it has ONE SERIOUS flaw that really hurt me - the installation. This process is far from perfect and as a reviewer I'm the first to tell you that this is also a very frustrating process. I reinstall all the coolers I test multiple times to make sure the results are accurate, and the fact that I have to remove the motherboard from the dyno to access the…
