what cooler would you recommend for 9900k, that is 57mm or shorter?

You can always check out heatsinks from Noctua, BeQuiet, Silverstone, Coolermaster and Thermalright.
OK, well to be honest I was kind of thinking not everyone will like the same styles. Besides, not every retailer web site have the same brand names. So, in some ways that list is still a short cut.I mean using that logic, he can always check out ones that are made of metal and have fans on them.
WHICH one is what he is after.
which case are you using?what cooler would you recommend for 9900k, that is 57mm or shorter?
The silverstone DS380 https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=452which case are you using?
I'm assuming the height restriction is due to the drive cage partially sitting over the CPU area.The silverstone DS380 https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=452
Our CPU cooler of choice is the Noctua NH-U12P, but it turned out to be too deep. The Panther is just 50 mm thick and barely fit in the available space.....
As long as it doesn’t interfere with the drive cage, a taller heatsink can be employed. There was 27 mm available above the Panther, making the total clearance approximately 187 mm.
OMG I can't believe I ordered the Thermalright AXP-90i (for Intel) and only just realized now I could have chosen one with a 120mm fan. Sheesh. (By the way, I can't review it until I build my Rocket Lake computer. Besides, the tracking number shows it just entered the country. I was going to use a Nexus 92mm fan I have in a box for it though, not the stock fan. Oops, just saw the price, maybe that's why.) EDIT: Another weird oops, I just realized I had some Nexus accessories in a box, not a fan).It's 58mm, but might work http://thermalright.com/product/axp-100/ (also available in copper). If you can find a thinner fan maybe that'll get you the extra mm.
I have two AXP-90Rs running, it's nice (I think it's even better on Intel, where you can rotate the heatsink so you can point the exhaust), but if you have the height I'd get something bigger. I couldn't find AXP-90 except on Aliexpress, but it seems like AXP-100 is more available, gotta look around for a good price though (eBay seems to be the place right now).OMG I can't believe I ordered the Thermalright AXP-90i (for Intel) and only just realized now I could have chosen one with a 120mm fan.

When I saw the Coolermaster Gemini S5 was not available on any web site I checked, I considered the Noctua NH-L9i, be quiet! Shadow Rock LP, SilverStone Argon AR06 and SilverStone NT06-PRO. This is because I like heatsinks that are close to the motherboard in case I move the computer and accidentally drop it. How I chose the Thermalright AXP-90i I guess was just a human decision. Sometimes you feel like a Russian I guess... (I mean when they embraced democracy and couldn't deal with all the choices they had like various tooth paste, tooth brushes etc.) There was however a review linked to Youtube on this site saying the Thermalright model was good.I have two AXP-90Rs running, it's nice (I think it's even better on Intel, where you can rotate the heatsink so you can point the exhaust), but if you have the height I'd get something bigger.

nice thread jacking...It took a little over a month before my Thermalright AXP-90i arrived and of course it's not tested yet as the Rocket Lake CPU is not officially launched. It was ordered from Cloudfan Store on Aliexpress. View attachment 339250View attachment 339252View attachment 339253
that no the op, they havent replied since Feb...Is it a thread jack? Seems on topic to me.
No because I just counted the number of days it took for my cooler to arrive from the order date, it took 30 days.nice thread jacking...
