"At stock settings, we can’t see a reason to buy the Ryzen OC bracket. The AMD Ryzen 3000 chips run cool enough not to need any further help, and you won’t gain any added performance because of the power limit. Once you enable PBO and lift all the power limit rules, there is a small performance gain that can be had, though it is fairly minor at best."

Its funny the tagline would indicate they didn't like it but in reality they thought at $30 it was a good deal.

"At $30, the Ryzen OC Bracket costs about as much as two tubes of quality thermal paste. It’s dead-easy to install, practically risk-free, and offers the extra performance to help a small, but passionate crowd of CPU enthusiasts like us. "

The article repeatedly says it's $30, and then has an ad for the product at $38.17 (as of the time I read it yesterday, and also just now) on Newegg. I dunno, it seems like a barely-useful product for most people.
