Intel i3/i5/i7 LGA115x CPU Heatsink and Fan E97379-003 For Desktop

Good

Intel simple not for O/C

My old fan had a serious noise issue and I replaced it with this one and it went from being so loud & annoying I could barely play a game to being almost silentTotally recommend this fan as a replacement for the exact same fan

This was all my fault. The fan came in buy was a little small. I still got it working but make sure you get the proper size. Have no issues.

Easy installation, perfect fit (if you know what you are doing). Very quiet compared to ~12 year-old original fan.

The fan on my parents computer stopped working after 11 years. I was told they smelled something burning and the computer errored with CPU fan error. Yeah.... I know....Wasn't sure if the system was beyond repair but I figure I try replacing the fan to see what happens. The price for this replacement made the return on investment worth it. After pulling off the old fan, cleaning off the old thermal grease, and replacing with this one..... computer booted up!!! Amazing!Things are working great and hopefully this will last another 11 years!

Somehow managed to break the plastic on my old i5 cooler and this was the exact OEM replacement. Funny enough it came in an intel i3-9100 processor box of course without the CPU. Brand new, no problems and was exactly what I needed.

If you're going to be buying these fans, here's what you'll receive:-2 of the pictured fans, rated at 12V 0.6A.-1 oddball fan, rated at 12V 0.18A.-Dry thermal paste with cardboard particles in it (because they are stored open to air in a cardboard box) on all three.The two correct fans both produce bearing noise. One produces small, intermittent noise while the other one is constant and very loud. The two cooler types use different aluminum design between diameters and cuts/fin count. The interesting thing is that the heat sync I wasn't supposed to receive is actually the best one (for noise) lol. It makes no noise and runs very well, but I can't imagine a 0.18A fan will compete very well against a 0.6A fan in terms of air movement... So I guess it's still a loss.If you are using these to cool CPUs you may need to do some rigging to get them to run quiet or even at all—one of the small boxes the heat syncs came in was crushed even though the larger amazon box they all came in was completely fine.Edit: ~24 hours laterThe fans have been running for almost an entire 24 hours. Somehow the bearing noise has disappeared. They all run good consistently now—with zero unusual noise. I guess they needed a break-in period. I did have to place a tiny dot of RTV on the oddball's aluminum because it wasn't super snug in its holder which caused a rattling sound, but now it's fine. I would give this a 5 star if they had sent me all the correct fans, but oh well. Even with the oddball fan, it still works! I will say that I still stand behind wiping off the old dried up compound and replacing it with new. You'll know just by looking at the new thermal paste that the old paste that it comes with is garbage.
