7 Best Low-Profile CPU Coolers for Mini PCs (Intel & AMD)
In today’s guide, we’re taking a look at seven of the best low-profile CPU coolers currently available. So, if you’re building a small form-factor computer and you need a small cooler, these options will work for you.
While low-profile coolers aren’t typically designed to provide high-end thermals, if you are looking to build a mini-ITX gaming PC (or any other kind of small form-factor system), due to clearance issues, a low-profile cooler might be your only option.
Fortunately, there are plenty of solid low-profile options out there for keeping your CPU cool.
In this guide, we’re going to list seven of the best low-profile CPU coolers currently available.
So, if you are building a small PC (whether for gaming or other purposes) and you need a decent CPU cooler that will fit inside of your system, one of the options below should work for you.
*NOTE: Technically, most AIO cooler blocks are low-profile. However, as radiator compatibility will vary from case-to-case, we decided to stick to low-profile air coolers in this guide. For help in choosing an AIO cooler, check out the following guides:

1. Noctua NH-L9i
The best low profile cooler
Our Rating: 9.2/10
Check Price on Amazon
Noctua has built quite the reputation when it comes to cooling hardware for computers. Their air coolers and PC fans are consistently ranked among the best in the market. And, their Noctua NH-L9i is no different.
The NH-L9i comes in at just under $45 for the brown and tan version and right at $55 for the chromax.Black version. It also measures in at 37mm tall, making it one of the shortest CPU coolers on this list. The NH-L9i comes with a 92mm fan that was designed to provide optimal cooling for lower TDP processors, as well as to operate at as low of sound levels as possible.
The NH-L9i is compatible with both Intel and AMD processors as well, but if you want to use it with an AM4 motherboard and processor, you’ll need to use this version of the cooler.
Overall, if you’re looking for a fairly affordable low-profile CPU cooler that can deliver solid cooling performance on CPUs that have TDPs of lower than 95 and operate at very quiet noise levels, then the NH-L9i is worth considering.
2. Noctua NH-L12S
The best high-end LP CPU cooler
Our Rating: 9.4/10
Check Price on Amazon
If you’re willing to spend a little bit more and you have more room in your case, the Noctua NH-L12S is one of the best-performing low profile CPU coolers on the market. The Noctua NH-L12S comes in at just under $60, making it the most expensive cooler on this list. It comes with a 88 maximum NSPR rating (Noctua’s own power rating) and a 120mm fan.
There are some downsides to the NH-L12S, though. For starters, unlike the NH-L9i, the L12S is only available in Noctua’s traditional brown and tan color scheme.
(Although, for the NH-L12S, that might not be as big of a deal as the heatsink sits on top of the fan, so the Noctua color scheme won’t be as visible.)
The other downside is that that NH-L12S is quite a bit taller than the L9i (70mm vs 37mm.)
So, if you can’t handle the Noctua color scheme, or you’re building with limited space, the NH-L12S might not be for you.
On the other hand, though, if you have a little bit more room in your system and you don’t mind the brown and tan design, and what you’re really looking for is above-average cooling from a low profile cooler, then the Noctua NH-L12S is probably the option for you.
3. Cooler Master MasterAir G100M
The best RGB LP cooler
Our Rating: 9.1/10
Check Price on Amazon
If you need a low-profile cooler, but you’re not in love with the common design that most compact coolers come with, then you might want to check out Cooler Master’s MasterAir G100M RGB low-profile CPU cooler.
With a unique design that looks more like a UFO than a traditional CPU cooler, the MasterAir G100M will likely win over a lot of users based on its aesthetics alone.
And, part of its aesthetics that will have some gamers chomping at the bits to put it in their systems is the RGB fan that it comes with. In terms of performance, though, the MasterAir G100M is no slouch. Like the NH-L9i, the MasterAir G100M has a 92mm fan. However, it is rated to work with processors that have a TDP of up to 130W.
So, according to Cooler Master, the G100M can be even be used on more power-hungry CPUs and/or for mild overclocking. The MasterAir G100M is moderately priced as well, coming in at just under $40. So, while it won’t work for an extreme budget gaming PC, it might be worth considering for a mid-range build.
The MasterAir G100M comes compatible with both Intel and AMD systems right out of the box.
The bottom line is that the Cooler Master MasterAir G100M will provide above-average cooling, has a unique design that will likely win some gamers over, and comes with RGB lights.
If the G100M’s aesthetics strike your fancy and you don’t mind paying a little extra to get them, then this cooler would be a great option for you.
4. SilverStone NT08-115XP
An ultra-cheap low profile cooler
Our Rating: 8.5/10
Check Price on Amazon
While the SilverStone NT08-115XP isn’t the greatest option overall and, in reality, there might not be a lot of use-cases for it, its all-black design and extremely affordable price tag might make it worth considering for budget gamers who have an Intel CPU and who don’t like the ugly stock CPU cooler it comes with. Its incredibly small size will also make it a nice budget-friendly option for ultra slim PC builds.
At 33mm in height, the SilverStone NT08-115XP is the 2nd shortest cooler on this list. It comes with an 80mm fan and will only work with processors that have a max TDP of 65W. So, essentially, this is about as basic of a cooler as you can get.
And, it should be noted that the NT08-115XP is not compatible with any AMD processors.
Although, for newer AMD Ryzen CPUs, the stock coolers that they come with will offer similar (or better) performance than the NT08-115XP anyway.
So, while it isn’t an ideal option, if you’re looking to replace the unattractive stock cooler that your locked Intel processor came with, or if you need a cheap replacement option for an older Intel stock cooler, or if you’re looking to build an ultra-slim PC, the NT08-115XP might be worth considering—especially since it is so affordable.
5. be quiet! BK002 Shadow Rock
Honorable Mention #1
Our Rating: 9.1/10
Check Price on Amazon
If you don’t mind paying a few more bucks and you have some more room to spare, the be quiet! BK002 Shadow Rock cooler might be an even better option for you than any of the first three options listed in this guide.
The BK002 does come in quite a bit taller (75mm) than the NH-L9i, NH-L12S, and G100M, but it can accommodate processors with TDPs as high as 130W and it has a 120mm fan on it, which means it will work well for mild overclocking.
However, as the 120mm fan will provide more cooling potential, like the NH-L12S, it also means that the entire cooler is a bit bulkier. And, if you’re building a small form-factor system, you may not have the extra room to spare. Still, though, in the grand scheme of things, the BK002 is small enough to fit inside the majority of mini-ITX cases without causing any clearance issues. Though, if you are going to choose the BK002, just note that you’ll want to choose low-profile memory and avoid choosing memory that has taller heat spreaders as the BK002 isn’t compatible with taller memory kits.
The BK002 also comes with compatibility out-of-the-box for both Intel and AMD systems.
Overall, the be quiet! BK002 Shadow Rock cooler is a great option for anyone who has a little bit more room to spare inside of their system.
6. Cryorig C1
Honorable mention #2
Our Rating: 9.1/10
Check Price on Amazon
If you are looking for higher-end cooling performance and you don’t want to use an AIO cooler, you could opt for the Cryorig C1.
The Cryorig C1 is a bigger version of the C7. It comes with a large (at least for low-profile coolers) 140mm fan and it can accommodate CPUs with TDPs up to 140W.
That means, for anyone that is looking for a low-profile air cooler that will work for mild (or greater) overclocking, the Cryorig C1 is a worthy option. However, it does come in at a premium. The Cryorig C1 costs just under $80, which is similar to what most 120mm or 140mm AIO coolers cost—but, for whatever reason, it’s actually cheaper than the C7.
Also, with the 140mm fan, the Cryorig C1 is the bulkiest low-profile cooler on this list. So, if you don’t have a lot of room to spare in your build the C1 might not work for you. And, if you do choose the C1, just note that you’ll also want to choose low-profile memory as well, as memory kits with taller heat spreaders won’t fit underneath the C1.
While the Cryorig C1 will work with both Intel and AMD-based systems, like the Cryorig C7, not all C1’s come with support for AM4-based systems out of the box.
But, again, you can just go to Cryorig’s website and request a free AM4 upgrade kit.
Ultimately, the Cryorig C1’s higher price and bulkier footprint make it a less attractive option than some of the other coolers on this list, but if you don’t mind paying the premium to get it, the C1 will offer you excellent performance.
7. Thermaltake Engine 17
Honorable mention #3
Our Rating: 8.6/10
Check Price on Amazon
Finally, we have Thermaltake’s Engine 27. The Engine 27 easily has one of the more interesting designs among all of the low-profile coolers out there. And, it’s also one of the smaller CPU coolers as well, making it a worthy option for ultra slim PC builds.
The Engine 27 doesn’t come without its flaws, though. While the Engine 27 is the most compact cooler on this list, its 70W TDP rating doesn’t make it a great option for mid-range or high-end CPUs.
Perhaps the only use case for the Engine 27 is for lower-end/extremely compact mini-ITX systems.
It is a good enough cooler to handle newer locked Intel processors (i3-10100f, i5-12400F, etc.). And, since it does have such a unique design, there may be some custom PC builders out there that will choose it purely based on that—which, of course, is completely fine.
However, you shouldn’t expect the world out of the Engine 27 and you will have to pay a premium to get it. If performance is more of a concern, the Noctua NH-L9i (moderate) or Noctua NH-L12S (superior) would be the better option (if you have the room for them).
Which Low-Profile Cooler is Right for You?
If you’re building a small form-factor PC you won’t have quite as many CPU cooler options as those who opt for larger form-factor cases. However, there are plenty of good options out there that you can use in your mini PC. The seven CPU coolers listed above are our top picks for the best low-profile CPU coolers currently on the market. So, if you do need a low-profile cooler, one of the options listed above should work for you.

Top 10 CPU coolers in July 2022
This content was written by a website visitor and has been rewarded.
A few years ago choosing a CPU cooler was pretty easy — you just had to know the TDP of your CPU and find a cooler that could dissipate the right amount of heat.
At that time, coolers with four heat pipes, capable of handling almost any processor, became practically the standard, and fans of extreme overclocking and silence bought supercoolers with six or even seven heat pipes and a couple of sections blown by separate fans.
This practice, proven over the years, failed in 2019, when processors based on the Zen 2 architecture came out, which immediately amazed users with unprecedented heating, despite the reduced process technology to 7nm and power consumption that goes far beyond the passport. The Ryzen 5 3600 and Ryzen 7 3700X heated themselves obscenely high, their temperatures easily reaching 80-90 degrees under coolers that easily cope with the previous generation octa-core Ryzen 7 2700X.
recommendations
The reason was the same reduced technical process, which usually gives a reduction in power consumption, but also causes a decrease in the area of the core, from which it is necessary to remove and dissipate an intense heat flux.
Another culprit of increased heating is the chiplet layout of the processor, when the CCD (Core Complex Die) computing cores are separated from the input / output chiplet (cIOD). As a result, the surface area of the chip with processor cores has become even smaller, and in addition it has been shifted from the center of the processor cover.
And although AMD processors traditionally used solder, its thickness and thermal conductivity left much to be desired, and enthusiasts who scalped processors and replaced solder with liquid metal, such as Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut, received a gain of almost 10 degrees.
Intel processors were also not as simple as before, and the main problem with heat dissipation and cooler selection was not only the use of thermal paste under the cover of some processor series, but also power consumption limits that simply suffocated processors. Enabling the Multi-Core Enhancements feature, which disables these limits and allows the processor to show maximum performance, increased the power consumption of, for example, a 65-watt Core i5-11400F up to 150 watts!
Well, the appearance at the end of 2021 of new processors of the Intel Alder Lake family required users not only to purchase new LGA 1700 socket motherboards, but also new cooling systems compatible with them.
In addition, the LGA 1700 socket turned out to be with an unpleasant engineering flaw, and some users experience bending of the socket, processor and motherboard, which Intel does not consider a defect.
All these nuances make you carefully choose a cooler even for a six-core processor with a nameplate heat dissipation of 65 watts, not to mention powerful eight, ten and 12-core models. But the cooling of multi-cores has recently been increasingly entrusted to non-separable liquid cooling systems, which do a good job of quickly removing heat from small chips, but are more expensive, difficult to install and require a chassis with the ability to install them.
In this blog, I take a look at Citylink’s top 10 most popular CPU coolers to find out how user preferences have changed with the release of new generations of processors that require special attention when choosing a cooler.
DeepCool GAMMAXX 400 BLUE BASIC
The most popular model is the DeepCool GAMMAXX 400 BLUE BASIC cooler, which uses four heat pipes and a 120 mm fan with blue illumination and RPM ranging from 900-15 per minute. The fan is connected via a 4-pin connector with speed control using PWM. The cooler can dissipate up to 130 watts of heat, which is more than enough to cool budget processors with six cores. The height of the cooler is 154.5 mm and it will fit into most cases, but the DeepCool GAMMAXX 400 BLUE BASIC does not have a mount for the new LGA 1700 socket. The main advantage of this cooler is its low price.
DeepCool GAMMAXX 300 FURY
DeepCool GAMMAXX 300 FURY cooler high speed fan with a diameter of 92 mm with a hydrodynamic bearing. The fan rotates from 900 — 1800 rpm and is connected via a 4-pin connector with PWM control and has a blue backlight. DeepCool GAMMAXX 300 FURY does not support the LGA 1700 socket.
DeepCool REDHAT
The third place is also taken by a model from DeepCool — the legendary cooler DeepCool REDHAT or «Red Hat», which appeared on the market in 2015. The cooler is very large and heavy, its height reaches 168 mm, and its weight is 1079 grams, due to which a huge dispersion area is achieved, but it will not fit into any case. The cooler can dissipate up to 250 watts of heat, which is dissipated by a 140 mm PWM controlled fan with a hydrodynamic bearing and a speed of 300 to 1400 per minute. DeepCool REDHAT does not have mounts for the LGA 1700 socket.
DeepCool ICE EDGE MINI FS V2.0
In fourth place we have a compact baby DeepCool ICE EDGE MINI FS V2.0 with two heat pipes and a fan with a diameter of 80 mm. The cooler is only 119 mm high and will fit into almost any case, while dissipating 100 watts of heat. DeepCool ICE EDGE MINI FS V2.0 does not support the LGA 1700 socket, but the main advantage of this cooler is its low price, due to which ordinary coolers without heat pipes become its competitors.
Due to the excellent price-performance ratio, I often install it to my friends and acquaintances in budget assemblies with little heat dissipation, and I also bought this model in my second PC with a Core i5-3570 processor.
Zalman CNPS10X Performa+
Zalman CNPS10X Performa+ is another long-liver on the market, released almost 10 years ago and received a plus modification in 2015. Despite its age, its performance is excellent in 2022, because it can remove up to 230 watts of heat from the processor. The secret of the Zalman CNPS10X Performa+ is simple — five heat pipes, a massive copper base for even heat dissipation and a powerful PWM fan with RPMs of 900 to 2000 per minute. This cooler works in my PC, keeping the Ryzen 5 1600 cool when overclocked to 4000 MHz and keeping it from getting above 65 degrees in stress tests. Unfortunately, Zalman CNPS10X Performa+ does not support the LGA 1700 socket.
DeepCool NEPTWIN V2
DeepCool NEPTWIN V2 is a fairly efficient cooler from DeepCool with six heat pipes, capable of removing 150 watts of heat from the processor.
The cooler is 159mm high and the heatsink is divided into two sections, each with its own fan. Fans with fluid dynamic bearings and PWM rotate from 900 — 1500 rpm, but the DeepCool NEPTWIN V2 does not have mounts for the LGA 1700 socket.
DeepCool THETA 31 PWM
DeepCool THETA 31 PWM is a cooler of classical design, without heat pipes, but due to a copper core and a fan with a diameter of 100 mm5 it is able to dissipate the heat. The PWM fan rotates at 900 to 2400 rpm. DeepCool THETA 31 PWM does not support the LGA 1700 socket and its purpose is budget builds with cold processors, but the price is high, which makes DeepCool ICE EDGE MINI FS V2.0 a more practical choice.
Zalman CNPS5X Performa
Zalman CNPS5X Performa is a compact cooler with a 92mm fan and three direct contact heat pipes. Due to the high fan speed, 1400 — 2800 per minute, the cooler is able to remove 150 watts of heat.
The height of the cooler is 134 mm, the fan is controlled by PWM, but there is no support for the LGA 1700 socket.
DeepCool GAMMAXX S40
DeepCool coolers have become the most popular among users and we have model 9 in ninth place0011 DeepCool GAMMAXX S40 , mid-range cooler with four heat pipes and a 120 mm fan, capable of dissipating 130 watts of heat. The 120mm PWM fan spins at 900 — 1600rpm, the heatsink itself is quite compact and only 143mm high, but the downside is the lack of support for the LGA 1700 socket and the high price.
Zalman CNPS10X Optima
The tenth most popular cooler among users Zalman CNPS10X Optima capable of dissipating 160 watts of heat from the processor. The cooler has four direct-contact heat pipes, a 120 mm PWM hydrodynamic fan with a speed of 1000 — 1700 per minute and is 152 mm high. Zalman CNPS10X Optima does not support the LGA 1700 socket, and against the background of similar solutions from DeepCool, the cooler is clearly overrated.
