Additional Comments:
I bought this to install on a clients computer and like the many other hundreds of heatsinks and fans I have installed it installed well. Except it had one fatal flaw. The cpu did not make contact with the heatsink. Literally it was off by a few millimeters. It removed it and reinstalled it several times and used arctic silver paste (it still had a large gap).
Because of this small gap the repercussions were massive and the computer would shut down or freeze repeatedly. Replace with a coolermaster at the same price range. This was hot garbage and poor design.

Strengths:
Great cooling for my i5-9600K, idling at 24 degrees and 64 degrees under load, very quite and good amount of thermal paste pre-applied.
Weaknesses:
Push pins were a bit tricky to line up and push in, trickier than usual which was weird as I have installed tons of Intel push pin style coolers in the past, this one gave me some troubles.
Additional Comments:
Excellent bang for the buck and much better than the stock intel coolers they provide.
