does anyone have experience with this? id love to hear opinions!
Has anyone used this heatsink?
so its able to keep the x4 from thermal throttling?
Of course. CPU thermal throttling when temperature over 95 degrees

Yes. I got the 10.4mm. Not working at all… without some air flow the space between copper fins is to narrow to allow some air convection. So without adding a fan I got hard fault and system reboot even forcing the clock just to the base 800MHz. Be aware that to ensure a good contact between the indium sheet and the CPU I had to file the 4 brass standoff.
By just adding 2 tiny but noisy 20x20mm fan on the side the core temp are always between around 30°C with a maximum absolute of 43°C under stress test. Ambient was 20°C.
With a fanless solution requires a large enough area of fins. The heat dissipation area in the picture is too small and heat is accumulated. A fan must be added. You can try replacing a silent fan or giving the fan a lower voltage.
im now only using these and with proper fan they stay super low. i do add proper thermal paste and relocate the nvme and my temps proper low even under full load.
