This thing is dead silent. I was using an oem heat sink and the fan made a ton of noise. This makes zero noise and works amazing. I don't remember what the cpu temps were before but now they are around 40C on my AMD II x3 3.2. Installation was pretty straight forward but my case is a little tight so I had to play with it a little to get it to sit properly.
All in all, great product. Gave it a 4 star because although it does have copper heat pipes, the surface that touches the cpu itself is aluminum. Also the heat paste was very liquidly which I didn't like.

This thing is only 58mm tall and fits in very small cases, such as the In-Win BK623 that I have. It's also very quiet, and can accommodate a thicker fan later if you move to a bigger case.

All told a much quieter/better-performing option than the old Zalman cooler that it replaced. Some users reported issues with it not fitting in systems with large heatsinks on RAM modules, and covering the first RAM slot in builds without: I had none of these issues, even on a M-atx board. Installation was surprisingly easy, with the same push-pin connectors as the stock Intel fans, and a surprisingly large amount of clearance beneath the fan for fingers to work the pins.
If you have the room, the first thing I would do is replace it with a regular 25mm thickness fan. With that, its performance is quite impressive, considering the size and design.

This HSF is very low profile and uses a large quiet fan that you can easily replace with a non low profile fan if you needed a little more cooling power and it would still fit it in some pretty small spaces.
this is by far the easiest heatsink i have ever installed. the adapter clips in and then it clips onto the AM3 bracket - why can't they all be that simple? and the PWM fan is dead silent, which was exactly what i wanted.
I ordered this to go along with E6500 in a MI-800BK case and Zotac HTPC. As it turns out this is actually about 3/4" higher than the stock cooler from intel, so I could't actually use it for anything.

This cooler was purchased for my i3-530 HTPC/workstation build, and it has performed flawlessly. The original i3 heatsink sounded like a lawnmower at any speed, the Shuriken is absolutely better in every way.
I've got two of these now and they are great for slim home theater PCs. One is mounted in a bigger case so I replaced the thin 120mm fan with a regular one and it is a silent PC now. I've purchase quite a few Scythe heatsinks now and I've never been disappointed with the quality of their products.
