Highest TDP rated CPU cooler under ~65mm

Imbellis

In "Ultra Compact Gaming PC", they cool a 145-watt chip with this thing and a Noctua fan.

 

Are there any consumer-grade cooling options? I know Dynatron has a lot on their server end - but not much for the consumer.

Why not use something from their server end?

I have two passive server heatsinks I use that I added fans to. and they are pretty dang good

Those kind of coolers are designed for high airflow and use a vapor chamber to help transfer the heat to the fins as quickly and evenly as possible. It depends on what you can fit but here are some options for low profile coolers.

I'm just curious as to how a 27mm heatsink that costs $30 with a Noctua fan strapped to it has a far higher TDP rating than Noctua's NH-L9 (165W vs 95W);

If you were to add a Noctua 20mm fan to it, you'd have a 47mm cooler that beats Noctua's 65mm.

 

TDP/mm(H):

T318 w/ 20mm fan:2.511

NH-L9:                 1.462

C7:                      2.128

 

Edit: I just noticed that you mentioned high airflow; however, in the linked video, they throw the thing on with a Noctua fan and cool a 165 Watt TDP 22 core chip.

I would expect that system to run quite hot but the main thing really with that cooler is the vapor chamber and the way it carries away heat, coupled with it designed to be used in a server cooling environment.
