Cryorig C1 is very low profile-- only 74mm in total (http://www.cryorig.com/c1_us.php)

 

I use that on my i5 8600k with a mile 4.5ghz overclock!

I'm using a Cyrorig H7, which is 145mm. I've got it overclocked to 4.6GHz atm and while gaming I stay at about 65c. I can also run 4.8GHz at around 70-75c. I've had it at 5.1GHz but I really wouldn't recommend that for daily use as it gets up to 90c.
