It does the job, but if you have 5€ more to spend, I recommend the "be quiet! Shadow Rock 3" which has better cooling, and a better thermal paste.

Does its job. Quiet fan. More than enough cooling for an Intel Core i7-13700F (2.1 GHz / 5.2 GHz). No need for a gas factory.
This processor fan is really quiet and very easy to install in its configuration. It's also very good value for money. I'd definitely recommend it.
Assembly is simple.
The cooling is silent.
Very good value for money as the best fans cost more than twice as much to gain only a few degrees.
Ventirad for my i5 9600k and, unlike the original ventirad, I don't exceed 65°C. when playing. Very quiet, not too wide and therefore no worries about being too close to the memory. Beware of the height! It fits in my Fractal R5, but the height can be a problem I guess in some cases.
