Thermalright AXP90-X36

A 36 mm top-flow cooler using a 92 mm slim fan over a four-heatpipe heatsink, for systems with very limited CPU-cooler height.

IDENTIFICATION: The X36 is the standard aluminum-fin AXP90-X36, not a copper-base/fin variant. Check the model label and included bracket set.

Manufacturer specifications

Overall dimensions	94.5 × 95 × 36 mm with fan; heatsink alone is 94.5 × 95 × 21 mm. Published assembly weight: 230 g.
Fan / thermal limits	TL-9015, 92 × 92 × 15 mm; 2,700 RPM ±10% maximum, 42.58 CFM, 1.33 mm H₂O, 22.4 dBA, 0.18 A, 4-pin PWM. No radiator. Thermalright lists no model-specific TDP limit; choose CPU power settings only after checking real system thermals.
Mounting kit and sockets	Use the AXP90-X36 mounting kit identified by its installation guide. Thermalright lists Intel LGA 115x, 1200, 1700, 1851 and AMD AM4/AM5; check exact motherboard support and supplied revision.
Clearance caveats	Provide at least 36 mm vertical clearance and a 94.5 × 95 mm footprint. Check DIMMs, board heatsinks, PCIe and case geometry; very low cooler height does not ensure unobstructed airflow around the socket.

Safe installation and maintenance

Install the socket-specific hardware in the manufacturer sequence. This low profile may depend heavily on unobstructed case intake and exhaust; do not assume a CPU's stock power limit is safe solely because the cooler fits. Disconnect power before service and renew thermal compound whenever the contact is disturbed.

Route the PWM lead away from fan blades, RAM clips, and exposed board contacts.
Monitor temperature and fan operation during a controlled first load.
