Easy Installation
Customers have reported easy installation of the Thermaltake Gravity i2 CPU Cooler, with some noting that it is a direct replacement for older coolers and requires close attention to compatibility before installing. The fan is also noted to be quiet and shows up in the BIOS and HWMonitor software after installation.
Pre-Applied Thermal Paste
Customers are highly satisfied with the pre-applied thermal paste on the Thermaltake Gravity i2 CPU Cooler, making installation more secure and easier. Some users have noted that it performs better than stock Intel coolers and is a great option for entry level to mid-range Intel chip users. However, a few customers mentioned that it requires access to the back of the motherboard due to the use of a backplate.
Quiet Operation
Customers are generally positive about the quiet operation of the Thermaltake Gravity i2 cooler, with most noting that it operates quietly and effectively keeps their CPUs cool under heavy loads. Some customers have mentioned that it is a quick and easy choice for older systems and performs exceptionally well for the cost. However, some users have had issues with the mounting bracket and the fact that modern motherboards no longer support the 3-pin CPU fan connector.

For under $15 it keeps an overclocked i7 3770k at 4.
If you want even more quiet buy an adapter to reduce voltage for a couple dollars.
Shipping
(fedex delivery estimated to arrive at 8pm guaranteed day of, received delivery at 1pm in the afternoon).
Placed an order for one-day shipping and package arrived as expected on time.
Items were shipped in originally manufacturer box with of course amazon usual airplus storopack in brown box.
Packaging/appearance
It's packaged well and easy enough to install as long as you pay close attention to the instructions.
Competitiveness
If you need a great, basic cooler for your intel chip that’s slightly better than the default cooler, look no further!
I used the thermaltake gravity i3 to replace the stock cooler in my dell optiplex, which has an intel i5 12500 chip.
Two things i noticed right away -- compared to the dell cooler, the thermaltake is larger, both wider and taller, and has a larger fan.

As a side note it barely fits in my case with a listed 160mm of heatsink clearance so make sure you have at least that much

Maybe not worth the upgrade would rather buy a tower cooler cooler for about 10 more
