EKWB has launched a new passive cooler for M.2 NVMe SSDs, which aims to reduce thermal throttling of ultra-fast drives.
The cooler is a low-profile heatsink which attaches to the drive with a clip, and is available in either black or nickel.
EKWB said the heatsink lowers SSD operating temperatures by 8-11 degrees Celsius, which the company said improves performance under heavy load.
The heatsink consists of a front and back plate, and is compatible with all single-sided M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs (22mm wide and 80mm long).
The cooler is priced at €10 for the black model and €13 for the nickel model.

You’ll need a lot of air flow through your tower to make this passive cooler even worth getting. If aesthetical value is one of the main selling points from the manufacturer’s website, then you’ll probably have to think twice.
