Finished Looks

CRYORIG's M9i is definitely a cooler with a lot of contrast; the bright aluminum pairs well with the black plastic top-plate and fan, which gives the cooler a neutral theme that should fit in well enough with most builds.


I have no doubt that the M9 will fit into just about any case with the exception of some HTPC options where it might be a bit too tall to play ball.


No LEDs, blinged-out fans, or other crazy things, the M9i is just sleek and clean, almost business-like.


Since CRYORIG made sure to follow AMD's and Intel's keep-out zone guideline, the M9 won't get in the way of DIMM or expansion slots, or a motherboard's EPS 8-pin plug, which makes this small cooler a great option in cramped cases or when the motherboard has already been installed. Never underestimate how nice it is to avoid having to cram your hand between a cooler and a case to plug in that 8-pin EPS power cable.
