Arctic Unveils New Freezer 8 Compact CPU Cooler Series
Arctic presents the new Freezer 8, which is available in different socket variants. The air cooler series offers a convincing upgrade for boxed coolers and small cases at an excellent price-performance ratio. With a height of just 136 mm, the Freezer 8 fits easily into various cases and is ideal for systems with limited space and high RAM modules. Two offset direct-touch heatpipes and a pressure-optimized 100 mm PWM fan ensure quiet and powerful operation. If required, a maximum speed of 2,300 rpm can be achieved.
The compact air cooler is available in four versions for different sockets and applications:
All Freezer 8 series coolers are supplied with pre-applied MX-6 thermal compound, proving that efficient cooling does not require a lot of space or high costs.
Optional Offset Mounting for AMD
The offset mounting with rail system enables precise positioning of the heat sink for more efficient heat transfer for multi-die AMD CPUs.

Price is certainty interesting.
Non-standard 100mm fan
136mm tall
<20euro
It's very niche, there isn't much competition that beats it on paper.
Closest I can see are
Mars Gaming MCPU33 RGB (3 heatpipes, 110mm fan, 18-26euro)
Mars Gaming MCPU44 RGB (4 heatpipes, 110mm fan, 23-30euro)
Alpenfohn Ben Nevis rev.B (3 heatpipes, 120mm fan, 28+ euro)
or top-down coolers (Thermalright SI-100 / AXP120-X67, Mars Gaming MCPU220 RGB).
It's only 100mm tall (shorter than this Arctic), built with 6x heatpipes and has a respectable 50mm RAM clearance.
