If one doesn't want to buy the official RGB-colored gaming model with the samsung heatsink on it, and you know what the vertical clearance is above your M.2 slot on a motherboard, it's totally possible to buy your own low cost small aluminum heatsinks and stick them on with heatsink adhesive. Not very different from the cheap aluminum heatsinks you see people putting on the CPU of a raspberry pi. Sufficient airflow across the motherboard is also important, of course. https://www.ebay.com/itm/20Pc-ST036Y-12-12-3MM-Aluminum-Heatsinks-Chip-Small-Electronic-Radiator-Thermal/114558256156?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item1aac34441c:g:If4AAOSwlRVfynm-&amdata=enc%3AAQAFAAACgBaobrjLl8XobRIiIML1V4Imu%252Fn%252BzU5L90Z278x5ickkAgU0umhwUTmgTFbE5cu7zaRBzoNh8UGQMVjUnMK%252BYUwDgVGTspyItNBA1URmj6RASN6vajf8jOtzjkcCpACT98D2LfbgNdhCQ1meowni6LuAPrSKax%252B8h1x9k8X9LS3VjB6nb5ka4e9y8KSP4cc2XK%252BTvdfOUwM%252FzYwFkPMxf%252FfjX82W98jcxCkOvTr4rv52UkZGIB6hyM58g9gxq7dsM8gkX3UrbjJ3lNr3XgGKTpADz7vyxTAat4QV8RpmZX4PWcoWmPn54YRSFDGBCpicfpj95oLriruP23GzwDGxP6jsSeRiUFS2HWXttSETjALQrJlU%252FW1VYs9DWXwdYOfbAh4lDtYJbFnk%252FjWAwrHFNrJYGWI6tVs1lGVi3N34L97e4ua7kFvDZpz8vXOOPoy3%252BjsbGg%252Bvztzo0EU40HE9Xg%252FXkkgqbNTOMjO5dx52dZm63jcqbMY13E3BFBM9T8lV%252FyEbLG6niwGTABEttBQNia4glWEPsMMqpFDQTH83TWTZFg51Ji0sWOWDa%252F9QFHU%252BpZw8dkzFou7jlGvDWXeKTRjLlU9ZWivZTE2Auo%252Bg39xqys2DxzLa3osjwKEV1lRZ62yavXXr1usdHspzkRKshOirwLsUFKW8gXmOhV7DKkXQF9BrnAwi4%252B2mUsTVCIa%252FG1KIg47ZRBcbPOI3z4WE7GPNdMAVIOXZBQ9vcq9IJvgKLaAGFPFq3lg2Q9dh%252FAQ9Q7nMnUkJtYa%252FTAhuYjTCI7Bd1zQ2me0eRfBggXcceSfiGOWCfiwzpOO2xlcXlHmx15iDe48IY1Cclvl6cK8x3wI%253D%7Ccksum%3A114558256156308b141f89d247548e8b99b61b49a4a1%7Campid%3APL_CLK%7Cclp%3A2334524 https://www.ebay.com/itm/20Pc-ST036Y-12-12-3MM-Aluminum-Heat... https://www.ebay.com/itm/12pcs-14x14x6mm-Small-Anodized-Heatsink-CoolerGKWIXIHHGEDLfi/193928853094?hash=item2d270f7666:g:7wEAAOSwdoJbNK4S https://www.ebay.com/itm/12pcs-14x14x6mm-Small-Anodized-Heat... https://www.ebay.com/itm/12pcs-Small-Aluminum-Heatsink-Cooling-Kit-with-Adhesive-Glue-on-Back-14x14x6mm/373391716882?hash=item56efe17212:g:wAwAAOSwAepd~Vkt https://www.ebay.com/itm/12pcs-Small-Aluminum-Heatsink-Cooli...
