Is the 52Pi ICE Tower Plus as ridiculous as it looks? Yes. Does it do an incredible job of cooling the Raspberry Pi 5? Also yes.

52Pi ICE Tower Plus for Raspberry Pi 5 Review - bret.dk

The 52Pi ICE Tower Plus cooler for the Raspberry Pi 5 is bigger, better, and packs a hefty cooling punch. Is it overkill? Or is it perfect?

@LinusTech I understand why you'd recommend the OrangePi 5 here buuut people really need to be aware that the "5.10.x" kernel is a bodged 2.6.x kernel with random patches brought in. There's no mainline support, GPU support requires hacks. Don't buy it expecting a smooth ride, friends.
