I just received this today, and installed it. While it's a nice, substantial heatsink, therubber bands silicone bands are extremely thin and fragile. I think the issue lies where they have the texture on the band, as mine ripped straight across where the area is lower than the rest. If they had kept it all one thickness, I think they would be a lot more durable. The heatsink is likely tall to go into a M.2 slot under a GPU, so keep that in mind as well.
If you decide to buy this product, make sure you have some electrical tape (or some other type of non-conductive material) around to use instead if you happen to run into this issue. After I installed the first one without issue, I thought to myself "I don't know why there were so many user reviews who seemed to have issues with the band ripping" right before it ripped on me.
