Quiet and stout

This is a nice HSF, the fixings are simple and easy and it is quiet.



Fitted ok on an an A8N-SLI Premium - if your ram is a bit large (heatspreaders etc..) you may find the tips of the heatpipes just grazing them as I did but its fine.

Excellent Cooler

Built a low profile "Hackintosh" in an HTPC case, with a Quad2Core - does the job nicely, and fits inside the low profile case with ease.

Highly recommended.

Very quiet and efficient
review by: David Shanks rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows 7

Got this cooler as part of a Home Theatre PC Build. Fits neatly inside the low profile Antec Fusion 350 case and operates extremely quietly cooling a Core 2 Duo E6750 - even on full load. CPU temp never exceeds 45C, but normally sits around 39C in general use (36C idling).



I found fitting the heatsink very straightforward with the motherboard removed from the case.



Highly recommended if you want a quiet cooler.

Brilliant piece of kit
review by: Timothy Auger rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows XP

Firstly to answer the previous question, this fits to the original fan mountings: it does not have to be screwed to the mobo.



Fitting on an AMD mounting is almost frighteningly easy. Apply a layer of thermal paste, fit the appropriate clips from the box to the heat sink. Position the unit, close up the tool free fittings, connect it to the CPU fan header. Job done.



I've used one to replace the whiney stock cooler on an old socket 754 Sempron pc that I have turned into a server. Now in order to hear any sound from that pc I have to put my ear right against it.



The other is on a socket AM2+ A-bit mobo cooling an Athlon II x3 435 and is presently running flat out, but again is silent.



For anything up to a dual core I'd recommend this wholeheartedly. For a triple core it is ok provided you have good airflow thru the case and don't work the CPU too hard for long periods. I think it would struggle with a quad core, but then use its big brother, the Zippang.



For ease of installation. silence, value for money I'd rate this the best fansink I have used. For preference i'd buy only OEM CPUs and use Shurikens to cool them.



Five stars is the max on here, but I'd give it ten if I could.

Cheap, well built and quiet
review by: Stephen Blair rating:
customer rating
operating system: Not Applicable

Bought to replace a noisy stock Intel cooler and I'm happy to say it is very quiet.



Comes with simple but clear instructions, thermal grease and clips for various sockets.



My only gripe is that when installing on a socket 775 MB the top heat sink overhangs the push pins which makes exerting the pressure needed to secure the heatsink to the MB somewhat tricky.



Overall though, a good buy if you want a cheap, quiet and small CPU cooler.

Overall Good Cooler
review by: Andrew rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows XP

I used this to replace the stock cooler that is is shipped with the DELL 540s.



Once fitted the noise reduction is quite noticeable so all is well.



I found the clips hard to install as the heatsink overhangs the clips that need to be pushed down. Make sure all the clips are pushed down and that the heatsink is installed properly.

Nice Quiet Cooler
review by: Trevor rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows XP

I got this to cool a Intel quad core Q8200, although it cools it but I wouldnt use it again for a quad core. I think its perfect for a home theatre. The thing I was impressed by was the quiet fan, Silent!

i7 Performance
review by: Anonymous rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows Vista

Not so great for the i7 920 system, running on full load (using Everest, not over clocked) and temps where creeping up to the high 70's before I chickened out and stopped it. So get something beastier for these systems.



Its also a pain to fit with the radiator overlapping the push pins.
