Extremely Quiet
The low speed 92 mm fan reduces the noise level to a minimum.
The patented fan holder is able to practically eliminate the typical buzzing sound of 92 mm fans.
The PWM chip in the motor allows an exact fan speed control over the BIOS. (4 wire)

Powerful cooling
6 Heat Pipes (three used double sided) are able to transfer heat up to 200 Watt. The heat exchanger is built of 42 fins and consists of a surface area of over 4700 cm2 and allows for resistance free energy transfer to air.

Integrated Cooling of Voltage Converters
Air is drawn in from the side of the fan to cool the components around the CPU.
Some air is blown out towards the voltage converters o­n the mainboard with the bent fins at the bottom.

Patented Vibration Absorption
The four rubber connectors o­n the fan case act as a vibration damper to absorb the vibration of the running fan and prevent vibration transfer to the heatsink and the case.

Easy Installation
The cooler is to install without any tools within seconds.

Long Lifetime / 6 Years Warranty
The ARCTIC Ceramic Bearing provides an unmatched Life Time of 137’000h (L10@40°C) resp. an MTBF@70°C of 163’000h and thus a 6 year warranty.


Application:

Awful experience
I don’t doubt that performance-wise this cooler is really efficient and worth the money. ABOUT THE INSTALLATION process though, it may be worth noting that it is highly recommended to install this HUGE fan only if you have a big computer case (no mini nor microATX format) and only if your motherboard in NOT ALREADY INSTALLED IN THE CASE!!! Some high-tech people may find the installation easy, but the regular consumer should be aware of the following:
- the copper platform doesn’t necessarily center itself on the CPU (resulting in non-efficient heat transfer)
- if that is the case, and the user rocks the fan unit back and forth, there is the risk that the thermal paste will already stick to the CPU and yanks it out of the socket!!! Damage has occurred in some cases as I have installed many of those HSF Arctic units!
- check the size specs, it is really huge and some motherboards will not allow you to install this heatsink without interfering with the RAM sockets or other components already present on your mobo!

Beware!!

Great cooler *and* EASY to install
As others have stated, this is a great cooler. It can easily get 10-15C+ cooler than the stock Intel C2D coolers.

The best part about it though from my perspective is how easy it is to install. I have installed other coolers which have *slightly* better performance (maybe 3-4C difference) but were *much* harder to install, such as the Tuniq tower or Thermaltake big typhoon. Not only that but this cooler costs half as much as either of those, highly recommended!

Running a Q6600 @ 3.6ghz (400x9) rock solid with this =)
(idle around 37C and ~58C load)

Works well
I’m not going to fawn all over this fan. I really only got about a 2 degree drop out of it on an E6400 compared to the original heatsink, however, it is quieter. I’m also giving the fan the benfit of the doubt that my GPU (evga 8800 gts) is the main heat culprit in my case, and so it just might be that nothing short of water cooling is going to bring my temps down by much since the air temp is so warm, but its not above spec. My suggestion to anyone thinking of replacing their stock fan because of heat is to make sure your case airflow is good first, and that nothing else is causing the heat problem, because this product won’t help much if your case is full of hot air anyway (unless your just looking to get rid of the excess noise of Intel’s fan.)

Incredible cooling ! A 2-thumbs up unit !
I was surprised when I first powered up my new dual core and the heatsink fan spins a short while and then stopped.


Within windows XP, I brought up a CPU temperature monitor utility program to verify that things were within proper limits. And they were !

So, the heatsink itself does a great job of removing heat from the CPU; without having to have the attached fan running all the time.

Even when the fan on the coolers runs, it is a QUIET fan.
Probably due to the rubber shock-mount setup that the fan attaches with.
Great engineering design!

I build and/or upgrade PCs.

In short order, I switched to using THIS dual core heatsink/fan unit for all my customers.

This cooler over delivers; which is rare these days.

Warranty is 6 YEARS; which is also impressive.

I can’t remember the heatsink/fan I bought that was this quiet and well designed. So this must be it.

frosty the cooler
I have a micro-ATX system in a small case, and the 3GHz P4 I have is a heat generator. The OEM cooler kept things at around 40C at idle, and upwards of 55C when running. After installation of this device my idle temps are generally around 20C and have never seen the high side of 45C even gaming.
One more thing, the OEM pin setup is slick. Works just like the original installation. No taking the MB out to install backing plates.

Awesome Cooler
This cooler dropped my temps by 10c. It’s a mother to install on an
Asus P5n-e sli but it was well worth it for the price and the performance.

Didn’t expect this result
As previous guy stated, it cools 10-15C better than original heatsink. I would say that in my case the performance is even better. This summer is really hot in here. So my processor temps begun to reach 70-75C because of high room temps. And the noise from Intel fan is veeery anoing at high revs. Begun to worry about my Prescott. Now with this cooler it doesn’t pass 55C at full load for 4 hours straight. Algo fits well inside the case and do not interfiere with other components. So, I recomend it. Good product.

Excellent for Pentium EE (840) dual core
Cools Pentium 3.2Ghz 840 10-15 degrees below Intel target spec under load, and cooler than my former 3.4 Prescott single core with Intel stock heat sink that was in the same case. Fan noise noticable at performance speeds but not objectionable compared to stock fan whine. Very quiet at CPU idle. Auto-adjustable fan very good at keeping CPU temp constant under varying loads. Quick fan speed increase at sudden load jumps decreases CPU temp immediately, probably helped by heat pipe design. CPU mount should be square with case back as fan blows horizontally.
