We continue our heatsink tested with the addition of four brand new contenders from coming from Coolermaster and Scythe, as well as retest the popular Tuniq Tower 120. To accommodate the target audience of some of the new heatsinks they were tested with silent as well as high performance fans, if you’re looking for extreme cooling by use of conventional air cooling, you’ve come to the right article! Heatsinks Compared These heatsinks were previously tested on the Intel S775 setup:  5 heatsinks are now added to the comparison:  From left to right: S775 Test Setup and Methodology We build a new S775 system with new parts from Alternate.de, the CPU is one hot running Pentium 4 524, 3.06Ghz. It is mounted on a Swiss-army knife equivalent of motherboards: an Asrock 775Dual-VSTA.      The mounting system on S775 is quite straight forward and well thought out, 4 holes around the socket serve as mounting points for the push pins on the standard Intel cooler. Installation is a snap, and removal is very easy too.  With the stock cooling and at stock voltage the 3Ghz P4 was running stable at 3.68Ghz, quite a nice improvement from default speeds. A Watt Meter recorded peak power consumption under heavy CPU load at 138W, which is less than our previous Athlon 64 setup which consumed up to 165W. The Asrock bios lacks CPU voltage manipulation, so at default voltage is seems this Prescott setup is more power friendly then the over-volted AMD system. We’re re-using the case, power supply and VGA card from our previous Athlon 64 test setup to complete the S775 system:
 dBA meter is placed right at the edge of the case - with side panel removed Fans used for comparison To eliminate as much variables in the tests we test each heatsink with a "reference" fan if it can be mounted. Onto our first new contestant ->  More reviews in this category can be found below: |
