Cooler Master Vortex Plus Heatsink

Cooler Master sent over a new heatsink which is aimed at the
Home Theater PC (HTPC) market, the Vortex Plus. I've been a fan of
Cooler Master products for years so I was excited for the chance to
see how this heatsink performed. Since most HTPC users are mostly
concerned with silence, I wasn't expecting the Vortex Plus to break
any overclocking records. However, I was expecting it to outperform
any stock heatsink in both efficiency and noise level. Therefore, I
will be using the stock Intel heatsink supplied with my Xeon 3050
processor for comparison.
