Heatsink Roundup Q3 2006
 

These heatsinks are multi platform, so while I'm testing them yer old Athlon 64 setup, results should go over nicely to the new Core 2 and AM2.

here's the list of heatsinks which will be included in the test:

- Silverstone NT06
- Zalman CNPS8000
- Titan Amanda TEC Cooling
- Asus Silent Square
- Scythe Infinity
- Thermalright Ultra-90
- Thermalright Ultra-120

the Zalman CNPS8000 I consider testing in a small Antec Aria case, as it meant for HTPC/Barebone use.

Can we get some passive testing too?


Wondering how the 1 kilo monster from Scythe does and how easy to install it is.

that's the plan, much like I did here: http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=get...&articID= 406

are u still testing?

what do you think? ;)

finished testing Ultra-90, review out soon, next up.. Ultra-120

ultra-120 is very nice but even more nice is the scythe infinity where i'm waiting on but take your time :p

If I never take time, I will never have time ;)

hello everyone at madshrimps, love this site!
cant wait to see these heatsinks tested:)
im about to buy the ultra 120 - just waiting for it to be released here (australia). ive picked up a asus p5b MB and i think ive just got enough clearance on my lian li V1000 to fit the ultra 120- that devider that sits between the PS and the bottom of the MB is a pain. ive got a small case mod (based around a tower cooler) coming up that ill post in the forums soon.

.

:hello: and welcome to the forums; any high end heatsink will offer you performance far superior to the stock cooling when it comes down to noise/performance ratio; the Ultra-120 takes 120mm fans so you're in for the silent treatment! (unless you put a Delta 120mm spinner on there:p)

Testing some fancy JS script:)
