Alpha AMD XP heatsink S-PAL8055F Review

jmke · 11th June 2004, 22:55

ALPHA is back with an improved AMD XP heatsink, the S-PAL8055F, does bigger mean better? Does it stand a chance against the SP-97´s heatpipes? Time to find out!

wasn't' there a new king already? One of those huge heatpipe monsters that rise up and where the fan blows sideway throught the grills... or was that a P4 only heatsink (would be odd)?

the Hyper6 is for P4/A64 only

hyper 6 is quiet big and is heavy ( lever effect)

I think this 1 is quiet good performing for its price.

It sucks, just as described in the manual.
