| Good work on the HSF round up. Really makes it nice to see all the HSF next to eachother for easy comparison. |

![]() | nope; like said in the article "the overall thought is the same as last time; I’m unable to come up with ONE winner as most top performance heatsinks are so closely matched that with an acceptable margin of error these rankings can be mixed up." + these heatsinks may rank different if you have another case with other case fans set up.

![]() | Actually, Custom PC had a recent HSF review and the Arctic Cooling 64 and Scythe Ninja were top performers too. |

![]() | well, my INOFFICAL "king of the hill" ranking is: TT BT if you need a heatsink with fan and are willing to spend a bit more Scythe Ninia with 4 Papst GLL fans, if you really want the best and are willing to ruin yourself Freezer 64 Pro if you're on budget but need OC headroom |

![]() | I'm afraid they put big reviews on the web page after 4 months they've been in the magazine. |
