Arctic Cooling Alpine64
 

If you're into high performance cooling then you know the name Arctic Cooling, even the name sounds cool (pun intended). Today for review I have the Alpine64 CPU Cooler from them, it kind of turns the ideas we have of CPU coolers around 360 degrees; by that I mean normally a smooth finished heatsink base is what is mainly looked for in a CPU Cooler. The Alpine64 is a bit different, to quote from Arctic Cooling: “Only with the viscosity of this MX-1 paste combined with the surface roughness of the cooler can we guarantee correct heat dissipation” Now that's odd because a heatsink base should be as smooth as possible right? Well Arctic Cooling doesn't think it has to be, and the Alpine64 cooler proves that to be true with its' excellent performance, read on to learn just what I mean...
