Weight table listing heavy weight championship fight. (both in Kg and lbs.)

Thermalright units are on route with UPS from www.bacata.net , I'll include weight of each unit, although I have to doubts the Hyper6 will be at the top of the chart.

here's the data from all the P4 coolers (some fit on A64 also) I will test, used a household foodscale so values might be off by 50 gram at the most:

The XP120 weighs in almost identical to Stock Intel is impressive. Do I add the weight of the fan if not so equipped from the manufacturers?
I'm surprised at the NCU2000 250 gr weight.

Good info.;)

only stock cooler was with fan added, all the others are "sans" :)

Wow that Hyper6 is heavy :o

Finished the XP test, next up Intel ones that another 7+ hours straight of testing I need to do, hope the results are interesting.. or else! :)

next week A64

Is the Stock Intel the new copper base?
Piotke has the copper base from the Prescott. The all alum is outdated.:D

Any progress? :D ;)
I'm really looking forward to see the difference in noise and performance between a Thermalright XP-120 and a Zalman CNPS7700Cu. I think many people are interested in a decent review.

next up is part 2 of P4 HSF testing which will include XP-120 and Z7700CU

for A64 I'll be using A64 only heatsinks as otherwise this will be too consuming.

P4 testing is scheduled for upcoming weekend

Maybe You could test (also with socket 478):

Arctic Cooling Freezer - http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.php?idx=10&disc=
Thermaltake Sonic Tower - http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/4...r/cl-p0071.htm

The Freezer64 is coming my way :)

Have not succeeded in contacting Thermaltake, will retry, thanks for the tip.

Testing planned for end of this month

IM SOLD on the Thermalright XP-120 and the fact that is very light those heavy HS scare me . I would like to see a cooper version in the same size . not the XP -90 I SWEAR i saw a cooper version .
