| asetek VapoChill Micro Review: Ultra Low Noise asetek started with phase-change cooling, then they added water-cooling units to their product list, and today we see their first air cooled heatsink. Is their evolution backwards? The VapoChill Micro is very competitively priced, promises to remove up 150W of CPU generated heat, silently, and it weighs less then a feather. Too good to be true? Letīs find out. http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=348

| apparantly, having the correct orientation is vital to performance of the Micro unit, it needs to point upwards, so it needs to be turned around 180°C in this picture http://www.madshrimps.be/articles/As...iotke-8324.jpg this applies only when it's tested inside a Tower Case, and does not matter when testing on a horizontal testbed.
