I just put together a new AMD62X2 AM2 system, and have been *quite* |
14 |
impressed with the cooler that I purchased: |

There was a bit of an installation problem on the motherboard that I |
19 |
have (if you look at the 3rd and 4th pictures on Newegg, you'll see |
20 |
there are two little metal tabs sticking out on each side of the |
21 |
bracket at the top of the picture - I had to actually grind those off |
22 |
to get the cooler to install into the MSI K9N6PGM-F motherboard), but |
23 |
have been very happy - the fan's maximum speed is 2000 rpm, it is very |
24 |
quiet (very bright LEDs, but if you can live with that), and does an |
25 |
excellent job cooling the CPU - I've not seen the CPU rise more than 1 |
26 |
degree above room temperature yet, even under heavy load.... |
