Recommend a Heatsink thread!

[soap_dodger]

Right after my computer is screaming that the heatsink etc is failing, I need a new heatsink etc. (Thanks Intel!)

Can anybody recommend a decent, quiet, easy to fit one?

No £40 monsters please!

Doubt the freezer pro would fit in my system tbh. It's a mini atx system...

No it's a PC, but it's a midi case and a mini atx board, so it's gonna be a b!tch finding one that will fit.

My bottom wasn't copper, mines the version before the copper bottom came out...

It is pretty big, it only just fits on my Micro ATX motherboard which is in a full size ATX case. The one you have bought looks good though

It is running at a cool 26c atm!

I've got a Gigabyte board and it's a horrible motherboard setup! So glad I chose the one I did, just fits!

 

[panda1408]

Good to see its working well, what processor do you have?

 

[soap_dodger]

It's a 1.6 Pentium Dual Core, E2140? I think, bought it about 2 years ago but had issues with the hard drive getting in my case and gave up, only just got round to sorting it out.
