Intel Conroe heatsink group test

Posted on Wednesday, August 02 2006 @ 3:24 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

With the outrageous performance of Conroe, we thought we'd round up some of the best heatsinks on the market for the LGA 775 socket. If you're looking to get a Core 2 Duo, check out our opinions on the best cooling options.

"It's easy to recommend the Freezer 7 Pro. It’s both the best performance and cheapest cooler we tested. On top of that it’s impressively quiet, only breaking above a whisper when the fan spins up to maximum RPM. It didn’t manage to keep the case as cool as the Auras 775, but the four-pin connector and three pounds in the pocket steal the deal."
