Quote: "The Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 Pro is just such heatsink: ideal for mainstream CPUs that don't exceed 90W TDP.... so long as the fan speed stays at 2000RPM. Frostytech pushed the test scenario a little further than that of course. Arctic Cooling's Alpine 64 Pro is a mainstream extruded aluminum heatsink that features the companies signature suspended low noise fan. The design minimizes turbulence and the noise created by air moving over the edges of a traditional fan frame, by removing as much of the fan frame as possible."

Its enormous size alone would seem to insure excellent cooling. However, as we see in the testing, the T4 just isn't able to keep up with the competition."
Quote: "We have seen quite a few Taiwanese manufacturers produce brilliant coolers recently – including the “Fenrir” from Taiwan based company Titan, and the Megahalems from the also Taiwan based company – ProLimaTech. My hopes are that the Evercool Transformer 4 will continue the trend of the Taiwanese based companies – and perform above similar European based competition whilst being price competitive."
