Blizzard heat sink performance

[bertvandonk]

Just installed a Blizzard heatsink to replace the existing
Kanie Hedgehog on
AMD 1333 (running at 1400MHz)
A7M266
before MB temp 30 deg C
CPU temp 50 deg C
After MB temp 26 deg C
CPU temp 41 deg C
Ambient temperature 24.4 deg C
All other conditions the same!
monitored by Motherboard Monitor 5.Both Heatsinks had the same fan and were carefully mounted with Artic Silver as the
thermal compound.
The only other difference is the fan on the Kanie was sucking and the fan on the Blizzard was blowing.

"on the Kanie was sucking and the fan on the Blizzard was blowing."

Either way your CPU had a great time

Better to be blown than too suck

Crank it up... way up!! I need that power.
