I notice in the CPU data sheets for the P4 they show the sunflower heatsinks. Is this is what is coming with the northwoods now or is it the standard block heatsink.

Also is this a good tempurature. Fan speed 3000rpm using standard box heatsink that came with the P4 1.5 being used on the northwood 2.0A, the temp is 105 degrees F. basically idle temp.

If you buy a prebuild machine from compaq, gateway, dell,... you will get a sunflower.

If you buy a Retail boxed CPU you will get the normal Intel HSF.

Playing with fans, I noticed the Sunflower fan is .43w 5500RPM and the stock was .2w 4000RPM.
