A Cool Bunch: How To Put A Lid On The Die Temperature Of Your Athlon

Quiet But Uncool: Verax P14

Quantity doesn't necessarily imply quality: the heatsink of the P14.

The heat sink is made from aluminum. The fan is attached on the heat sink with rubber nipples. Looking at the massive and voluminous heat sink, you'd think that this solution will also work for processors running at higher speeds. As the result shows, however, at best, a Duron will do fine under this cooler. It will get more than a bit toasty for a Thunderbird.
