I'm not a Geek (ow ja?) heeft een review gepost van de torenhoge ThermalTake Super Orb heatsink/fan. Dat groot nog altijd beter is, bewijzen de benchmarks. De Super Orb draaide 5°C koeler dan de Golden Orb en duwde een Duron naar 950MHz waar de Golden Orb niet voorbij 900MHz kwam:
It does not seem this Orb is on the market yet, I found only listing for it at PCHertz.com, but beware that is not a Super Orb, like they say it is actually just a Chrome Orb. I don't know what this thing will cost, but considering you can get a Golden Orb for as little as $11 you should be able find this one for as low as $20. So is it work spending $9 more to get another 50MHz out of your system? You bet it is, in fact its worth a lot more then $9 more. This heatsink is also designed to handle up to 1.5GHz processors, so it will probably still have some life if you upgrade your Socket A processor.
