Op Mikhailtech is een Pentium 4 Heatsink roundup te vinden. Eerst krijg je wat info over het retention mechanisme van de Pentium 4. Vervolgens komen achtereenvolgens deze coolers aan de beurt: de Coolermaster DP4-6I11, de Globalwin WAW-38 and WAW-68, de Taisol CEP405092 en de EKL 20804011005. Vervolgens zijn deze coolers getest op verschillende wattages en dat resulteerde in de volgende conclusie:
Well, even if it’s not either the absolute best performer or the more silent cooler, the winner is without any doubt the Taisol CEP405092. Is about the same, noise-wise, of all the other coolers with a Delta Low Profile fan, but is really close in performance to the WAW-38 which uses a Delta Black Label fan. The pure noise winner is the EKL, thanks to its fan but its performance is pretty basic. This makes it a good cooler for a stock P4 up to 1.5 Ghz but not an overclocker's friend. The pure performance winner is the WAW-38 that manages to outperform every other cooler thanks to the Black Label fan.
