Heatsink - good; Newegg catagory - not good 10/08/2014
This review is from: SUPERMICRO SNK-P0040AP4 CPU Heatsink & Cooling Fan for Xeon Processor 5500/5600 Series
Pros:
Cools Xeon X5650 similar to Noctua NH-U9DXi4 in dual CPU workstation. Cores within 2-3 deg C of each other.
Fan is quiet even when running at max speed.
Cons:
None for heatsink/fan combo. Newegg needs to refine their "Server accessories" catagory.
Overall Review:
I wish I would have found this when I purchased the Noctua cooler several month ago for double the price. This item should be under Heatsink/coolers. The server accessories catagory is too bloated to be of much use. I just happened to stumble upon it while looking for something else.
