Pros: Super-fast, reliable processor. Stock heat sink and fan that comes with it keeps it around 29 C idle and 43 C at load. Using an aerocool case with intake and exhaust fans only. Running at stock speed of 3 Ghz.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Try the stock heatsink and fan first before spending $$$ on another one, the difference will probably be marginal anyway. For this price range it's the best processor you can buy!
