Chosen model as well noted in a bimonthly magazine devoted to personal computing hardware. Cooler for cooling a Q6600 (TDP = 105W) mounted on a Micro ATX motherboard in an average round. Robust appearance and well finished equipment. The thermal compound is already in place. The cooler fits hair cell between the motherboard components (5 mm longer, it did not return more fan side). Very simple and robust assembly without removing the motherboard. The cooler can be oriented in 4 directions for Intel support (2 for AMD support). Processor idle, the cooler is barely audible. A 30% charge for 2 hours, only a slight hiss is noticeable. Now I can not hear the hard drive, whereas before the sound of the cooler was omnipresent.
