The idea and design looks sound.

the testing methodology is ridiculous though. Why compare something geared at a HTPC to something geared at OC machines. I am surprised it performed as well as it did on a stock core i7. (within 5C of the megahalem)

I do like the design, but designers should really consider all applications of a HS before actually manufacturing it. The fact that it does not sit well on AMD socket is just ridiculous. Its like the guys at prolimatech decided to take a nap on this one. they do this again and they should have just stayed at thermalright.
