After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

GlacialTech Igloo 4310 Heatsink Review

Conclusion
Conclusion
The graphs show a very typical picture for a heatsink of this caliber, the Igloo 4310 is rated for Pentium
4 systems 3.0Ghz and below. In that range I feel this is an excellent alternative/replacement to the stock Intel cooler.
Even though I wouldn't recommend it for the serious overclocker the timid weekend gamer and weekday worker will
find the Igloo to be a perfect fit. System integrators will also like the easy to use metal clipping system though be
warned it does not come with a motherboard mounting kit.
So to sum up here is my list of Good things and Bad things.
