UKGamer.net has posted an article comparing two of the biggest heatsinks made by the cooling giant GlobalWin. Here a snippet:



´The fans run at a seriously high RPM. As soon as I got the motherboard monitor on, the results started to come through. On the OcUK and GlobalWin´s web site they say the fans are around 6200 RPM, however these fans were running a lot higher. Both fans were constantly around the 7000 RPM mark. The fans push out a surprisingly high volume of air for their size, and because of the high RPM, at nearly 2500 revs per minute more than the VOS32 fans it isn´t surprising that these are smaller, but these faster fans push out a staggering 32.4 CFM of air.´

´So, from that we see a 3 C difference from the FKK50. It´s still a bit of a difference, but does it warrant the extra price? It depends a lot on whether you want the lowest possible temperature when you are overclocking your CPU. Remember the Athlon we used on the test machine was not overclocked, and as you all know when you do overclock your CPU generates a lot more heat, a lot quicker.´
