Viper's Lair has posted a review on the Vantec 1U CCK-6012 low profile cooler



As expected, the CCK-6012 is badly outperformed by the larger heatsink. At 55C, the processor is far from the danger zone, but still a little warmer than we'd like.

I certainly wouldn't replace the heatpipe cooling in the Shuttle boxes with this cooler.
