Vantec FCE-62540D Heatsink Review
When we first got this cooler we were a little taken
back by the sheer size of it... When we plugged it in we knew by the sound of the fan,
that the FCE-62540D meant business. The company who makes this deadly looking
heatsink, Vantec, have been around for some time.
We haven't seen to much of them around here, in fact the last Vantec
I saw was a slot 1! Designed for the PIII and T-Bird processors, we set about testing this heatsink against
the cream of the crop, and let me say, even Thermaltake had
a hard time competing with this little powerhouse....

a design capable of competing with the likes of Thermaltakes' SuperORB...
