Verax P11T From All Angles

The Fan:

The seven bladed impeller on this 20mm thick fan creates a small amount of airflow and practically zero noise. Compared to a traditional heatsink, the CAIRdB is pretty revolutionary - but it is important to keep in mind that this heatsink is only officially listed to support the Athlon 1.2GHz chips. Overclocking would not be a good idea, but use in a zero noise system might be just fine.The fan uses two NIRO ball bearings and connects to the motherboard via a 3-pin fan header which supports RPM monitoring.

Top: The heatsink is based on a very wide spacing of pins and uses a locking clip design to prevent shifting once installed on the processor. The extrusion is pretty simple and it is hard to say if it really ought be upgraded to something will a little more kick as that might affect airflow from this fan.

Side A: The fins on the extrusion are all rather thick to what is the standard these days. However with the relatively low amount of air flow that comes from the fan the spacing is probably well suited. The base measures 6mm thick and the fins range from 4mm - 2mm at the tips. Fins are spaced ~2.5mm apart at the base. The clip can be engaged by just the fingers.
Side B:
The side of the heatsink has an assortment of cross cuts which help to increase surface area and induce turbulence within the fin structure of the heatsink.

Heatsink Base:

The base has been polished pretty flat, but looks a bit rough in this picture. It came with a patch of thermal compound on it, which was removed for our test purposes.
