Sorted into categories for heatsinks
measuring less than
150mm, 110mm, 75mm or 45mm
high, Frostytech ranks the best compact CPU coolers available by
thermal performance and quietest operation. The first list is for
Intel processor heatsinks, the second for AMD processor heatsinks. To
find the
absolute best heatsinks regardless of size, go to the main Frostytech Top 5 Heatsink Chart for a complete run down.

HOW IT WORKS: The #1 Rank
is considered the current Top low-profile heatsink meeting the specific height limitation, #5 is the 5th BEST. Full size heatsinks are not included here but do offer significantly better thermal results. Only heatsinks that Frostytech has tested are included in these lists; thus we guarantee this list is incomplete, that it's not an indication of "the best low-profile heatsink ever" and that rankings will frequently change with each chart update.
