Cho Liang CB0307Z17 P4 Heatsink Review
Cho Liang CB0307Z17 P4 Heatsink Review
  75%   
Abstract: This heatsink performed pretty well on the socket 370/socket A test platform so chances are good that we could see equally good performance on the P4 test die.

Performance seems to be better than the much flashier looking CB0309Z17 heatsink we reviewed recently so that is an interesting development. Still, there is a rather large grouping of Cho-Liang heatsinks in the area we would consider OEM, so that might be worth noting. Let's have a look at the rise above ambient temperatures to see just how this heatsink performs.

Even with a simple extruded design, the CB0307Z17 manages to outperform, by a few degrees the much more complex CB0309Z17 heatsink. The differences are pretty close, but it is an interesting one to note regardless. From what we are seeing of Cho-Liang's socket 478 heatsinks there isn't much to get a performance user excited.

The heatsinks are consistently coming in at the OEM level - good for mass produced systems because of cost considerations, but not an improvement over the standard Intel stock socket 478 heatsink. That is a hard title to eclipse, as even heatsink from Dynatron, AVC and Titan have come in under the reference line. In any case, the Cho-Liang CB0307Z17 offers moderate-to-average performance below that of the stock Intel heatsink.
