There are a lot of other heatsinks which perform far worse than the Evercool CUF715, and there are plenty that perform far better. The CUF715 is stuck dead center in this list of reference heatsinks... it kind of makes you wonder what would compel someone shopping for a new heatsink to choose this model. While price may come into play in the store, it is hard to find pervasive reasons to select the CUF715 when there are better performing heatsinks left and right.

In any case, performance of the Evercool CUF715 is good, and if you have this heatsink in your computer there is no reason to worry. The copper construction will net you dead-average results that will keep your PC running smoothly.
