The 120mm PWM fan spins its impeller at 800-1500RPM and draws power from a standard 4-pin PWM motherboard fan header. It's backwards compatible with 3-pin connectors. The four 8mm diameter copper heatpipes extend from the base up through ~40 thick aluminum fins. Each aluminum fin measures 0.4mm thick, and the fins are spaced 2.0mm apart. With the fan removed the gentle "V" shaped curve running down the middle is apparent in the right-hand image.

The OCZ Gladiator Max heatsink stands 161mm tall, the bottom-most fin is 40mm above the CPU socket for clearance of adjacent capacitors, northbridge heatsinks, etc. The four copper heat pipes are positioned side to side at the center of the aluminum block where they make direct contact with the processor. The base composed of a 10mm thick aluminum section to provide support for clamping.

The base of the OCZ Gladiator Max heatsink measures 45x33mm in usable area. The four 8mm diameter copper heatpipes have been swaged into the aluminum base block, the surfaces sanded flush. Looking at the top of the heatsink, a jagged trailing edge to the aluminum fins is visible along with the slight dip at the center to help direct exhaust airflow towards the sides. Notice how the heatpipes intersect the fins where the path of airflow from the 120mm fan is highest.
