Glacialtech Igloo 5751 PWM Heatsink Review
Glacialtech Igloo 5751 PWM Heatsink Review
  73%   
Abstract: The old cool had a matched set of 20mm thick 92mm fans running in balance with respect to airflow, the Igloo 5751 PWM Frostytech is testing today approaches things differently.

FrostyTech Mk.II Synthetic Thermal Heatsink Test Results
AMD Phenom I/II, Athlon64 / FX / X2, Sempron class heatsinks
Results based on readings from a 38x38mm copper interface die with 125W heat load on the K8 version of the Mk.II Test Platform. Temperature results listed for each heatsink were calculated by determining the rise over ambient temperatures at time of test. Information on Frostytech's test methodology is available here.

125w thermal test (°c) noise level (dba)
*heatsinks are ranked according to the 125w thermal test results column (rise over ambient temp.). low temperatures with low noise levels are considered best. for reference heatsinks with variable-speed fans, only the high speed (12v) fan test result is included in the comparison sheet; more detailed results reside in each specific heatsink review.

with a 125w heat load applied by the frostytech amd k8 synthetic thermal test platform, the glacialtech igloo 5751 pwm heatsink yields a rise above ambient temperature of 19.6°c at stock fan speed (50.6dba noise). with one of its two fans operating at reduced speed (38.5 dba noise) the glacialtech igloo 5751 pwm maintains a poor 40.4°c temperature over ambient.

at full speed the igloo 5751pwm is about 3°c cooler performing than the original igloo 5750pwm model, and quieter too. unfortunately unbalanced airflow does what it often does by creating dramatically poorer performance at reduced fan speeds (40.4°c vs 26.3°c). we'll hold off on our conclusions until the results for Intel LGA775 version of FrostyTech's synthetic thermal test platform are in. That's next!
