Man, Just got
out of the shower. WHERE’S MY HAIRDRYER! Wait, that’s not a hairdryer, just
sounds like one. :) Today we take a look at Globalwin's newest heatsink,
designed for Socket A cooling, the WBK38.
Everyone has
heard how the FOP38 by Global Win kicks ass as the best value for a heat sink.
I was about to order one when Cecilia (thanks yet again) from Global Win
emailed saying that she was going to send me some luving in the form of the
WBK38. The WBK38 is the replacement for the FOP38. Everyone has heard about
how the FOP38 sounds like an hairdryer at speed. Did Global do anything to fix
this or will it drive you crazy while cooling your CPU to new levels? More
important is can the WBK38 live up to the legacy of the FOP38?
