    Pros & Cons

    Pros

    • Cheap
    • Installation is easy
    • Cooling is upper-par

    Cons

    • Hard to unclip

    Conclusion

    So is the Thermoengine worth the $27 (Here). You bet it is, the pros on this heatsink far outweigh the cons and as for the controversy. The solid-core one seems to be the ones for sale today in all the shops but if you ask around, you might be able to find a hollow-core version. I can safely say that the solid core version works really well too but the temperature varies by about 1C hotter than the hollow-core version, nothing a nice Delta fan can't change. The great cooling capabilities of the Thermoengine combined with the great TIM and easy installation make this a winner and a good replacement for my Alpha. We like to say thanks to our friends at Azzo.com for lending us this unit and as far as we know, they have the best prices on the Thermoengine and shipping isn't a killer either so check them out here.
