Again we test this cooler with our idle
and full load combo. Our full load test includes running Distributed.net's
RC5 client and Mad
Onion's 3D Mark 2001 benchmark. We tested with the thermal
pad and with arctic silver. The tests are done at stock speed
and of course at overclock speeds. Here are the results of
this cooler, and some results compared with some other coolers we
have tested.

From the numbers, the Gladiator
combined with arctic silver proved to be the absolute best at
lowering our TBird down. Add the fact that this all copper
heatsink is under $30.00 and you have a great cooler on hand.
After flipping the fan around so it sucked the air out of the
heatsink, the results were even better!
Thanks to OCZ for providing us with this sample, a very
nice product.
