The folks at Thermal Take do not stop when it comes
to heatsinks! They've got another slew of coolers available
for everybody. This time it is the extension on the Volcano
line of socket units. Two new models were just recently
released, the Volcano 5 and 6.
We'll be taking a look today at the Volcano 5, which
has no copper on it for once. Its pure aluminum and this unit is not on the loud side. Let's take a look at the
basic specifications:
- Heatsink Dimension: 80x60x65 mm
- Fan Dimension: 60x60x25 mm
- Fan Speed: 4550±10% RPM
- Air Flow: 32 CFM
- Noise Level: 31dBA
The unit is recommended for all AMD Athlon
1.5GHz+ and Intel PIII 1.13GHz & Tualatin up to 2.0GHz.
This unit does not have the usual high powered
7000rpm fans like the Dragon
Orb 3. So right off the bat, this did not seem like
the ideal heavy duty solution that some of you may be looking
for. It does however, have a slower ball bearing
fan which makes this one of their quietest solutions.
