Frostytech are back with another heatsink review for you today. This time around it is the SilenX iXtrema heatsink, yet another CPU cooler whose heatpipes make direct contact with the core of the processor below. Judging by the test results Frostytech have seen, it's a wonder the Thermalright, Coolermaster, Thermaltake and Zalman haven't already followed suite with similar coolers.

"Looking for a new heatsink that works on either Intel or AMD processors? Good, say 'hello' to one of the new class of direct heatpipe contact heatsinks hitting the streets - the SilenX iXtrema IXC-120HA2. The SilenX iXtrema IXC-120HA2 heatsink features exposed heatpipes on the bottom which give it a serious advantage in the thermal tests."
