The FrostyTech reveiw can be found here, but I was looking to see if anyone here on the [H] had any experience with this heatsink.
I have specific reasons for looking at this heatsink, but basically it is because of bad airflow and no exhaust fans, yet.
The current fan is close to the powersupply and does not leave much room for fresh air above the fan, and with no exhaust is circlulates the hot air. I am replacing an Asus VIA 266a motherboard / Pally 2000+ combo with an Abit nForce2 AN7 / 35w Athlon mobile combo. If my measurements are right this heatsink should just have enough clearance and be able to push the hot air right into the intake vents of the powersupply. I can also open up the PSU some to aid in removing heat from the fins.
Also I am going to cut two 60mm holes in the rear for exhaust so that should help some. The case in question is the Enlight EN-7101AX.
