XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 Opinions?

[AjFreimuth]

Just ordered one of these the online reviews I read seemed pretty good.

Will be using it on my X2 5200+ Windsor core for now and then my X2 7750 when I order that in a few weeks.

More than enough for any dual core. Not quite as good as a TRUE on high clocked quads, but holds its own.

Cool yeah right now I have my 5200+ OC'd to 3.0ghz with the stock cooler. Running mid/upper 30's idle and high 50's under load.

Edit: had it up to 3.2ghz but temps got alittle crazy for me mid 60's under load. So I backed it down till i get that new Heatsink/fan.

Very good, I got one.

I have one as well, and it is an excellent cooler. It copes very well with my 3.8GHz Q9550 running at full load 24/7.

Mine is cooling a q9650 @ 4.0 ghz... 35C.

Idle, maybe. Certainly not load.

Idle, maybe. Certainly not load.

Doubtful that that is the actual idle temp as well, since the Yorkfield DTSes are not accurate to a useful degree below 50C.

Keeps my 3GHz Q6600 @ 35c idle, 50c max during x264 encoding, even using the clips. (which btw I don't mind at all)

 

[Core2-D2]

Idle, maybe. Certainly not load.

53C Prime95.

Check it with Lin Pack/IntelBurnTest/LinX

Um, no thanks.

Even with the pushpins, my Q6600 hardly ever hits 55c with F@H maxing all 4 cores out. It's an awesome cooler, especially for the price.

 

[AjFreimuth]

Cool thanks everyone for the input.

I'm running >50C with Prime95 at the moment with pushpins (I set the tjmax to 100C).
