New Tests: Five Heatsinks

To kick off our latest round of heatsink tests, we decided to look at the default option, supplied by Intel with all of its new processors.

Disappointingly, it only managed to score a single star, suggesting you might want to have a look at some of our other models.

On test today is the excellent Thermalright IFX-14, along with three heatsinks from Zalman's 'Computer Noise Prevention System' line.

Unfortunately, neither the CNPS 8700 NT, the CNPS 9300 AT nor the CNPS 9700 NT is particularly quiet!
