Lazada Unboxing – DeepCool Ice Edge Fs V2.0 Heatsink

A heatsink is a thermally conductive metal device designed to absorb and disperse heat away from a high-temperature object such as a computer processor. Usually, heatsinks are outfitted with built-in fans to help keep both the CPU and the heatsink at an appropriate temperature. Heatsinks are made out of metal, such as a copper or aluminum alloy, and are attached to the processor. Most heatsinks have fins, thin slices of metal connected to the base of the heatsink, which helps spread heat over a large area.

A computer processor works at a very fast pace, generating a lot of heat. If a processor is overheated and does not have a heatsink, the CPU can be damaged. The computer may be dysfunctional and not able to complete a POST (power on self-test). If a POST fails, nothing will appear on the screen and the computer speakers may produce only a series of beeps.

To prevent overheating, the heatsink dissipates heat from the processor. To transfer heat from the processor to the heatsink, there must be an adequate amount of surface area between the two. This is done by the use of a heatsink compound (also called thermal paste), which is lightly spread over the surface. However, the too much thermal paste will insulate the CPU instead of cooling it.

As I always make videos and CPU Load is always on the use when I render video even when you just making a RAM preview using after effect. So, I did save up money just to buy this Cheap yet Frosty Cool product from Lazada. At first, I did try to target the semi-premium CPU heatsink yet after some time of research, I found out that the temperature difference between the high-value heatsink and regular ones are not that big of a deal. So I decided to buy the regular most fancy one.

Equipped with multiple clips to support Intel LGA1155, 1156, 775 and AMD AM4, AM3, AM2+, AM2, K8. 2 sintered metal powder heat pipes directly contacting the CPU surface for removing heat and eliminating chances of overheating. Specialized aluminum heatsink construction for efficient heat dissipation. TPE fan housing designed to absorb operating vibration and reduce fan noise. AMD AM4 Ready.
