Using the included 4-pin connector on the fan works well, providing your motherboard has the facility to use it – although you can still swap it for any 92mm of choice and take the performance hit. However, does the cost of an extra 92mm fan on top of this heatsink simply equate to a bigger heatsink altogether?
The attention to detail, like the rubber fan mounts and pitted fins, is excellent. In addition to its great build quality and because it's smaller than most heatsinks we’ve seen recently, it should easily fit more restrictive boards as well. It's a great replacement for the stock Intel heatsink but some might not be sure if it's worth £5 more than the Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 Pro which, at the same noise level, should perform fairly similarly to the Vendetta."
