Fanner/Spire 5E34B3-H

The 5E34B3-H follows Spire's tradition of model names that are impossible to remember. It is smaller the Spire 5T061B1H3R, but features a copper inlay.

Installation and clip

The Spire cooler comes with a standard clip, which uses only two of the Socket's pegs. Installation is easy; a screwdriver is required.

Performance and noise, conclusion

A small heatsink, a copper inlay that has a very poor finish and isn't well embedded into the heatsink, plus a fan that's small and rather noisy - this is not the receipe for making a good heatsink. We recommend to stay away from this model - especially considering that the same manufacturer makes a cooler that is both quieter and more efficient.
