Alpha PEP66U with Sanyo Denki fans

Here's the PEP66U with Sanyo Denki fans, as Alpha ships it:

The fan

The fans are the same as the ones used on the PAL6035CM60/Sanyo Denki, so all comments made regarding those also apply to this combo.

Installation

Like all Alpha heatsinks, the PEP66 comes in disassembled form (but with a small instruction booklet). The spring wire clip is good - easy to install and uninstall.

Conclusion

This unit is the top choice if you plan to use a "Slotket" for your PPGA CPU. The PEP66CM60 is significantly quieter than the PEP66 with YS Tech fans, and still provides almost the same cooling performance. This cooler, however, is the most expensive one in this comparison.

Fans: One 60x25mm Sanyo Denki Fan rpm (measured): 3750 Weight: 350g Height: 62mm DIMM slots blocked on P3B-F: 1 Price: $37.10
Advantages
excellent cooling performance not very loud
Disadvantages
very high price not recommended for socket motherboards (only for Slot 1 boards with Slotket)
