In this review we have tested the Pentalpha APSK 156 N2/GH Cooler and measured the temperature results with our test setup. Additionally you can listen to an embedded MP3 fan sound sample of the fan on the respective heatsink.

Size over all L/B/H +++ 60/60/70 mm The heatsink size isn’t bigger than the Sockel.
Cooling output +++ 27 CFM (~5600 rpm – * also with other fans available)
Noise level – 38 dB (A) Not so loud as the N2/GH version but not even very quiet. Listen to the sound:
Mounting +++ It’s very easy to mount this fan with a screwdriver.
Cooling results +++ The Pentalpha APSK 156 in combination with N2/GH Papst fan reached 42° C and 44°C at 1,9 Vcore
General impression +++ The Pentalpha APSK 156 heatsink is available in several fan combinations and it’s a good combi with the known N2/GH Papst fan. Mounting and de-mounting with a screwdriver is very easy and the aluminium heatsink without copper got very good cooling results. This fan is also fit for using with Peltier Element !
