Who takes the big pot ? (2)

Hey guys, thought I might as well do another one :thumbup:

This time is Vertical Vs Horizontal heat sinks or in other words:

----------------Thermaltake (http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/memory/ramsink.htm)--------------

http://www.thermaltake.com/images/coolers/memory/ramsink/1978a.gifhttp://www.thermaltake.com/images/coolers/memory/ramsink/1978b.gif

Vs

----------------Cooler Master (http://www.coolermaster.com/index.php?LT=english&Language_s=2&url_place=product&p_serial=CRC-U01&other_title=0)--------------

http://www.coolermaster.com/product_common_images/9cc89575e791e29fb4ae3383415a7bb5.jpg

Both of them

Made from Copper.
Comes with pre-taped thermal adhesive tape. (For easy install and secure the heat sink permanently)
Can mount on various types of chips: Ram/V-Ram/motherboard chip sets and more.

Comparison Chart :smartass:

As you can see the similarity is very much the same with both heat sinks, however one of them (Thermaltake) is made Horizontally and the other one (Cooler Master) is made vertically.

Which technique is best for the job ?

The short stripes and small heat sink - Thermaltake
OR
The long stripes and bigger heat sink- Cooler Master

You decide :thumbup: :rolleyes:

I doubt that makes any difference really. i cant see how.

[embracedeath]

Ya really doubt it makes much of a diffrence. I have the purple annodized ones.

[-Deadly-]

I have the Coolermaster ones all over my MoBo chips etc... but i don't use those for cooling my ram ;) I use PNY ram cooling kits http://www.firingsquad.com/products/hwproduct.asp/3563 These are great :thumbup:
