Do new cpu coolers ever stop coming out? Seems like every week we have a new one and with something unique. You'd think enough is enough but heck in todays heatsink market you have to be unique if you want to get the attention of buyers and sell your merchandise. But along with being unique it must be good, and of course that means cooling very good because in this day and age many have these blazin' AMD cpu's. This will be the second Coolermaster heatsink we've reviewed here at PC Abusers, the other being the HCC-002 and that one is no slouch at all. This new "top-of-the-line" one is supplied to us by the good people at Crazy PC

And what makes this one unique? As you've no doubt noticed it's those heatpipes you see extending from the side of the heatsink. And they curv downward and go through the solid copper bottom. The idea is to help provide quicker heat removal towards the top where the air from the fan is more powerful and help to cool that heat down therefore making for an even cooler cpu core. In theory.
