SilverStone NT06-PRO CPU Cooler
The SilverStone NT06-PRO is a very good cooler, with flexibility as the main highlight. It performed nicely in the suggested configuration (fan under the heatsink, blowing upwards), but you can mount it with the fan over the heatsink (gaining clearance under the heatsink, but increasing its total height), or even running it with two fans for maximum performance.

By Hardware Secrets onSilverStone has seized a near total victory with its Nitrogon Series NT06-Pro CPU air cooler. When compared to the Thermalright AXP-100, the SilverStone NT06-Pro offers more configuration options, better thermal performance at all levels tested, and is being sold for less. The only area the NT06-Pro did not win outright was our sound test and of course for a SFF system or HTPC system this may be a big point of contention.
By HardOCP onA recent look at ASRock's M8 compact barebones PC saw us undervolting our CPU in order to run stably, overclocked. This forced us to ask the question: how much cooling can we fit inside a slim enclosure? Eight heat sink vendors helped us find the answer....

O SilverStone NT06-PRO é um bom cooler, tendo a flexibilidade como maior atributo. Ele teve um bom desempenho em sua configuração sugerida (ventoinha embaixo do dissipador, soprando para cima), mas pode ainda ser montado com a ventoinha sobre o...
