NH-C12P
I was extremely surprised by the result of the NH-C12P. At low heat output, its performance may not be the leader of the pack but once the heat output has increased, its efficiency clearly shines above the other horizontal mounting heatsink (ThermalRight SI-128 that was used in the review). It even performs on par with the SilenX, which is a vertical heatsink that usually has a slightly better cooling than the horizontal heatsink. [...] We can see that Noctua really pays attention to detail when they design their cooler. It is the little details, such as the color manual, curved edges, and clearly labeled accessories, that put it above other manufacturers. Adding this to the excellent performance and six year warranty make the Noctua NH-C12P a winning combination. Given to the low height of the NH-C12P and quiet fan, it would make a great cooler for HTPC. Even if you plan to overclock your HTPC, this cooler will sure able to keep the CPU running quiet and cool while you are enjoying in your entertainments.
"NH-C12P is able to offer a great performance while keeping the noise level low with the included fan even at the highest RPM." (Victor Wu, Bjorn3d.com)
