based on the only review:

Installed this the other day in my Antec Sonata. The socket orientation on the ASUS A8N was perfect so the cooler faces the rear 120mm fan. It was also easy to install. I didn't need to remove the mobo. At first I had the fan attached to the power supplies fan connector but it was too slow. The CPU temp went up to 90C. I put the fan on full blast and it went down to 50C so that's better. I think I'll try out the board's cpu fan controller to see how that works out.

I don't really think its much of a performer, 3 heat pipes and it doesn't seem to have much surface area for fins. IMO if it performed above average it would be well known.
