You mean, specifically showing the contact of the spreader sides with the IC/chip, right?

They did a good job designing a tight fit; can't move the chips within the spreaders at all ... and the thermal pads are *not* the adhesive variety ... more gelatinous or something ... not adhesive, though ... which I like.

My old mushkin heat spreaders had the same problem as that demonstrated by your HR-07 link ... they slid around in the heatspreader and were a pain press into the RAM slots because the chip would want to displace.

:up:

Thanks!

One more question, what is the material used on the black enclosure? Aluminum?

Aluminum ... yes.

In that case Im wondering if this would beat both the spirit and HR-07s

These look great and thx 4 the review. The only problem now is finding a place that sells this in Canada.

Seems like there aren't even many places in the states taht sell them.

Couldn't you mail order online? I'm sure there's some shops that ship to you.
