P4 AVC Sunflower $19 shipped

[CheeLew]

The CPU-Cool 478 from PC Power & Cooling seems to be an OEM sunflower cooler.
Here's the link.

PC Power & Cooling sells it direct for $19 shipped

If this really is a sunflower, it's $10 cheaper than the closest price I can find...

 

[CheeLew]

The description says die-cast aluminum w/ copper core.
And it lists the same 70mm 33CFM fan.

the first picture is what a AVC sunflower looks like exactly cause thats what i have.

for 19.00 it is a good deal i think i paid 40 something shipped for mine.

Just a warning...the Sunflower produces noticeably more noise than the stock Intel heatsink. If this is the real Sunflower, it would allow you to cool a bit better though...and perhaps clock your P4 a bit higher.

has anyone that ordered gotten theirs yet?

i ordered awhile ago.. but havent gotten it yet

 

[ogn]

Just to let you know, this is a AVC Sunflower. I ordered two from them about a week ago. Got it in a few days (I'm live in the same city, actually right down the street). Copper core and says AVC on the fan.

 

[RADON]

I ordered one. I'm gonna compare results with the Swiftech 478 I'm using now.

 

[tigerbait]

how much better is this than the retail HSF that come with the 1.6a?

<< how much better is this than the retail HSF that come with the 1.6a? >>



From my calculations, about $19 better.

 

[VTBigBear]

lol

yeah... $19 better

 

[leonowski]

wow great deal thank you. Just got in today! w0000T

 

[Jenova314]

i got a "Speeze" HSF from newegg when i ordered my XP 1500+, would this be better?

 

[EdipisReks]

Jenova314, the sunflower is for the socket 478 pentium IV, not for the athlon.

PC Power and Cooling is an EXCELLENT company! They make the best power supplies, but man they are expensive! :Q

Got mine and it sure looks like an AVC Sunflower to me. Came in a generic box but there is an AVC logo sticker on the top of it.

 

[rgowen]

So how much cooler are you guys getting from the stock HSF from Intel? Looks like I may have to order one of these for my setup that I plan to build.
