ARCTIC i30 Heatsink Review

Initially this heatsink was launched to tame the heat producing mosters on the Socket 2011 platform. Unfortunately a hickup prevented that platform being used for this review.

Lucky enough, Intel decided to make a new heat producing monster. The Ivy Bridge platform. These chips are known to run very hot even at stock settings. So will the Arctic i30 be up to the task? Lets go and find out.
