But make sure you dry it properly first before fitting it back again... By the time your heatsink corrodes, send it to the muzium... and buy another one... And dont forget to clean your mobo (not woth water la) your CPU (re-apply thermal compound), your GC... Clean everything la...

according to frostytech, it may not be as promising like it seems. http://www.frostytech.com/permalink.cfm?NewsID=71110QUOTE Should you buy the Xigmatek Dark Knight-S1283 heatsink over the vanilla HDT-S1283 version? I'd have to say no, every nickel plated heatsink Frostytech has tested has performed with a bit of a handicap compared to the pure aluminum, pure copper, uncoated heatsink model. Remember, aesthetics don't improve cooling performance one bit. btw, quote from the web and this is what the said about the dark night cooler This post has been edited by ham_revilo: Nov 8 2008, 02:02 AM
