Anyone heard of a Hedgehog238M?

[Kryten]

It "apparently" is supposed to be 3C cooler @ idle and 3C cooler @ full load than either the FOP38 or the Alpha Pal 6035.
Anyone ever heard of them or tried them?

HEDGEHOG? 238?

does this have anything to do with a hairy porn star and how much he weighs?

the hog is on my brother`s pc (1ghz 266 @1100 47C ) i think that his temps are high because he has his box in a closed area in his computer desk

i switched to a swiftech 462 which ran my 1 ghz tbird at 35-37c and my 1.2 tbird at 41-43 c dam fine fan ;D

Closed area certainly won't help the temps...
hmmm from the 47c i'm not convinced by there claim maybe I should stick with the known brand...
just out of curiousity Kat did you ever try sucking through the heat sink with the hedgehog?

the delta on the hedgehog is designed to pull air through the fin`s that is why it comes with a shroud ;D

Thanks for your input kat I am still in 2 minds whether I should go with the (Alpha6035 or pep) or the hedgehog the hog is far cheaper especially when your talking $1A = 48centsUS
