This is the winner of this test in terms of performance. But this is not only due to its massive air flow created by the noisy Delta fan and due to the copper body, but also thanks to it's highly innovative micro fin design. This keeps the heatsink itself small while at the same time creating a very big surface for heat dissipation. A good contact area finish is another plus for this cooler.

Note that this Heatsink is weighs more than the maximum of 300g specified by AMD !

This is the brother of the DC1206BM-O, which placed second. The only difference is that a different fan was used. Note that despite it's considerably lower air flow it still scores only a little worse! Again, the contact area finish is good.

Basically the same as the DC1206BM-O, but this coolers heatsink is made from aluminium. Despite it's very low 195 grams of weight it is only surpassed by two other aluminium coolers by thermaltake - which both are almost double the weight and have much higher air flow. This leads to the conclusion that the Dynatron coolers are as good as they are mostly thanks to the unique micro fin design. An additional plus is that it comes shipped with a protective plastic cap over it's base.

On a side note, all Dynatron coolers feature the panther face shown below embossed to their body. Well, I like it :-)

Why this cooler, despite being bigger, made from copper, having a broad, good clip and having an even better, very smooth contact area finish than the DC1206BM-L scores exactly the same is still open to question.
