At one time, not so long ago, you could go to any PC Hardware website and see a lot of reviews regarding third party CPU Heatsinks and Fans. That trend has however died down in recent years. Not that their isn't any, just that the number has dropped significantly. Heatsinks for CPU cooling started as passive, then moved to active as the heat generated by the latest processors rose. Time went on, speeds of CPU's increased and so did the performance of coolers to compensate. Aluminium gave way to copper, and hybrid units began to appear. Differing designs, larger fans, higher quality manufacture, a greater surface area, all became the norm with the expected next iteration of heatsinks as CPU speeds and heat output rose. There was an obvious need for new designs, a market for third party cooling, even basic cooling.
