CPU Heatsink is the most important CPU cooler parts, CPU heatsink usually come with fan for better temperature and to ensure your CPU stays cool and keep on best performance. Before we buy this CPU part, we must to know what is the meaning of CPU Heatsink or also just called CPU cooler, So this time, let see more closer about CPU heatsink design.

CPU Heatsink - Intel stock cpu cooler

Are you have seen the CPU heatsink form? the Heatsink usually made of aluminum, it's a good medium to transfer the CPU heat. The Heatsink picture above is sample of Intel processor stock cooler, let see the another CPU heatsink form.

It's another aftermarket CPU Heatsink

Cooler Master CPU Heatsink

Asus Triton 88 CPU Heatsink

It's more CPU Heatsink explanation from Wikipedia :

"A heat sink is an object that transfers thermal energy from a higher temperature to a lower temperature fluid medium. The fluid medium is frequently air, but can also be water or in the case of heat exchangers, refrigerants and oil. If the fluid medium is water, the 'heat sink' is frequently called a cold plate."

"A heat sink is a term for a component or assembly that transfers heat generated within a solid material to a fluid medium, such as air or a liquid."

There are a lot of CPU Heatsink (also named CPU cooler) type, such as liquid CPU cooler, air CPU cooler, silent CPU cooler, etc. Here is some good tips before you choose a CPU heatsink for your computer system :

- High heatsink surface
- Good aerodynamics
- Good thermal transfer within the heatsink
- Perfect flatness of the contact area
- Good mounting method
