hey boys and girls this is Brian Ramirez again with TECA tomorrow here for you we've got another review this is the Swift tech Polaris 120 heatsink for your CPU well here we have for you the Swift tech Polaris 120 it's already set up on the test bench and we've had it running for some time now it's been doing prime95 and we have the AMD phenom 2 1090t processor that's a 6 core processor running at 3.2 gigahertz and right now it's currently running at about 38 degrees celsius and prime95 has been running for a good half hour almost 40 minutes now so you can see that this heat sink actually does a really good job keeping the processor cool even when it's running prime95 which stresses out the processor to its full extent does not run all that wobbly we do have running right now at maximum it runs anywhere from 750 to 2500 rpm depending on how you have it set up on the motherboard you can run it off of your motherboard header or if you want you can even plug it into a 12 volt molex connector that's entirely up to you personally if it were me I would definitely have this running off of the motherboard header that way you can ramp up a ramp ramp down the speed of the fan depending on what you're doing it does run a lot quieter when you have it running off the motherboard this has been the swiftech polaris 120 heatsink and fan one other thing that I have to mention is that this band comes this heatsink and fan comes in at about sixty dollars retail which for its price is actually really really good this is going to give you performance in the range of heat sinks that cost anywhere from fifteen to twenty dollars more so what you're getting is something that really comes in at a good price and is going to give you good value for your money thank you so much for watching don't forget to subscribe
