Scribble,

Which Conrad heatsinks did you choose? I'm new to DIY and I want to make sure I get the right ones for the job since I'm not buying local and I don't want the hassles of a return.

There's a guy in USA currently having some heatsinks made for very reasonable cost. They will have 2" to 2-1/2" fins and be 10"-12" inch width extrusion and will cut to any length desired. He's been taking questions and suggestion for a few weeks now and hopefully will have them produced over the next month or so.

He's been an ebay seller for a few years now and seems to have a good reputation. So if you can hang in there something is coming soon.

cviller,

Thanks. I've checked around to see if I can find an adequate source here in the USA. I haven't had much luck unless I want to buy a more than a couple of meters of extrusion, which I don't really want to do.

I'll do some shopping and post my finds to be sure I get the right pair for the job.

Sonidos, if you post links to the sinks you plan on buying, I or someone else here might be able to tell you if it is sufficient.

The main ones im planning on trying are here, the MF35-151.5 with a Thermal Resistance
C/Watt for 80 °C rise of 0.21 degree's C.

The other ones here with a 120mm fan. MF18-151.5 @ Thermal Resistance Forced Convection 6.4 l/s (13.5 cfm)C/W of 0.13 degree's C OR Thermal Resistance Forced Convection 12.7 l/s (27 cfm)C/W of 0.11 degree's C.

Would the natural convection MF35's do it? im pretty sure forced convection MF18's would yeah?


Thanks for your time!
