I had a system builder make fun of my PC Power and Cooling Z1-D HSF today, (which is a huge chunk of zinc, I believe) and wanted to swap it out with their thinner lighter generic one (at no cost)...
The PC Power one has a single curled wire connector, and the generic has a spring clip.
Just curious which should be better. I'm not sure if the generic is AMD approved, but I also found out today that "technically" the PC Power one is not either, although PC Power stated that AMD uses theirs all the time in house. (Not sure I believe them anymore). Although I've used PC Power & Cooling stuff for years, and they do have lots of good products.
Which one would you guys use?? The PC Power one is much heaver, with a slightly smaller fan. I'm not sure about which to use, but I can't spend any more money!
Thanks,
