If you've been around the PC aftermarket very long, the SilverStone brand name should sound very familiar. They've been in the business for a long time and have a reputation for quality products. They've sent us their new NT06 Evolution CPU cooler for evaluation; an update of the Nitrogon NT01 cooler from a few years ago. SilverStone has doubled the cooling area and radically changed the design to make it more “board-friendly” on modern platforms. With five sintered powder heatpipes and the densely-packed aluminum fins, SilverStone promises great things with regard to the NT06 Evolution. To quote from the SilverStone website, “The Nitrogon NT06-E was designed and created with one single purpose, to cool the hottest CPUs in the world.” We'll take it for a test drive and see how it performs.
