Review on ⚙️ DGZZI Aluminum Heatsink 40x40x11mm Silicone: Optimal Thermal Cooling Solution for Electronics by David Elam

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not to be used with Peltier modules and probably not to be used with your processor

Try to use this to get the Peltier Module together with a 12V fan to cool the same size and it failed miserably. It's my fault for underestimating the size of heatsink I would need for this application as I'm new to Peltier modules and heatsinks. This assumes that this heatsink will be used for processors that can also generate a lot of heat, and this heatsink cannot dissipate very much heat without the help of a really powerful fan. So I'm not saying it can't work for CPUs as I haven't tried it, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it as it can't handle the heat of a 100% used CPU.

Pros
  • Kit contains: 2 x 40 x 40 x 11mm heatsinks + 2 x 3M silicone thermal pads
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options
