I attached a second exhaust valve to this cooler, oddly enough it works, because with one fan 3-4 degrees more! As a result, Q9650 / 1.35V / 4GHz = t 35 in idle, no higher than 62 under load and at the same time the fan speed is 1000 rpm. It's not very bad in my opinion. In general, there are coolers that are not worse, for example, from Scythe, but again they are more expensive.
