Silverstone Nitrogon NT03 CPU Fan Review

With the SilverStone NT03 being designed largely for HTPC (Home Theatre PC) purposes; a silent system is necessary when it comes to the computing needs. Unfortunately, when using two of these 60mm fans that are both pushing out 26.9dBA, we felt that it could have been quieter for our tastes but it managed to get the job done and it carried out its job well. On the other hand, for those seeking a quiet system they can simply drop the supplied voltage to the fans or use a single fan to push the air through the heatsink.

In addition to its competitive cooling performance, the NT03 is composed of pure copper as well as all of the attached components to the heatsink are composed of metal rather than plastic, which also looked very attractive. …Even though this may not be the quietest CPU heatsink on the market, it is compatible with nearly all of the major CPU sockets at this time, and offered the competitive level of performance we have come to expect from SilverStone Technology
