Well, I'm in the middle of retesting it. But so far, it's more than holding it's own, against both the D14 and the D15. I'm more than a bit shocked, since this heatsink is supposed to be 2-3c behind them. But my late-2009 MegaH is cooling better than my early 2010 D14 and my 2014 D15. We'll see some more when I return to testing. But that twin-1200 rpm setup sounds great.

If you want to see a really . . . cool example of what twin Yates can do on a Megahalems, look here (this was on June 2010, on my second case, so it was a tad rough).
