Replaced the aluminum core heatsinks on three i3-4360 processors with these copper core units. They dissipate heat much better and should come standard instead of the cheaper aluminum ones. The three i3-4360s were installed in HTPCs built for xmas gifts and are not intended for taxing applications such as high level games, video editing, etc. Under a normal load of watching videos or browsing, the CPU temp is in the 27-34C range. This is a good low-cost upgrade to guard against excessive CPU temps, but Intel should not be so chintzy and just ship copper core heatsinks across the board.

My 54 watt G4560 came with an all aluminum cooler of the same size but I wanted this one due to the copper core and low profile. I'm using a small case and replacing the all aluminum with this copper core cooler my max temps dropped from 65C to 60C. Idle temps were unchanged at 32-34.

Got this cooler cheap and installed it within seconds on my Asus board with an i5. So far temps are in the 30-35° range at idle and on rare occasions I've seen 60° but only after prolonged 100% load on the cpu. Overall I would definitely recommend this cooler of you plan on just running a stock pc. It's well worth the low price and works better than even some of the aftermarket coolers at this price range.

Since this is the factory supplied cooling solution it fits perfectly and keeps my Pentium 4560 running well within temp specs Was easy to attached to motherboard after a quick youtube lesson and is easy to remove as well 4 pin fan header allows for temp readings Mine has the copper core for better dissapation If you do not plan on overclocking, the Intel stock fan should be more than sufficient

So the one I used before, the aluminum heatsink did about 5C worst than the one with the copper slug, the TDP of that processor is 88W the stock aluminum has a tdp of 66-88w (estimate) but overclocking is a no-go, with the copper slug heatsink I was able to push a stable 4GHz with a idle of 40-50C and a maximum of 75-86C Added another fan on top of the heatsink with a cone to improve air flow and managed a stable 70-80C. (Of course I did undervolt to decrease the temperature.)
