AeroFlow CPU Cooling Fan ~~ VA4-C7040

"The Vantec AeroFlow VP4-C7040 combination of using the Y.S.Tech TMD fan with its superior air flow over conventional heatsink fans and the ingenious heatsinks fin layout Vantec have designed a winner."

" The AreoFlow performs admirably, noise levels are acceptable and nothing I like better is a quiet system."

February 1, 2003
" This thing is a godsend; by far the best heatsink fan in my possession. Vantec has simply outdone themselves, going above and beyond to create something truly unique."

"There's an awful lot to like about this cooler, great design, innovative fan, incredible clip, and for the cooling capacity it is very quiet."
~~ www.overclockerdcafe.com
January 21, 2003
"All in all, the AeroFlow is a very good cooler. It does the job it was made to do (cool the CPU) quite well, and it wasn't very loud either."
~~ www.extensiontech.net
January 13, 2003
"The test results were excellent. It gets the job done amazingly quietly while weighing in at just shy of 400 grams. This places the VA4-C7040 among the best of the aluminum/ copper coolers."

"The Vantec Aeroflows are simply amazing. The great built and quality of the Aeroflows make the heat sink a definite buy."
~~ www.ocaddiction.com
December 29, 2002
"The new heatsink design looks impressive and performs it's job very well. The Tip Magnetic Driving fan adds to the quality of the overall design and performance making the AeroFlow quite possibly the quietest CPU cooler of this caliber on the market. Overall, the Vantec AeroFlow is an outstanding product"

December 11, 2002
"The Vantec performed on par with some copper heatsinks without the weight. This is an excellent product, as it is machined and lapped very well. It is very sturdy, yet very light"
~~www.thinkcomputers.org
December 2, 2002
"Its default temps are very cool and even with moderate overclocking it does very well. Its very cool looking with the TMD fan on it. Its quiet and cools damn good!"
~~www.pcabusers.com
December 2, 2002
"Vantec engineered an interesting technology (read: Aeroflow) that manages to work on both platforms. If you're in need of a nice cooler, without breaking the bank, this is one to watch."

"The Vantec AeroFlow coolers are designed to fit both Socket 478 and 462 motherboards and are premium products for maximum air cooling. Also, these coolers use a great heatsink and the Tip Magnetic Driving fan which translates into quiet operation and excellent performance."

"Vantec's Engineer's really one-upped the competition this time with an economical, quiet, high performance HSF. I emphatically recommend this HSF, and would gladly pit this unit up against any competing air-cooled solution on the market, based on the price/performance ratio."

"If you want a TMD-fanned cooler with solid performance, the VA4-C7040 is a perfectly good one."
~~www.dansdata.com
November 14, 2002
"People are going to buy this cooler just for the neat edge-motor fan, but they'll get good performance into the bargain."
~~www.dansdata.com
November 11, 2002
"Get an Aeroflow fast, before they sell out. =) The low noise level itself is worth the investment. The added bonus of remarkable cooling capabilities makes this a no-brainer purchase."

"At the risk of sounding like a fan-boy, Vantec have themselves one heck of a cooler. It's very well designed, from its copper core placement, to its windtunnel effect, to it's mounting mechanism. The matchup with the TMD Fan seems to be a good idea, as its cooling properties seem to be a perfect match with the heatsink."

"The VP4-C7040 is definitely a good performing heatsink, and if your looking to do any kind of overclocking, or just want to keep your CPU at a good
temperature, this is definitely something you might want to look into." "This product is highly recommended by VR-Zone!"
~~www.VR-Zone.com

"The Aeroflow combines a winning heatsink design where exhaust air is driven out from the the heatsink at the base, and where a copper core helps to move thermal energy more efficiently."
~~www.frostytech.com
"Vantec Aeroflow VP4C7040 has better thermal performance. The combination of a TMD fan, a copper core, and the orientation of the fins come together"
~~www.frostytech.com
October 30, 2002
"The Aeroflow heat sink design, copper core and Tip-Magnetic Driving (TMD) fan opens up a whole new class of heat sinks and Vantec is there to lead the way."
~~www.hitechmods.com
October 28, 2002
"By combining the T.M.D Fan and AeroFlow Heatsink, Vantec has come up with one of the highest quality cooling devices I have ever tested. Not only does this allow the fan to move more air at slower fan speed but it enables the air stream to reach the central heat source much more directly. High performance and quiet operation."

"Vantec's Aeroflow is a very competitive P 4 cooling solution; especially note acceptable fan noise. Overall, an excellent balance between noise and performance." ~~www.overclockers.com
October 18, 2002
"Vantec have a great innovative product here. They always seem to push the envelope as far as PC cooling goes. The TMD fan not only performs well but looks great with its chrome surround and propeller like blades." ~~ www.Ascully.com
October 12, 2002
"The Aeroflow CPU Cooler becomes another valuable addition to Vantec's increasing line of quality heatsinks. The unit is visually striking to look at, and the TMD fan's low profile allows for a much larger profiled heatsink to be included without becoming overly bulky. An excellent contact area protected by a plastic coating until installation ensures a near perfect union between the heatsink and CPU."

"An copper core - aluminum base heatsink with a very secure clip that requires a screwdriver to mount. Vantec's Aeroflow is a very competitive Socket A cooling solution."
~~ www.overclockers.com
October 8, 2002
"The AeroFlow caught my eye when I opened the box. Its performance proves that you really can get good performance out of a relatively quiet heatsink. The TMD fan is a revolution on its own, and the actual design of the AreoFlow is attractive both in looks and performance. Bravo Vantec, your new Heatsink gets top marks from me."

"I honestly think Vantec did a great job trying to reproduce the 'ThermalEngine' technology heatsink. It's taken notes on the flaws of the two I've mentioned, and I'm very happy to see someone fix what was off: the centering of the core."

"This new technology/product is a real performance-killer, it managed to outperform any other HSF I tested so far.... This is one of those products you can't go wrong with: low price, nice design and real powerful. People who run Intel should not be disappointed because this HSF is also available for P4-Platforms."

"With the TMD cooling fan, the Vantec VA4-7040 is the quietest cooler in it's class. Actually, nothing even comes close! It is hard to imagine that an aluminum heatsink could perform just as good as a solid copper heatsinks but with less noise! With good performance and very little sound, it's hard not to stand behind this product."
