Accessories Continued:

X-Plate X-Plate

To support such a massive heatsink Thermalright has included “X-Plate.” As the name suggests the plate is black in color and is shaped like an “X.” The X-Plate is screwed underneath the motherboard to better balance the weight of the heatsink on the processor.

Screws Clips

Screws and clips for Intel Pentium 4 processors were included in the package for hassle-free installation.

HSF Examination:

Fine soldering techniques were used to solder three large heatpipes. Weighing around 570g, the SP-94 is certainly one of the heaviest heatsinks from Thermalright. Due to the use of solid copper being used by all Thermalright heatsinks, weight is one of the negative factors.
