nMediaPC is a company that specializes in HTPC’s and their newest line of performance heat sinks, dubbed “Icetank”, bears this influence.  nMediaPC is a newcomer on the after market heat sink scene, but it’s low profile and sleek design already set it apart from the competition.  The copper and aluminum fins give it the appearance of having a racing stripe.  However, will this design allow it to race past the competition or will it get left in the dust?

Specifications

Here are the specs for the Icetank Cooler as taken from the product page at NMEDIAPC's website:

Media Center PC or Home Theater PC must be "Cool & Quiet". So, to offer an integrated solution, we bring in the CPU Cooling series.

In term of fan "CPU Cooling", there are three choices in the market. Air Cooling; Heatpipe Cooling and Liquid Cooling. Liquid cooling is not mature enough to be widely adopted, including safety and pricing considerations. So, we focus on the other two choices.

In HTPC world, size does matter. So, our cooler must be living in a compact environment, but performing. We develop two top of the line HTPC Coolers base on the following aspects:

Highlights
- 4 heatpipes design + Extra aluminum “Northbridge” design base
- Innovative easy clip for easy installation
- Light weight
- Fit most of the case
- Fan Speed Controller is included on a PCI bracket
