 Today on my video blog we will be continuing our theme of floral backdrops for unboxings, which is Quite tasteless, but effective nonetheless so today I'm going to be unboxing the Prolima tech mega halums for no particular reason other than I've heard good things about it I wanted to have a look at it, and I was walking around in the warehouse And I saw it so I grabbed it so that's that's the that's the whole reason for it So why don't we see what it says on the box so this is compatible with 775 and 11 or 1366 pardon me and? That's pretty much all it says always 790 grams holy cow so that's well over a pound attached to your CPU socket now Hopefully it has a pretty impressive retention mechanism, and I'm kind of assuming it does, but we'll find out soon enough, okay? So first thing you're going to find when you open up the box is your user manual Which shows you everything it's supposed to come with and it labels everything so it comes with a heatsink a couple Backplates an aluminum strip adapter double end stud with not screw nut aluminum mounting plate screw loaded, okay? You can probably read that because of some thermal compound as well and here are your installation instructions So let's see step one is install the backplate and put the screws in and then step two supply thermal paste That's pretty straightforward. Well. We'll try and figure it out as we take this thing out here, so why don't we see what's included first? if I could Get this out, then I'd be able to have a pretty good look at it um Okay, well, I think you're supposed to take the heatsink out first I'm just going to grab that and then well yeah here we go so you lift this up to get at the accessories and Here they are so See Inside here we will find more plastic bags. Oh there we go so first There's a proline attack thermal compound looks an awful lot like Arctic cooling mx-2 Which it probably is rebranded and then we've got a couple of thumb screws, okay? Let's Springs then we have four thumb nuts with no springs Then we have two backplates. This is a 775 backplate, and this is a 1366 backplate and then we have What are these? These must be the aluminum mounting strip adapters awesome. Not sure exactly how we use those and then these are the double-ended thumb Wow, I guess they'd be screws, so why don't we take out the heat sink itself and have a look? I'm actually not going to attempt to figure out the mounting mechanism on camera because I'm probably just going to end up embarrassing myself If I try and do that, but I just wanted to have a look at the construction of this unit Okay, so as we pull it out We can see it's a very very shiny heat sink and there's actually a foam spacer in between two distinctly different Haves of the unit here, so you can see that it's quite a dense fin arrangement So you're going to need a fan with that generates decent static pressure in order to best take advantage of this particular heat sink then on the bottom here, you can see these are the Are those the adapters for these I can't even tell no not going to try Let's have a look at the bottom of the heat sink, so I'm just going to do the obligatory Finger shot where I hold my finger here, and you have a look at the reflectiveness It is clearly not flat although it is quite polished But what it does appear to have is a bow to it So you're going to want to mount a heat sink like this nice and tight in order to take advantage of the incredible Mounting pressure you can get with a bowed base that means it comes out like this Okay, so then this is six heat pipes in total all of which make contact quite close to the base of the heat sink And thank you for checking out my video blog on the unboxing of the Prolimatech mega halums
