Comment

Xigmatek HDT-S983 is the new improve version of HDT-S963 with bigger heat pipes (3 x 6mm to 3 x 8mm) and special fin design. At full load, HDT-S983 is 3 degree better than HDT-S963 and only 3 degree worse than HDT-S1283, but already able beat other 120mm monster such as Noctua NH-U12F, Thermalright Ultra 120 and any other 92mm coolers!
Due to the superior design, OCZ Vendetta also adapt the same design of HDT-S983. But performance of HDT-S983 still better than Vendetta by 1.8 degree!!

Using Arctic Cooling MX-2 thermal paste to achieve the best cooling result!
