Alpha PEP66T

The PEP66T is an improved version of Alpha's well-known PEP66, which we reviewed some months ago. The differences between PEP66 and PEP66T are the base plate and the fan. The PEP66T is compatible both with Socket A and Socket 370 CPUs.


 


Copper inlays aren't anything special anymore - but Alpha was the first manufacturer to use this technology.

Performance

The PEP66T's performance is very good. Equipped with the standard 60x60x10mm Delta fan, it provides a good compromise between  performance and noise, and it fits all motherboards.

With a 7000rpm Delta fan (used, for example, on the Global WIN FOP38), the PEP66T's performance is even better; in this configuration, it is only outperformed by the huge Swiftech MC462. However, it does not fit some Socket A motherboards when used with a 60x60x25mm fan; in particular, it is incompatible with the Abit KT7. It fits the Asus A7V, though.

Installation

Installation is straightforward; the cooler is installed using a wire clip. Due to the high pressure the clip provides, it is a little hard to install. But with a little patience, this shouldn't be a problem. If the cooler is to be used with an Intel CPU, additional spacers (that are included) must be used.
