Heat Sink:
“To cool a system in which processor heat problem you can buy a special attachment for the CPU chip called a heat sink.”
When a computer system work, its processor consume power, therefore processor generate heat and this heat causes many problems for used to absorb heat on to the processor chip. Heat sink is made of a special metal, which carry heat away from the processor, data into fins. Fins that expose heat to moving air.
Types of Heat Sink:
There are two types of heat sink:
Passive Heat Sink
Active Heat Sink
Passive Heat Sink:
The passive heat sinks for the socket processor showing a various attachment method and has no fan built into them.
Active Heat Sink:
The active heat sink for the processor have fan built into them.
Heat and Cooling Problems:
The higher speed processors typically consume more power and therefore generate more heat the processor usually the single most power hungry chip in s system and most situations. The fan inside your computer case might not be capable of handling the load without some help.
