It’s a quality heatsink, and installation is easy. I found it helpful to practice placing it a couple times before exposing the adhesive and “doing it live”. Recommended!

Good quality. Easy to apply. Gets very warm when running some of the bigger cores like AO486 so seems to be pulling a lot of heat away from the FPGA chip. I had occasional crashes with AO486 previously but it’s been stable since adding this heatsink.

Beautiful little thing, and straightforward to install. Can only assume it’s doing a great job!

Glad I got this one over the non copper heatsinks. Easy to install and gets the job done.

This heatsink is great. It’s well-made, and you don’t get much better than solid copper for a heatsink. I don’t have the hardware to measure temperatures on the FPGA before and after, but with how warm it gets while the DE10 Nano is on, it’s definitely wicking away a lot of heat.
