Faced with some very strong high performance competition the Ajigo SF017011 comes in initially towards the lower end of the scale. There are not that many 60mm heatsinks on this list of reference heatsinks so things should be kept in scale. The performance level appears to be average, but we will have to see what the rise above ambient results tell us first before we make our final conclusions.

The final performance specs of the Ajigo SF017011 are pretty good for a 60mm heatsink with a 60mm fan. The SF017011 manages to outperform some larger and heavier all copper heatsinks, but can't quite muster the cooling levels to move pass the 50 degree rise above ambient level in our test. Still, for a relative new comer to the consumer cooling market, Ajigo have created a surprisingly robust little heatsink.

There is always room for improvement, and it would be interesting to see of those closely spaced 0.3mm thick fins with the square tips are actually causing a small drop in performance.

Bottom line, the Ajigo SF017011 is an average performing heatsink that should be good for non-overclocked Athlon XP processors (and the compact size is a big bonus). Ajigo claim that it can be used with overclocked chips but I think this is a bit beyond the realistic levels for this heatsink, considering the overclocked temperatures most performance users would be ideally looking for.
