Advanced Thermal Solutions offers, as one might imagine, a variety of handy thermal dissipation options for your equipment. One such option is ATS-LQHS-84025-C1-R0, a liquid-assisted heat sink meant for Serious Business heat dissipation. We’ve had some questions recently on whether bent fins constitute a damaged or defective product?
Minor bends in some fins don’t constitute damaged product. This doesn’t generally affect functionality. While there’s no definitive guide available for what crosses the line from minor incidental bends into legitimate damage, you can generally assume that bends which don’t contact other fins are fine, and bends which don’t significantly obstruct airflow will not be an issue.
