Fircuda ingot special edition is awesome no failures did have the fircuda without heatsink accidently peeled sticker lucky purchased a cheap accidental warrantly purchased special edition seems to function better with the ingot heatsink purchased a heat pipe cooler by Graugear is pure copper heat pipe aluminum heatsink didn't reckon much to the heatsink wasn't better than the special edition heatsink
