The SilenX EFZ-120HA4 heatsink is a full tower cooler, standing 151mm tall and weighing 836 grams. It ships with a single non-PWM 120mm SilenX Effizio Series Quiet Fan mounted to the aluminum fin tower with four rubber vibration absorbing posts.

The fin tower is about 15mm too short to properly mount a 120mm fan. Its oversight well talk about in greater detail momentarily.
