The fins are simply too close together to work in a low pressure cooling system (like most computers have). That is why it takes two fans to force the air through. Amazing they tried to make this sound like a good thing...

In all of my quiet cases, the CPU doesn't get it's own fan. Depending on heat load, it either gets air from a downward-facing 120mm power supply fan or a rear 120mm case fan. In my current rig, the closest fan for it to get airflow from is about 8" away.
