- Strengths:
- Super quiet
Awesome looking
You get what you pay for - good
- Weaknesses:
- Installation might be a tiny bit tricky
Price
- Summary:
- My 775 proc Core2 Quad used to be 60C75C idle, full load.
Now I am at 50C/60C idle, full load. Very quiet, love it. and the blue LED elegantly complements the reddish copper. Not that I am after looks, but its a bonus.
Overall, my system is quiet, and cool...which I was after.

- Strengths:
- I got several think to be happy of. First of all I got my Phenom II X4 down 10C, from 44C to 34C. The very low noise as compare to the old one I was using. The size is OK but you need a big enough case to house it, it is light, and the great discounted price!
- Weaknesses:
- No one until now.
- Summary:
- Great product, I will like a bit more of thermal grease. It looks nice and I like the way the fan is protected by the cage.
SUPER COOL

I run AMD Phenom™ II X4 965 Quad-Core Black Edition 3.4GHz w/ 8MB Cache and my Temp Contol tells me while running Global Agenda, Heros of Newerith, and Counterstrike sourse all max video settings I've never been able to get the temp over 41 degrees!!
- Weaknesses:
- A little loud. It says it has silent mode on it but i can hear it threw my antec 1200 top case fan and its pretty loud cant sleep with it.
keeping things alittle TO COLD?!
- Summary:
- best cpu cooler i've ever had. I cant even get above 45 degrees with a antec 1200 case fans on low speed. This could be better then water cooling?
Cool

- Strengths:
- - Large cooling capacity
- Depending on PWM setting, very quiet.
- Good quality kit, everything you need except alcohol to clean your old CPU.
- Looks nice, quality manufacturing.
- Weaknesses:
- - Rather heavy and large, check to see if it fits your case.
- Cannot move the case long distances with it on. Do not install this heat sink and then throw it in the car for a trip to a friend's without protecting it, you might fracture something, and it likely will not be the heatsink.
- Price may be an issue, but, you get what you pay for.
- Summary:
- I got this on sale from ME a couple days ago and installed it. It was $99, but there was a special for $79, so I jumped on it. I opened the box and installed the unit, taking my time to read everything and be careful. Worked out great.
I went from steady IDLE temps of 50-51C with a stock Intel cooler on a Q6600, to 43C using Prime95 on all four cores with In-Place Large FFT's. Ambient temp was 24C. Wow. Worth every penny. Also, in this config and under stress, it never broke 1800 RPM.

- Strengths:
- Best air cooler on the market if you ask me I always used Zalman coolers Keep's your systems running cool even On Overclocking got my system up to 4 ghz And the Air Cooler also Look's Cool
- Weaknesses:
- Price you can get a water cooling kit at that price.
However, I tried water cooling with Cool it DOMINATOR ll and had a bad experiences with water cooling. One of the hoses leak coolant and fried my whole computer. So I will stay away from water cooing for now on if you are spending like 5 g's like me on a gaming pc you don't want to take the chance. If you know what I mean no warranty on water coolers killing your computer lol

- Strengths:
- Great factory lapping
Ease of installation
Great thermal performance
Quiet
- Weaknesses:
- Summary:
- This has to be the best cooler I have ever come across. It looks great and performs better. Installs in under 10 minutes; and with my CoolerMaster RAF Case my CPU (Q9550) temperature at idle is 15C and under load at 22C ~ 25C. This cooler is worth every penny.
