Thumbs Up!
Not bad at all. I had hoped for this but didn't think that Thermalright would do it since all-copper is such a turn on for this market. But here if not before is definite proof that all-copper isn't a necessity at all. (and I say this with an all-copper CoolerMaster currently installed)

Taking advantage of EDIT are we? (sure... make ME look stupid... although it may be more true then one could ever believe)

80mm fan only?

i'd really like sticking my case full of 120mm's

don't need and bigger then that really especally for this kind of price ....

at best byte the fan good + cooler + flat rate usps priortymail/ fast shipping = $30
I get it in about 2-3 days (from texas) to here in indiana



120mm's make a heck of alot of noise... I've had many learned what i was doing and how to better utillize my airflow etc...

i "can" get 80-160 cfm in/out at a very accepable noise level (really not that bad)

I was hoping for a 90 or 92. I will probably pass this only because I am planning on a cpu / mobo / ram upgrade this summer.

why would you need 90mm? its over rated!! very ther is little differace beween the performace of a slk-900 when useing between a 80mm and a 92mm with simular specs... so unless you plan on have a fan really really loud... for now i'd stick with 80mm

one could allwaus attemp to use a 80 to 120mm adapot but what would be the point? you add to much wiegh and you have to go back to a hsf theat doesn't just clip on

....i've never bolted on a heatsink... so i'm still scared bout that..... however... the 120mm usually are more quiet then the 80mm or even 92... and move either the same.. or more air....
