Thermaltake Launches Jing Silent CPU Cooler
Thermaltake, leading DIY thermal solutions brand, launch their latest CPU air-cooler specifically developed for silent operation while maintaining a maximum of cooling efficiency, the Thermaltake Jing. Its name is derived from the Chinese, representing "Silence" and carrying with it the concepts of comfort, excellence and exquisiteness. The universal socket support makes it compatible to all computer processors currently available on the market. With a maximum cooling capacity of up to 200W and an almost un-audible noise level of 16 dBA at a fan speed of 800 RPM, the Jing CPU cooler is the ideal solution for noise sensitive users expecting uncompromising performance.
Unlike traditional up-side-down air flow designs, the Jing utilizes a tower side-flow design to optimize cooling performance. To attain maximum cooling performance, Thermaltake's Jing adopts 5 Φ6mm high-efficiency heat-pipes conducting heat from the Nickel coated mirror base directly into the cooling tower which is made of 41 0.5 mm thick specially designed aluminum fins to increase the overall thermal dissipation area. The two preinstalled extra silent 120 mm VR fans can be manually adjusted between 800RPM and 1300RPM according to differing user needs. Through their inhale-exhaust reverse fan design a greater airflow is achieved resulting in enhanced thermal performance.
By utilizing a particularly thin fan enclosure frame which is open to all four sides, noise generated by the airflow is reduced as much as any possible. Additionally a recess in the cooling fins at the entry and exit points of the airflow creates something similar to an air-cushion, giving the air an optimized angel to stream into between the cooling fins while at the same time reducing noise development even further. All of these measures make the Jing CPU cooler Silent by Design.
The Thermaltake Jing CPU cooler is available at a suggested retail price of US$59.99.

Looks nice though.
however I would get a pocket-storage-problem :roll:
Sorry, I see my error now;)
1.) Because the two coolers are in facing opposing directions would it trap heat in the center of the heatsink.
2.) Also most cases have exhast fans at the rear, tower style heatisnks are usually facing the cases rear exhaust fan for extra heat removal. Because one of the Thermaltake Jing's fans is facing the case's exhaust fan wouldnt that prevent the case's exhaust fan from doing it's job effectively.
Anyone case to answer this. :)
PS. This cooler looks like a cheap copy of the Sonic Tower Rev 2, which can mout a 120mm fan on opposing sides.

@dent1 dont post pictures of other coolers in a news thread
Edit: Nevermind....found it. Review/Preview This cooler does look like it performs nicely. Wish it was a different color though.

This is more of a real world testing atmosphere, as when you game for a while, the inside of your case is closer to 40 degrees than it is that 25 degrees you started with;) (open air testing does not apply here)
Those numbers you just saw were more a mark of the coolers efficiency under stress than an actual temperature you might see day to day.
Actually Thermaltake coolers have been around for awhile but seems like i can't see one that stands in charts against the best coolers around, and the price is somewhat disappointing for its performance, maybe that's just me who thinks like that, anyway, the color is horrible lol.
If it's not pushing the coolers realistically in the load tests then that makes the rankings inaccurate, as we've seen before the performance gap between coolers really only shows up at higher heat loads. Push the average into the 80s and new gaps start showing up, push the average into the 90s and gaps that were slight before become hugely exaggerated. This is why I've always felt we need 3 speed tests, stock, average overclock, then something high but achievable by an enthusiast for 24/7 (like 4.2-4.4).
And I wouldn't just automatically assume a manufacture is afraid of your testing method because it's so great, they may very well be avoiding it because it isn't.
