Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme Now in Black
Cooling expert Thermalright announced today the black version of its beloved Ultra 120 eXtreme heatpipe tower. This special edition will be called TRUE Black 120. Aside from its all black nickel plated surface the TRUE Black 120's dimensions are identical to the Ultra-120 eXtreme, measuring 63.44 x 132 x 160.5mm. It also weighs in at 790g and supports Intel's 775 socket, and AMD's AM2/AM2+. Pre-orders of the exotic cooling are reported to be starting any second now, no price was announced though.

Might make my system look slightly classier in it's cheap chinese-made case ;)
One thing about coating, I have been painting Heatsinks for years and there has never been any measurable difference in temps.
(I am quite careful to use a very light coating of Lacquer as enamel is quite a bit thicker)
However this isnt really anything to be impressed with. I have to say they better jump on the HDT bandwagon, because their Perf king crown is quickly evaporating away. I felt sorta pissed off when the Ultra 120 Extreme was outperformed by the HDT S1283, on Frosty tech, then I purchased a HDT for myself and tried...and confirmed it. HDT > TRUE.
I want to see a Ultra 120 HDT already!!! :shadedshu Five (10) 8mm heatpipes with HDT, however less than 1mm gap between each pipe, using their same fin array!!!!!!111
