That is because we keep it word of mouth. There are those of us on TPU that use only Thermalright coolers. The price/performance is second to none.

Eventually someone will. I don't think Thermalright makes much effort in reaching out to review sites with any of their gear tbh. They let their price to performance do the talking for them.

I recall seeing a video on YouTube that Thermalright quietly releases several products a year. No press release or anything.

I want to say it was GamersNexus.

They make zero effort to reach out to reviewers lol. But their AIO are pretty darn good. That one Steve reviewed had the weak fans and it still did ok. I have two and I would put them up against the other guys just by comparing my results to others.

They are the site that started getting the word out about the, peerless assassin, several years ago while the rest of the review world ignored it. Meanwhile, those in the know scooped it up and Thermalrights marketshare boomed.

This.

They used to send everything they made out to look at, but over the last couple of years, I feel like they are flowing on the reputation from what did get reviewed.
Most times you have to hunt them down to get a product.
