Put me up for a Ultra-120. Same performance as a TRUE but 20$ less.

Great input so far. For those that are posting what kind of HSF you are using could you also include idle and load temps (please make sure your System Specs are filled out)? Thanks

i have an HDT-1283 but my temp sensors are stuck, so i can only tell temp is a constant 41C on both cores :roll:

yeah! in my humble opinion its gonna beat true, but we'll have to wait for reviews

@EastCoasthandle,

Are we limiting the discussions to CPU coolers only?

TRUE 120 with Thermaltake A2018 here, TIM-Consultants T-C Grease 0098.

mlee49 · Feb 2, 2009

I wouldn't mind knowing the best fan maker. Is Thermaltake or Sycthe better? I want nice cfm that isn't too loud. Any suggestions?

EastCoasthandle · Feb 2, 2009

Original Post has been updated to include:
-GPU heatsinks
-Included PC Case Ventilation

Just want to say EastCoast that you make the best clubhouses on this site. Well done. :toast:

The w/c clubhouse has been a valuable resource for me.

Thanks

Why aren't I written under the users who own the Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme ?! :mad:

frankie827 · Feb 2, 2009

hey everyone
i have a question for all of you
currently i'm using an arctic cooling freezer 7 pro to cool my B3 q6600. i can get to 3.6ghz on air @ around 1.48V, but my temps idle at around 50*C. so, for my question....what is the best air cooler i can get FROM NEWEGG? it HAS to be from newegg because i have a giftcard.
so that means no thermalright coolers

i was looking at the V8 but then i heard really good things about the Tuniq Tower, but that may be too big for my case without removing the side fans. i was looking at a noctua cooler, but i read a horrible review on toms. =\

I would just get the Ultra 120 eXtreme. You're going to HAVE to get it at some point. It's never going to be beat.

In all honesty those are great temps you have now. I am not sure if you are going to get any better performance based on the temps and the amount of fan noise you can tolerate now.

However, there are few that are of "interest". Based on newegg only purchase:
XIGMATEK HDT-S1283

ZEROtherm ZEN FZ120 although I do like the ZEROtherm ZEN NV120 (not sold at newegg)

XIGMATEK HDT-S1284EE

I'm sure there maybe a few others.

tbh...i really dont care about fan noise as long as it will keep my quad at low temps
