The GoD of cpu heatsinks

http://www.coolermaster-usa.com/prod...roduct_id=2731

I fully believe this is the best heatsink out there.

It's huge and not only that it comes with 2 fans that blow cool air through the fins. You just have to clean it out every once and awhile or that cool air becomes hot air which is the case in any computer case.

Sorry man but anything that blows air directly onto the cpu is BAD imo. If you don't maintain your box then it is blowing hot are directly onto the cpu. Air going across is better then air blow directly down.

I was drooling all over that when I first saw it 2 weeks ago. I really think that this is the way gamers are heading.

I have the same box as in the picture and the side has like a ton of holes. Cool air from outside the box in blown onto the cpu and you get some cooling for the northbridge, ram and gpu with the air blowing onto the cpu like that.

Two small fans are way to much noise.

not to burst that bubble, but [url='http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835109125

Thermalright Ultra 120[/url] is still king. Currently what I use in all my systems. Thermaltake does make decent coolers though.

Edit: if anything, look at the Zerotherm coolers as well, great reviews.

Edit of Edit: Actually Sam, if you wanted to do something really impressive, do what a friend of mine does. Watercooled his 6 computers :thumbsup: , he looped them altogether, & with the right pump it actually runs great. Though his pump cost like $400.00 which most are $60.00-150.00

Still not true.

the king is the IFX-14. Which me and jen both have. It scored the absolute best on cooling (Even compared to water cooling) on tom's hardware.

probaby could. But we strap on 2 14cm fans to taht bad boy.
Blue led's on em to make it look spiffy :)


Let's just say overclocking the QX9650, heat isn't an issue ;)

A 2 page thread arguing over heatsinks and cooling systems has filled my nerd quota for the month! :)

Oh yeah, well, I cool my CPU's by having Emma Frost sit on them ! Naked! Covered in Bugatti Veyrons !

Lies...That would just overheat the CPU all the more!

hmmm....

i dont have a cpu fan except for the stock one that came with my pentium. does buying an aftermarket product make much of a difference? i know yes it will be cooler but does it really make that much of a difference that i should spend $40-50 on one?
