*UPDATE*
First review: http://www.ocxtreme.org/joomla/index.php?o...id=35&Itemid=30 VF900 and ZV9 look nice, Aerocase Condor looks big, but right now, this is the most interesting to me of all. I especially dig the passive ability and the fact that you can mount it in 2 orientations. http://www.thermalright.com/a_news/main_news_hr03.htm http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=34277 This post has been edited by evilnickwong: Oct 12 2006, 09:16 AM |

Hey guys...
Do you guys noticed one thing?  That reviewer use all Thermalright HR model of heatsink... Here's the picture of it:  CPU Cooler - Thermalright HR - 01  Chipset Cooler - Thermalright HR - 05 VGA Cooler - Thermalright HR - 03 A true Thermalright HR heatsinks die hard fan!!!  Anyway, damn, that VGA cooler looks very nice!!! With 4 Heatpipes... I don't think there's an aftermarket VGA heatsink that utilize 4 Heatpipes...  Even V1 Ultra uses 3 heatpipes only...  Damn, that heatsink sure beat every aftermarket VGA cooler outside..  This post has been edited by sHawTY: Oct 6 2006, 01:19 AM |

Yeap. The RAM cooling was TR's concept for RAMsinks, maybe that'll materialize as another model under the HR series. HR-01 is abit of a weakling compared to the Ninja and Ultra-120, tho I don't doubt the efficiency of the HR-05.

unless u'r willing to void ur high performance rams for the heatpipe, i doubt many ppl would consider the cooler
n its not worth to cool value rams with those, IMO |

Premium Bulk will be bringing in some soon, its selling price is below Rm200.
 Heard it quite a good cooler. HR's concept is for the passive cooling, thats why the HR-01 lost to Ultra and the others, its a passive heatsink, not a active one. |

another nice product from Thermalright...
there are 4 heatpipes there, the first and the last is the N shape heatpipe while the two in the middle is a U shape ones. and the best part is the N shape heatpipe which is truly unique man......... but i'm really wondering why L shape heatsinks which are the most effective is not out yet.... |

Aerocase Condor has L shaped pipes, plus those are all handcrafted individually per each order.
 Cost a bomb to get them to send here though I'd say. |

Haha it has nothing to do with that cheapo brand Aerocool.
QUOTE Aerocase stands out: It's a Wyoming-based, silence-inspired heatsink company with an all-woman management. They're taking on the multinational tech industry with a lot of guts and a passive VGA heatsink that's bigger than anyone else's. The Condor does not have the power of mass marketing and worldwide distribution to spur it on, but it's worth considering if you're trying to cool a high end video card quietly.
