i wanna have this cooler, the scythe orochi anyone knows who sells this cooler

I am using this cooler and i have done 3.48Ghz on my e2140 with no probs with an ambient temp of 28 degrees and load of 68-70 degrees. Mind you, im pumping around 1.60V. So figure This is a good bargain for its price. I would give it 4 stars for performance.

get the LED version instead.. its better than this.. though this has a PWM attached to it

Added on February 18, 2008, 11:23 pmzalman is a GOOD cooler, but not EXCELLENT, there is a difference. take note of tat.

I would rate this three as excellent coolers
1.Thermalright 120/ifx14
2.xigmatek s1283
3.tuniq tower

again... i have used the worst zalman cooler in its range which is the Zalman Fatality fcs7700 i think, and to be honest, it has served my OC purpose superbly well. Never look down on one of the pioneers of cooling in the market. What are your reasons for saying that its performance is not recommended?

i think theres a contradiction to what anandtech thinks, or toms hardware... also remember there are coolers that perform well with certain systems better than others. I said thats its a good cooler, not an excellent one.. i believe that its still good coz i have used a zalman before.

thermalright ultima 90i of course.

good guide there.. but we know tomshardware....

woot.... aluminium is better in dissipation than copper? dude, been to chemistry class before? Copper is rated higher than aluminium in the table of heat conductors. By the way, copper is an excellent heat transfer material, and it dissipates heat much more better aluminium. Just that with copper, because the rate of heat transfer is higher, there has to be constant air blowing at it to keep it cool. ALuminium on the other hand has a slower rate of heat transfer thus it might "look" as though its doing a good job in dissipating heat, but hell no.

bro shawty, is it nickel plated like all thermalright coolers?

hmm cant wait for noctua.. i have never used any of their coolers before.

AC Freezer is alright below 1.4Volts.. once above that, it can be a bit hot..

yes bro its correct:) hmm, who is godlike in heatsinks besides you

check with core temp dude.

well i still find it hot.. after a certain clockspeed. Somewhat it cant handle.i have played with 3 AC freezers already lol.

should be able to fit any motherboard.. so yours should not be a problem at all. The AC Freezer 7 fan should face the rams.. instead.

haha i use the CM HYper 212 too.. confirmed awesome la!

no way man, with the clocks i am at , ithe stock will burn

Added on March 9, 2008, 3:14 amcm hyper 212 does fit mid towers. you should place two fans and make it push pull, it gives you super results.

bro who wants to take over your legacy la. Youre legend lor. I dont mind but hmm, im not good enough yet

i did get a second fan.. because its works welll with a two fan setup.. soon u will know about the "push =pull" factor in cooling setups. So yeah its better later on when u have enough money, get two similar fans and plug them in and work it out
