thanks for your info, pals.

TRUE120 is good.

But if you want to go quad-core AND thinking of OCing up to 4ghz, i suggest watercooling

p/s: another true120 user here

u like it too? So sell me ur TRUE so u can buy it while u like it.

i am using true cos ccf bracket cant fit my mobo

TRUE > CCF.... dun just trust frostytech ... which heatsink has larger heatspread area and bigger heatpipes of cos owns

d cooler reviewed by frostytech is Ultra-120... just go count d heatpipe dat it has... Ultra-120 has 4 heatpipes only, whereby Ultra-120 extreme has 6...so back 2 d question again, Sunbeam CCF or Ultra-120 extreme?

hmm have any of you guys seen coolermaster's v10 and v12....freaking huge...wondering if its practical or not...lols

btw..the v12 kinda looked like the xigmatek thor...but with insanely more heatpipes

the results posted above are showing results from TRUE what ....

anybody used the xig s1284 archilles in the cm690 casing?whr u guys face the fan?top or side?

since its cm690, facing top or rear is not really a matter if u have exhaust fans for both top and rear

means if i wan to face up i nid to have a exhaust fan on the vent? canot straight face up using the fan frm the hsf?

Here's my experience with CCF though, used to face it up. But temperature went down slightly (1~2C) when I face it to the back exhaust instead. Only reason I can think of the air intake for my CCF comes from bottom which is where my 4850GS is located. Air there is a little warm due to the heat dissipated by the GC.

ic.im not sure wheter i can face it to the rear bcoz my mobo have a big heatsink on it facing the rear,so my only option now is either up or front

Well, if you can't face it to the back then face it to the top would be your next best choice.

Perhaps heatsinks maker should invent universal S-Clip like Thermalright . So AM2 platform can have air direction like intel.

ya... facing top should cnt get fresh air thn face rare... like my IceBlade oni can face top... but performance still good la...

yup agreed

He got no choice ma, either top or in front lol. Blow top for mine = getting slightly heated air from my GC

if i face rear,the rear fan helps to suck out the hot air frm the fan on hsf,which means...double performance?

its still same theory if u face top(if u put fan at top of ur cm690), but it will suck 2gather hot air frm GC to cool ur HS..

so it should be get beter performance if u make it face rear..
