QUOTE(captvizcenzo @ May 26 2010, 01:42 AM) if its just dull, its still ok for me... like TRUE, there are lots of oxide on the fins, just like batu karang  Added on May 26, 2010, 1:45 amanyway, how about megahalems?  the newer revision has a stainless steel top fin, so will always shine. what about its other fins? are they just like true's fin or better? and if given a choice of true black and megahalems, which wud be a better one?  really hard to make up my mind... nope, even the surface of the stainless steel will be oxidized over time. Didn't u notice those stainless steel gate around your neighborhood tends to be slightly dull after some time? True Black is nice, but when dust builds up, u need to clean it lo  Nothing is perfect. U want looks or u want performance?

U want looks or u want performance? i want both, can i? megahalems and true black have same level of cooling efficiency right(although megahalems seems to lead the way  )?

i need some advice here. can i run the cooler master v10 without the fan shroud ala passive cooling?
i ran into some problem of space due to a miscalculation on my side. the second set of heatsinks and fan with the shroud on didnt clear the 5.25" drive cage.
i'm hoping to mod the 5.25" drive cage in a while but i need to use the pc also. i'm using only the TEC fan at the moment and have another 80mm fan which is i mounted above the second heatsink using cable ties.
its messy but the tempreature i'm getting is lower then the standard heatsink which died a few days ago.

I asked a friend of mine to change the orientation of my cpu cooler from horizontal to vertical. Currently I'm using deepcool ice blade pro and my casing is CM690II plus. Unfortunately he said it can't be done (he said something about the cooler's mounting). the reason I want to change the orientation to vertical is because I want to make use of the 5.25 inch bay and put a fan there thus it will aligned with the cpu cooler's fan. my question is if I stick with the current horizontal set up and add a fan inside the 5.25 inch bay, does it interrupt the air flow?

If around RM100, I'm pretty sure Cooler Master Hyper 212+ will be your best bet.

I forgot how the bracket looks like.  Last time I did help my friend to fix it on his mobo, but it's an Intel platform...
