Hi, i have been reading reviews etc as to what cooler would be best for my pc. But i would like some real reviews from users preferably with the same case, components if possible.

I currently have:

Asus P5WDH Deluxe
Lian Li V1000
Core 2 Quad 6600 @ 3ghz (Want to clock more once i get a new cooler)

The coolers top of my list are:

Titan Amanda
Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme
Tuniq Tower 120


What cooler would be best for this cpu in this case with this mobo?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. I am sure however i saw someone with the same case as mine with the 120 Ultra Extreme and they had to have it so the fan blew through the heatsink straight into the PSU compartment as opposed to out the back of the case? Not sure though, i cant seem to find it again.
 
that motherboard is a 975x board which doesnt OC much further than 333fsb on quads so you might already be at the limit.
 
Hi

I was going to post a very similar thread about an upgrade for my Q6600 cooler :p

I have and AC7 at the mo and although fine for my old E6600 it doesnt seem to cut it with the Q6600.

I have, after reading the forums, decided on the 120 Extreme, but just wondered which is the best 120mm fan(s) to couple with it ?

Had a look and seems to be between the Sythe 1600 rpm or the Noctua 1200 rpm peeps' thoughts / experiences would be much appreciated


Sorry to sort of hijack the thread, but was almost exactly what i was gonna ask in the Op anyway :)

Cheers
