**CRYORIG is new and so is R1 cooler!**

It has, but not by much. NH-D14 is still in the top pack of about a dozen coolers.. all within a few degrees of each other.. especially with better fans like TY-147 fans.tttttt

These large coolers and this one also (seen in the few reviews) do not really pull away till CPU is OC'd.


They normally use one of the Hot pre Sandy CPU's.

No real point in a review at stock as it will be near same for all large coolers.
 
I think we all know and agree top of the line coolers need serious overclocks to show their cooling capability.

The closer to their maximum cooling ability, the easier it is to see their performance difference.

Was just reading HardOCP review.

Was not impressed by their testing procedure.. not at all. They removed the fan clip / fin pack cover and raised the fan way above where it is supposed to set because they are using 52.5mm tall Vengeance RAM. I would be surprised if this did not compromised the cooling ability of R1 Ultimate by at least 1-3c, possibly more.

They only did that to show how it conflicts with high ram modules, for the testing they put it back together and removed the one memory stick.

In our case we were unable to move the fan upwards on the heatsink since this would cause the fan to block the side lid of our chassis from closing. Given this precarious situation I decided I would test the cooler by removing the RAM stick from the motherboard and run with only one RAM module in single channel mode.

Ran with one stick of RAM because of side cover??? Seems he should have done it because that's the way the cooler is designed to run, not because fan on RAM would not fit inside of their case. ;)

Before what you quoted it read
In our case though we had no choice but to remove a stick of RAM and run our system in single channel mode. We could have run the R1 using one fan and kept both sticks of RAM but this would impact the R1 Ultimate’s design profile and we did not want to do that.

I'm not sure what review said when originally released, but it sure wasn't what it says now. :D
 
If they had even the slightest bit of common sense they would have used low profile memory anyway, none of the big dual towers play nice with the ridiculous heat spreaders on those vengeance dimms.
 
This cooler is supposed to be have the pipes shaped/bent in such a way that it is to the left and up if you look at it from above the CPU socket.
 
R1 Ultimate is offset to the left but not up.
R1 Universal is offset too; a bit more and uses 13mm thick fan instead of 25mm thick fan.
 
Hmm may still block my top PCI-E slot like this 140mm Noctua, Asus in their wisdom went back from E-ATX to ATX with this Mobo.
 
Indeed it will. R1 Ultimate is same 140mm width meaning 70mm center CPU to side of cooler.
  • Thermalright HR-22 is offset 5mm away from PCI-E slot but still still 70mm center CPU to side of cooler.
  • Silver Arrow IB-E is offset 9.5mm away from PCI-E slot making it 67.8mm center CPU to side of cooler.
Any cooler using 140mm fans is probably going to be a problem.

What is the center CPU to PCI-E slot measurement?
 
Why not keep your 14PE? Trouble free, cools very well, is quiet, and a couple of TY-143 2500rpm or similar fans will make it sound as loud and cool as well as CLCs do.. and it will never leak or have a pump failure either.. :D

Today Cryorig announced the
AF 41

CRYORIG A Peak into Cooling the Future

Introducing CRYORIG’s AF41 supreme air cooling super tower. The CRYORIG AF41 (short for Air Flow For #1), is the apex of air cooling innovation, cooling performance, heatpipe design, overall weight, maximum dBA power and near zero Kelvin cooling performance. Featuring our very own PentaPropeller™ system, with a world first five 140mm high performance XF140’s. Each fan pushes and doubles the airflow and dBA of the fan in front of it, for the final sum of 16xCFM and 16xdBA!! Along with a the 4.0 version of our Jet Fin Acceleration System™ tower units, the all new Extreme Turbo Jet System™ compresses and expands air flow through 4 series of towers, and creating near Jet engine propulsion. With all of these innovative features combining into our proprietary ExtremeTurboJetSuperPentaPropellerHyperPropulsionSystem™ or EX.T.J.S.P.P.H.P.S™ for short. We believe that the EX.T.J.S.P.P.H.P.S™ is the most sophisticated piece of PC cooling technology known to man till this point in history, and we at CRYORIG are here to present it as our gift to mankind.

Well if it is someone is a fool for rest of the month playing a joke after midday. ;)

Be better if they got stock into stores here.
 
Another review is out. Not much to compare to. :(
