That is one big mama, looks like you'd need scafolding in your case to support the muttha.

I have also seen poor reviews of this heatsink personally i would stick with the noctua or the TT

stinka · 14 Apr 2007 at 20:50

yeh im still liking this.........

might have to go for it

look at the size of that thing :eek:

its not even practical, the thing is huge. on size alone no other cooler can come close. it has to perform good being as big as it it!!!

You even have to buy your own fans for it

thats no biggie, most people who will buy this will already have a bucket load of fans available to play with on this cooler.

i would slap on 2 arctic cooling 12cm fans for good airflow to noise ratio and damn good cheapo price.

someone needs to test this cooler out against the current high end ones (TT, Ultra120E) and post some results. from looks alone id say it is probably the best performer out of the lot.

Cooler looks interesting. A bit to large for my liking though.
