Enermax ETS-T40-VD CPU Cooler With VEGAS DUO PWM Twister Bearing Fan Compatible with latest Intel 2011/1366/1155 and AMD FM2/FM1/AM3+

Pros: This is an amazing Heat sink, under full load the processor doesn't even go above 55 C max and i'm running games at maximum settings. i have GTX 660, i-3770k ivy bridge(3.5GHz),
G.Skill 8GB RAM, and MSI M-Power motherboard

Cons: Only problem i had was about 2 days after install. the fan started squeaking like an Agitated cricket, but i fixed that problem by adding Graphite oil to the bearings so that it would be lubricated. Now its runs better than ever and makes no noise.

Pros: Cools very well, my FX-8120 runs at around 32 C (room temp is around 20) after being at full load for hours with just the one fan on the heatsink.

Cons: Its much larger than it looks, the top almost touches the side of my Antec 902 v3. It also blocks one of the RAM slots (could probably fit a low profile piece in) on my ASRock 990FX Extreme 3.

Other Thoughts: If you hold down the LED button for a few seconds it will turn off, so you don't have to cycle through all the colors.

Pros: Really amazing cooling performance, like having a giant block of ice sitting on your processor. Makes me wonder why I ever considered liquid cooling.

Cons: A bit pricey- can get a basically identical non-LED version for nearly half the price. But for a showcase computer (such as in my blue HAF 932 case) it looks absolutely beautiful.

Could potentially block RAM slots on some boards. It puts the squeeze on one of the 8 slots in my sabertooth x79, but luckily I'm only using 4 sticks currently and the blocked slot is among the last that should be filled, only a problem for when I eventually upgrade to 32GB.

Pros: Dropped temps from 27C to never more than 17C to me great achievement for the price

Cons: Large, almost too large. Issues getting the fan on it because of the proximity to the RAM but it did fit(could just be my mobo)

Pros: it was keeping my i7 3930k at 25 degrees before overclocking so it helps give some extra headroom, my cpu is now overclocked from 3.2 to 4.5 and it still idles at about 35-9

Cons: not really a con but make sure your case has room and that it can clear the ram chips and it even cuts it close to my full sized graphics card

Other Thoughts: the led's are nice but the fan its self quality wise is even better using it for a all blue and black build

Pros: This is a huge fan in comparison to the stock fan that comes with the cpu. I have a Xigmatek Midguard II, switched the Enermax fan with the one that came pre installed with my case. Gives the case a unique look. Install was quick and easy. Everything needed was included. Packaging was excellent. Purchased with a $20.00 rebate, always a good thing. Super quiet.

Cons: None.

Pros: Huge-lots of airflow. Great price, LED's look great with the chrome strips on the fan blades. different LED Modes, fits perfect in a mid-tower case. Easy installation-20 minutes or less.

Cons: Have to remove fan to re-seat RAM if during initial build the RAM isn't seated properly-1 time issue so still 5 eggs.

Other Thoughts: 4pin connector fits perfect to the 4 pin CPU connector on my mobo. LED's go great with either blue or red theme build. Great looking in my case!

Pros: I bought this CPU cooler to replace my stock cooler. The installation seems intimidating, but it was surprisingly easy. After about an hour (I was being overly cautious), the cooloer was in and looking nice. The LEDs were nice and bright, and I liked the idea of changing the color. I tested my machine with the cooler and was shocked by the results. My CPU was running at about 30-35°C (86-95°F) while I was doing nothing, and, after installation, it is running at about 19°C (66°F) which is about room temperature. I haven't run the test while doing heavy gaming, but it should be significantly cooler (mine was at 50°C before the new cooler).

Cons: It is a huge unit. I had to sacrifice two of my fans in order to install it, but it was well worth it. i was able to reuse the fans on a different system and saved some money. I also didn't have the thermal grease in mine. I did have some Arctic Silver lying around so it all went well. Not docking the score at all for these.

Other Thoughts: It is well worth the time and the money. But, it is huge. You need to make sure it will fit in your case. I had about 1/4 an inch between the cooler and the case. It's a tight squeeze, but it works.

Pros: the LEDs are the main reason i got this cooler, and it doesn't disappoint! the second reason was that it was super quiet!!! im quite shocked at the noise of the 120mm fan it comes with! i will be getting more of them if i am in need of better fans! im running a i7 3770k and it keeps everything super chilly!

Cons: nothing.

Other Thoughts: this will be the highlight of your build! having most of my case illuminated with blue LED fans, and this guy in the middle of it bringing light to everything else is just super awesome!!!

Pros: Keeps my i5 2500k extremely cool. I've OCed the CPU from 3.3ghz to 4.0ghz and it idles at around 39 degrees celsius. Even with heavy usage I haven't noticed it exceed the mid 40's in temp. This fan is extremely huge, beware.

Cons: Doesn't fit in my full tower Sunbeam Transformer case without a few adjustments, i.e., I had to disconnect one of the side panel fans, as a notch on the CPU cooler sits inside of it. It would probably be better to remove that fan, but eh.. As long as it's not spinning it poses no real threat. So, definitely beware with side panel fans. Be sure you have the capacity.
