Rating + 5 Amazing!!!!


Pros: Keeps my Q6600 super cool at 24-27C at idle!!! but it gets alot of help from my case (raidmax iceberg)
looks cool and feels solid

Cons: the fan mount is a bit weak. feels flimsy and doesn't slide out very well nor does it slide in easy either. had to use some screws to keep the fan mount from coming out due to vibrations and noise

Other Thoughts: this thing is huge, make sure your case is at least 8" external width to accommodate it.
get a good case with good airflow to help this badboy cool more effectively

Rating + 5 Great Cooler


Pros: Have 15+ of these installed.
They keep machines cool and stable.

Cons: Very Large. Can be tight in some cases.

Other Thoughts: Don't use the thermal paste it comes with. Get Arctic Silver 5 instead.

Rating + 5 This the ONE!


Pros: The best I have used! 120mm in size and fits in an Antec 300! The Tuniq thermal paste that comes with it is the best I have ever used also! I've used artic silver, but this tuniq paste works way better.

Cons: None.......no, not one! Just look at the measurements for the antec 300 and know that anything less in the width department will probably not take this fan/hs. It just fits in the Antec 300 without touching the side of case, so any fan over 153mm in height will not fit in the antec 300. Some full towers don't measure much more if any when it comes to width compared to the antec 300. The antec 900 is the same width as the 300, but the antec 900 II is wider, as is the 1200.

Other Thoughts: I love the fan speed control, eventhough I've had to move it around a time or two for my xfire setup. The 92mm heat sink fans have nothing on this monster! Yes, it's heavy and yes it can be a pain to mount, but don't use the sticky stuff to attach the back bracket, but instead, place the bracket on the table and lower motherboard and align the holes and then mount it and it will work like a charm. Mine cools an E8500 like I couldn't believe. At 4.2 during prime96 it wouldn't go over 40c, always held at 39....of course fan speed was up there around 1750-1800. I run an everyday oc of 3.6 and the fan speed is 1200 and it doesn't go over 32c. I bought artic silver paste for an amd build of mine and I will never do that again, cuz I used some of my left over tuniq paste on it and it just kicked rear on heat, but when I reseated with artic silver, the temps get up to 40c when they used to stay around 30c. You artic silver lovers can have it!

Rating + 2 Horrible for fanless setup


Pros: looks good and has big fan

Cons: I have a fanless system and this fan becasue it's turned sideways inside the heatsink caused my pc to run wayyy to hot. My graphics were extremely choppy and stuttered continuelly because of the lack of air curculation. I am ordering the fan i had before which has lasted at least 2-3yrs (Arctic Cooling-Freezer).

Other Thoughts: I'm sure this unit might be good in any other setup but mine just got way to hot. On the upside.....Newegg still rocks and got me the unit in no time!

Rating + 5 Beautiful!!! and Kicks Bootyville!!!


Pros: Solid construction: It's a beast. It just barely fit my NZXT Tempest case.
Looks: It's awesome looking once you get it in place. The brushed aluminum finish a fire shaped cut edges really look nice facing the side panel. Not too flashy, just really impressive.
Functionality: It works well. I haven't over clocked it with my q9550, but does great at stock speeds.

Cons: Heavy: Don't let the picture fool you. This bad boy is big and heavy. If this is your first build, don't let that intimidate you, it's well worth it in the end...lol.
Installation: PAIN IN THE @#$. Yes it's possible, but what a pain getting it centered on the processor. Honestly, ask someone with small hands to hold it in place while you center it over the processor and get the screws started. INSTALL WITH MOTHERBOARD OUTSIDE THE CASE IF USING A GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R.

Other Thoughts: Sort through the pieces, then take your time installing it. Be very careful placing it on the processor once you have the thermal paste on. Once your done, it looks AWESOME. It doesn't need LEDS if you already have some on the case, unless you want a Christmas tree ;^) Looks nice as is. Be patient and wait for a rebate or instant price drop that will get you below forty bucks. It WILL come. Good luck!!

Rating + 5 Love it.


Pros: Works great. Quiet. Reliable.

Cons: Big and heavy. Be careful installing it.

Other Thoughts: I've had this for a while now. It's exactly what's needed for overclocking or just keeping your PC cool and quiet.

Rating + 2 Doesn't fit


Pros: Big. Size matters when you cool your CPU.

Cons: Big. Size matters if it doesn't fit into your case. Check the measurement of your case before you buy it. My case is a mid-tower, yet it doesn't fit due to the fan on side window panel of the case.

Other Thoughts: Very difficult to install due to its size. it's not worth the money and effort to install.

Rating + 5 Goliath!


Pros: Awesome cooling. Changeable fan. Looks unique. Use fan controller to adjust CF if you are OC'ing. Make sure you mount this carefully or it will rip your mobo.

Cons: Takes a bit of time to mount this mammoth. Heavy.

Other Thoughts: Antec 900. Intel E8500 OC'd @3.82 ghz. Tuniq Tower 120. MSI P45 Platinum. OCZ Reaper 4Gigs. ATI Radeon HD 4870 512 GDDR5. Western Digital Caviar Green 1 TB. LG Black SATA 22x DVD Burner.

Rating + 2 Worked well for a while...


Pros: Kept CPU cool

Cons: Tricky install, started to rattle.

Other Thoughts: After a year or two with the 120, the top plate that holds the fan started to make small noises, then full-on, loud rattling, no amount of fiddling with it would quiet it. It worked well before that, though.
