Thermaltake uses all copper (or copper core) bases, thin fin or heatpipe designs, and most units use fans that do over 70cfm at full load (80mm fans).

You can't get much better than that cept using a thermalright XP-120 coupled with a nice Panaflo 120mm fan pushing 110cfm. That is the ultimate in air cooling.

I know, and it seems all fine and dandy... but unless they've seriously improved their designs in the past year or so, I haven't heard of a good Thermaltake cooler worth buying. I always heard amazing thins about Zalman, and picked up my current Zalman 'flower' cooler at a tradeshow in tdot a few years ago... love it! My ambient temp is higher than the processor temp, always! :lol:
