TropicalPreist Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 I think that heatsink is a complete ripp off from the Spire Thermax Eclipse II just saying. http://www.frozencpu.com/products/11423/cpu-spi-28/Spire_TherMax_Eclipse_II_Five_DT_Heatpipe_Universal_CPU_Cooler_Sockets_775_1156_1366_939_AM2_AM2_AM3_SP984B1-V2_.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 15 bucks less I'll take the SilenX version. The black chrome look of the Spire is appealing but 15 bucks is 15 bucks for a similar piece.

F13Bubba Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Nice review. It just further goes to show that I should get the NH-D14 lol. I would, if I had the money I lied, I just didn't look close enough. I thought the graph labels were missing. My bad. Good review brosef Edited August 18, 2010 by F13Bubba Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccokeman Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 The color coding does not work or is to hard to understand? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 The color coding does not work or is to hard to understand? I think it works fine though sometimes the product associated with each color could stand to have a slightly bigger text size, at least to me. Anyways, for the price of that cool you get one nice performer. Sure it may not compete with something costing twice as much, but should it? Nope.

I still wish we had your cooler in the comparison, that's still my best cooler for the money (Sunbeam CCF 120) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
