Agreed. I saw this the other day on Newegg and now we have a review on it.
Looks to be damn good imo.. plus its cheaper than some of the other high-end coolers.

I was impressed with it. Every once in a while they really get it right on the money. The Big Typhoon was another example of one they got right!
