rmb938 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I am loking to either get the Xigmatech Dark Knight or the TUNIQ Tower 120 Extreme. Has anyone had any experience with the TUNIQ because I haven't heard much about it. I know the Dark Knight is pretty good but maybe someone has something a little better. So what is your input on these two or any others that you think are better? I have a Antec 1200 case so height of the heatsink and air flow is not a problem.

Munkypoo7 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 In actual performance they are about on par with one another, the Tuniq will give you a -2C drop over the DK (Stock stuffies) If you go push-pull on the DK, the DK will win easily over the Tuniq, and cost you about the same AND take up less space in your case. Point: Get the DK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmb938 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Yea I will be having a push pull set up. Now if I do get the DK with am2+ it just has the one bar going across holding it in place. So should i get a converter so I can use the intel 775 bracket to have better contact? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16835708046 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
airman Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 The Tuniq is a large cooler, I firsthandedly reviewed it and there was only a few cm of clearance between it and the side panel on a mid ATX case. Installation was a bit tricky with the motherboard inside the case due to the clearance. Get the DK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
