Not a fan (no pun intended!) of this cooler - looks chintzy with all the plastic & logos, I prefer the metal look, plus the performance is unremarkable & then the installation woes. I guess it's not the worst cooler in the world, but I reckon there's better! EDIT: how much does it cost though (couldn't find in article, but I skimmed quite quickly!)? A low'ish competetive price could make this more worthwhile perhaps.

Nice review. I am curious how it compares in performance to the cooler master hyper 212x turbo.

Performs better than I expected. Thought for sure it would not handle that Devils Canyon at 1.3V.

$79.00. They list it near the end of the review. At that price this thing is a complete waste of money relative to its performance.
