Hmmm...That sure looks familiar

Who do you suppose Thermaltake is ripping off this new design from?

I hope Thermalright sues those slobs.

The two designs seem oddly similar, but until just now, I thought Thermaltake and Thermalright were basically the same company (sorta like Speeze and Spire).

Either one looks to be a nice product, regardless.

I just bought two Thermalright SK-7 for my new systems. I'll be quite pissed if the Thermaltake's end up being cheaper and just as efficient.

The SK-7 is just one step below a SLK800.

Take a look at this review. It pits Thermaltake's best HSF, the Volcano 11, against a SK-7. Two different fans are tried on the SK-7, one loud, one quiet.

I also bought it with a Panaflo H1A and Arctic Silver Ceramique compound. According to the review, it's quite a cooler for the price (I paid 31U$ for the heatsink & fan, including shipping...here)

Well I don't overclock at all....

 

[honold]

i guess i won this round!

I stopped overclocking when my older computer corrupted some big zips because of the overclock. Well, running a BX motherboard at 124 MHz FSB with all four mem slots occupied might have something do to with the matter... I only max mem timings nowadays. Maybe I should try to unlock the multiplier from my 1800+... Nah, I can't be bothered.

The SK-7 is a first-class heatsink I've paired mine with a Papst 8412 NG 80mm fan and the obligatory Arctic Silver 3 and gotten very pleasing results for not a huge amount of cash 8)
