I've looked into that one as well. After reading some reviews on it, I've been left quite unimpressed. I can't say I'd recommend that cooler.

it looks interesting and I know their air coolers are excellent, I would love to see some bench tests on it.

Trust me, the bench tests I've seen show that it's worse than perhaps my 92mm Xigmatek CPU cooler.

Looks kinda gimmicky to me.. I'd splash the cash on a decent air cooler & fan combo.

" Thermally, the Xigmatek AIO-S80DP heatsink is better than the stock Intel Pentium D heatsink by 1.4°C, and with a good 7 dBA more noise for its troubles. The AIO-S80DP operates best with an 85W heat load, so perhaps the heatsink is most ideally suited to Intel Core 2 Duo processors, and not those hot Core 2 Quad chips. Either way, the size of the radiators are the limiting factor here, and Xigamtek would do well to increase them to 120mm in the future."

now compare it with their #1 heatsink... http://www.frostytech.com/articlevie...id=2001&page=5
