Dude that's an awesome deal

Why do people keep trying to compare other coolers to the TRUE. We all know the TRUE is the Holy Grail of air coolers. Nothing to date can compare, and EVERYONE will tell others to get the TRUE.

I have my computer running at 16 idle and 48 max load at 1.45 volts through a 6600 on a xiggy, not even lapped. Just got some of the thermal paste between where the copper pipes meet the aluminum block, then used the two lines method.

Also it will perfom similar to his brother S1283 in a lot of situation IF using
the stock fan.
When under a more extreme overclocking or putting a better fan on, its performance will increase a lot....just like how a TRUE will shine on a higher pressure fan.
