Don't buy, waste of money. For that much, just spend a little more and go watercooling and still get a lot better temps.

I had an Ultra Chilltec for a while. It was okay but it wasn't worth the price, with coolers like the Thermalright Ultra 120 on the market which has similar performance for much less. Also I found the Chilltec a big pain to install and remove due to its bulky design. To get a screw driver in to screw in or unscrew the mounting screws was a real challenge.

As everyone has said, don't get that.
