Not worth the money... it was decent with lower wattage CPUs, but for a quad (especially an i7) a TRUE of Megahalem will perform better while costing less and not requiring extra power

Legitreview Bottom Line: The Ultra ChillTec Thermoelectric CPU Cooler is by far one of the best hybrid air coolers on the market today. If you are looking for an outstanding and high performing cooler without having to go to water, this is the cooler for you!

No BS but my rig idle's @ around 38c to 40c, not bad I think. Prime for 13 hrs. temps reached close to upper 85's c on all cores with 8 workers, not sure if temps on prime are okey but no BSOD. OC @ 3.66 on a 920.

No BSOD but these temps are a bit high if you have normal ambient temps (20-25C).
Most people with a TRUE or Megahalem on a 920 reach 4.0 in the upper 70s.

If your ambient temps get any higher this summer, you'll be getting very close to a thermal shutdown.

Like Tiga says....current aircoolers outperform the Chilltec...
Megahelem or TRUE with push-pull config...
