I saw this video last night, I was quite impressed to see that the dark knight 2 can compete against even closed looped systems. First off just in general it really is a beautiful cpu cooler, but then to see how it performs was impressive. I know my brother has a xigmatek cooler in his build, definitely will be looking into these more.

wow im very impressed. i was actually considering using two of these for a dual xeon setup. how does it perform with slower fans (~1200rpm)? 30dba is a little loud for my preferences but i'd be curious to know the performance hit i'd take from switching out the fans. i'd be using noctua nf-f12s

Slower fan at 1200rpm will have minimal impact on performance, We did a test on it before, normally we test it at around 1500rpm smile.gif
