There are only very brief reviews on this cooler and as Christmas being only around the corner I was set on buying a Thermalright true with some scythe s flexes to cool my q6600 @3.2.

However browsing asus website I stumbled across a very tasty looking cpu cooler (LINK) http://www.asus.com/news_show.aspx?id=13245.

I cooling offerings from Asus have been sub standard but this looks to be pretty neat.

So I would be interested to hear some of yours views on this cooler and or direct me to a more in depth review of this cooler.

Thankyou very much

You should consider getting a TRUE there awesome and its one of the best cooler out there and best cooler with a pull and push fan setup with the right fans.

Asus coolers are more bling bling then cooling performance prolly.

I bet it'll be ok since it has 4 8 mm heatpipes and 2 fans on a 92mm fan size heatsink.

maybe change the fans / remove those horrid fan guard cases.
