Review: Thermalright Ultima-90 ES vs TT120 (56k warn)

[WSX]

I got a reply from Thermalright they said they delayed the release till mid-july :<

aaaah so mid-july, Intel price drops around the same time, wallet takes another beating!

[BIKeINSTEIN]

Sorry for bumping up this old thread.

It's almost mid-July; any news on the Ultima 90 front?

[apexracing]

I'm rather excited to hear more about the Ultima-90, as well. Specifically, if they plan to do a s939 clip for it. I still have a s939 x2 that could use some extra cooling.

Has anyone seen this available to be purchased yet?

[CERO]

hey I got again a mail from them they said 25 july , a day before intel price drop the product would be officially released!

I pray to God that this lives up to it's expectations.
It would be perfect for me, because the larger heatsinks are bit size-prohibitive for my case / PSU set-up.
If the heatsink is over 110mm wide, there's not enough room for me.
I believe what I read about the ultima-90, there should be no problems with clearance - and the cooling will be as good or better than the Ultra 120's.

Fingers crossed.

Why don't you get a socket 939 kit from someone using their Ultra120 on a C2D- like i did for my friend's ultra120 Extreme.
i.e. if you can live with the usual 'blowing hot air towards the psu' orientation on most 939 mobos unless u have an UltraD or likes or some case like the nine hundred that have nice exhaust at the top and psu at the bottom.

I hope the s-clip meant for HR-01/SI-128 fits the Ultima90 even with its extra pipes- like how a few frnds use it for their ultra120s to make it face the rear case fan- will be one awesome combo for old but still functional 939 dual core setups.

Awesome.
I am so anxious- though i have a few nice 120mm fans, i already purchased a couple of nice 92mm fans for it from Sidewinders.
Finding good 80 and 120 mm fans in India is a pain- 92mms (esp something good enough) are almost non-existent.

Toes crossed too here- but i have a feeling it will be one nice lil rockstar in its own right.
Hoping to revive an old Wavemaster - sweetlooking cabby but Ultra120 is no go in that.

Found it listed here for $44.99 but it shows Out of Stock! Thermalright Ultima-90I CPU Cooler

[Start]

So this doesn't include a fan right?

[apexracing]

I'm a bit out of touch with these new coolers, is this ( http://www.heatsinkfactory.com/Therm...t-p-16603.html ) the bit I need to use the Ultima-90 with s939?

Sorry about this, I haven't looked at CPU coolers in almost two years.

yes, thats the bracket used to mount the coolers (the thermalright ones, not valid for other coolers) on s939.

Do you think the Ultima-90i will interfear with any of the side fans on the Cm stacker 830 evo (black)? I have the same case

Hey amandpm, I think when u use the Xtreme 120 it might not fit, the Height is 16.05 centimeters. However the Ultima-90I is according to the specs 13,90 cm ( 14cm) tall, maybe it might fit, I have to measure it , good that u remind me, almost forgot to do it, before purchasing it.

*edit Oke a m8 of mine, Got a Big Typhoon VX with same case, he said he cant use the side fan on that area, if I take it in account, the VX meassure a Height of 10,3cm + 2.5cm fan on it which makes it = 12,8cm tall. So ques u cant use it but u have to meassure it, so I cant confirm it.

[Start]

I'm pretty sure this thing will fit.This thing is about ~14cm tall and the Enzotech Ultra-X is about 14.7 cm tall. You can clearly see from Chaos's rig with the Ultra-X in a Stacker with the 4 side fans as well

So it SHOULD fit just fine.

[CERO]

Thnx for the confirmation speedfreak

Yea Thanks for the confirmation speedfreak, I would like to have all the fans there

Yeh i didnt think it would be this long...

Everyone waiting for the shortness... do measure before buying, It's not THAT much shorter.

[LuckyNV]

Hey Battle, I'm particularly waiting for this cooler for my bros comp, I need a strong tower cooler and isn't heavy as he transports his comp to uni and back home every term by car, assuming I use bolt through mounting, would this cooler be alright in your opinion?

I don't see any other strong low-weight cooler, I can't source an Enzo in UK, plus I <3 Thermalright :>
