no it is not I have both the enzotech won't keep my quad under 80c when using 1.50v. the ultra extreme keeps all 4 cores under 58c and is half as loud. The Enzotech is great for dual cores but cannot handle a extreme overclocked quad. My ultima 80 even beats the enzotech using only a 90 mm fan. read this review http://www.anandtech.com/casecooling...spx?i=3068&p=1

I think the cooler will be limited by your case ....

There is a cure.... it's called Prevention.
that because it is a Thermalright ultra 120 not a Thermalright Ultra Extreme 120, the Ultra Extreme has two more heatpipes.

Thanks.
The Xtreme is $56.95, and the regular is $59.99. Go figure....
Easy choice to make.

If you live in Canada, DirectCanada has the TRUE for 48.42. What a steal! : O

Intel's atom is a terrible chip.
Here is the Thermalright Ultra 120 for 39.00 and it is a very good cooler second best. At that price I would buy it instead.http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/thul1.html

Corsa is right, i'm not sure how big the Zalman case is, just check if the TRUE would fit inside.
the best aircooling? well... there is the true, then the other thermalright products.. then nothing for a long time, then the rest.
in case you run into size issues with a true, the ultima 90 is much smaller but still performs good.
another +1 for the Ultra-120, and I dont even use air!

Sometimes, it's not your time. Sometimes, you have to make it your time. Sometimes, it can ONLY be your time.
Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme
no question... lapped, and "ducktape modded" w/ 2 fan's the best air cooler ever made i think
