Infinity or Tuniq Tower?

[nibble]

Which wins, a Tuniq Tower 120 or a bolt mounted Scythe Infinity under the following condtions? :
- Infinity with 2x 1200rpm ~45CFM fans vs. stock TT Fan @ medium
- Infinity with 1800rpm ~60CFM fan vs. stock TT @ medium AND full
Taking noise into consideration also, as I don't want a jet engine in my living room which would be best for my up and coming E6600+QuadGT rig? Thanks guys.

I think infinity with low rpm fans would be better for u.
My Tuniq works great on low, but 55 load is just not my number.
If I turn it on high, it overshadows my OCZ GXS

heheh u might wanna check this out instead of either of those.

So Infinity with 2x fans it is, I was thinking akasa amber's because they look nice or maybe a couple of scythe s-flex 1200rpm.

see, the problem with that is that he can't find those anywhere. unless he goes to japan just for those heatsinks

ya get that

[Scyth3]

You can't go wrong with either of these heatsinks

[nibble]

Yes, I don't think I'll be making an trips to Japan any time soon..

[Romano]

go for infinity..... since it has a lot of flexibilities

i think tower 120 still better than infinity

[bing]

Tried both & got even result, difference were insignificant, TT120 is noiser at max speed, but again even Infinity is better by few degrees and quiter (not that much), still prefer Tuniq just because of it's superior mounting.

[x-kid]

yea i don't think there is gonna be much of a difference between the 2.

[damnnit]

geminii seems to flex the mobo too much but a trip to japan might be awesome.

i had 2 tuniqs and sold one off, now trying infinity. the tuniq was pretty good. you will like either choice. infinity you will save a few dollars though.

[Bbq]

The performance between the Tuniq and the Infinity is quite slim; A few degrees, at best. But, take into consideration other factors (size, flexability, fans, mounting, availability, expandability..) and the Infinity is the CLEAR winner, for me.

[nibble]

Yes Japan would be very cool, anybody been there/live there? What about fans for the infinity any recommendations?

[G.Foyle]

In Infinity vs Tuniq battle Ultra-120 wins.

[nibble]

Great , that brings another factor into the equation the Ultra 120, better than the bolted down infinity with 2 fans??

i have geminiII and infinity and even ultra-120 , my brother lives in japan so he sends me some of those and im gonna sell it here in the Philippines.
I personally liked the Infinity and geminiII. Hope you'll get 1 infinity or geminiII soon.

How does the geminII compare in performance?

[ineedaname]

Seems like this is the new king.

Thermalright ultra 120 PLUS

I hope they fix the mounting on 775 and make a backplate...

[jeffy]

Doesn't NewEgg have them in stock?

if you want a HS you just put on and forget about and never have to play with, tuniq is better out of the box than the infinity is. It also has a way sweeter mounting system, regardless of reports of thumbscrews snapping, which is rather trivial. I have had it off and on atleast 6 times without issue.

The infinity's mount is a PITA and I hated it, I hate all mounts like that.
Its probably quieter out of the box and it probably performs a tad less than the infinity. Once you start tweaking and adding fans you can get better temps with this by a couple degrees.

Tuniq doesn't have a sweet mounting system for AM2 sockets. Bad Tuniq!
