    I had been wondering if you went all out for air.. or if there was a bang for the buck/mass alternative that was a better idea.
    Its hard to look seriously at other sinks after handling a TRUE though... I know I am addicted!

    Bingo!
    Ditto here. I have at least 9 of them. I did try my first Tuniq Tower 120 on my last build. It's ok, but I like the TRUE better.

    I'll have to try one on my next build, of course unless I come up with another van radiator....

    I've been stuck on the Zalman 9700s for my aircooled machines. How does this compare to that?

    The TRUE will beat just about everything. Scythe just came out with a monster-sized cooler called the Orochi. Not sure how it compares.

    I have two TRUE coolers matched with Minebea fans in push-pull configuration. The Minebea's are expensive, but they have a life expectancy of around 20 years. My grandchild will inherit the fans. lol

    How is the 9700 going temps wise? I've got a 9500, but it isn't really coping with the quad at load. I'd like to stick with Zalmans because I love their design

    Me too!. Summer is coming up here. I think I'll try out a couple on the non-rack mount machines.

    Thx DDT.
