Coolermaster V8, V10

[Omastar]

Wow. What's the point? Another 7 pounds of heatsink for 2C better temps over a TRUE? Hey, guys, ever heard of "diminishing returns"?

Also, what's the deal with this Jeff guy who posts on expreview? For someone with such a typically American name, he sure epically fails at English.

no way this beats TRUE (unless massssive heatloads).. Or at least I, with my 0 heatsink knowledge think so :p The v12 looks weird, why is there such a gap in the front fins :X

Cant imagine how damn frustrating will be to mount one of those monsters :X

Well, the 2C was just a number I pulled out of the air--2C would be a quite a feat, considering.

WOW those things are giantic Wait I don't think the V8 as big as my IFX-14

[Junimrox]

that sucks, like every coolermaster ... its like a 3yr old kid playing with aluminum but with no engineering, just size...

[pcaddict]

V8 looks like Scythe ninja and V10 looks like Scythe orochi to me.

[poohball]

V8 looks like Scythe ninja and V10 looks like Scythe orochi to me.

and seems like both V8 and V10 will suffer horrible death.........just like other CM coolers....

the result is terrible.....

[NonDecepticon]

Thanks for the data, Angelreaper! Puts my mind at ease for not waiting for a new crop of coolers and going with the TRUE. Heatpipe designs seem to be a delicate balance between efficiency and mediocrity. I've wondered why Alpha and Swiftech didn't join the fray.

Not quite sure, but his v8 results do not sit in line with ones ive seen all over the internet.

[HuffPCair]

Man those are some major paper weights. You could kill a big animal with the V10 thats for sure

[Vapor]

Not quite sure, but his v8 results do not sit in line with ones ive seen all over the internet.

Seems fine to me, close to the TRUE, not quite there though

[Klarko]

when can we expect to see some results of these beasts? this thread was made a while ago..

Heh...try about nine posts before yours.

[oohms]

I wonder when the V10 comes out

[roofsniper]

wow i have always seen the v8 but the v10. that thing is massive. its gotta be the largest cpu air cooler i have seen. much bigger than the orochi.

[Caveman787]

Well then you havn't seen the V12 they had them all at a 2008 showcase.

you can't be serious? this is more of an e-peen thing than it is useful.

[gatecrasherlok]

I can imagine the v8 being of some use. The v8's design is nearly adentical to the thermalright ifx, but 2 fans attached already. Only difference being it having a plate at the top with a garish v8 logo on it.

The v12 is a monster indeed, it looks ready to tear your motherboard apart. It also looks as if it has some sort of cooler for the ram which is a good idea but really, ram does not get that hot really. Secondly I wonder what the clearance is between the ram and cooler as some heatsinks like the ocz reapers may have a problem fitting it in.

[tiro_uspsss]

that V10 is insane

[lkiller123]

Then again on the V12 it looks like the two heatpipes on the sides are just there for show, from the picture doesn't even look like they make contact with the base.

Well, if you look at it more carefully, there are those nickel plate over them

[knissel]

Hmm yeah results are sad

[lkiller123]

well actually they meant V12 for the V8....
you guys know that right?
