Thermaltake is pretty well-known for making average-performing cpu heatsinks. I wouldn't expect anything spectacular performance-wise from this.

qft.... the only TT hs that has any praise from us ocers is the big typhoon.... but thats sub par compared to todays top dog... the Thermalright Ultra 120 X... id be willing to bet you could get a TRUE for the same or less of a price than that TT hunk o junk.

Seems like I read a review on it somewhere not too long ago. IIRC it was about average in performance at best.

Yea, the Big Typhoon was one of the top dogs during the Intel s478/ AMD s939 era, but it certainly doesn't cut the mustard these days. It definitely was their performance flash in the pan.

Thermaltake Tower 112 is a good one though. HEAVY, but it's a really nice heatsink and works really really well in a ducted setup.

I like it's design/looks, too bad it's not all that great performance wise

personally my philosophy with thermaltake coolers are they look much better than they actually perform. that the V1 for example. Only exception is the big typhhon vx
