Volcano 7+ & Dragon 478


OK, I'm wondering if these are good coolers or not. I have read a few reviews on the Volcano 7+ and they seem to give it favorable marks, but I can't find anything on the Dragon 478. Anyone out there have a Thermaltake Dragon 478?

Thx
Tom

I haven't seen anything on the 7+, nor have I seen it for sale anywhere yet...

Where did you see the review?

Volcano 7+ & Dragon 478 Stores


Thermaltake was kind enough to point me to Pham Computers
(I checked them out and they have a good rep). I also found them at Thermalmasters. I understand from Thermaltake that these products were just released in the past week. I'm still curious about the Dragon 478, it looks hot but how does it cool?

I wouldn't know about the orb, where the Volcano 7 is actuall full copper, dragon orb is only a copper base still. The Volcano 7 is also adjustable for the Socket 462 and Socket 478, so its pretty useful.

I just put my new cpu in yesterday, but a volcano on top of it. So far I am quite pleased. It is a little bit louder than my super orb that I had before, but its much better than that orb. I would definetly recommend it.

Volcano 7+


Here's the only place I've seen it for sale on pricewatch. It's $43 plus 8 for shipping. I bet it'll go down in price after its newness wears off.
