Thermaltake SpinQ Heat Sink & Fan

Comment:
Really cold, excelletn airflow, super fashionable, and easy to set up (fits AMD and Intel). Exceptional price. Its so huge that it hits my RAM Stick heatsinks. not seriously the cooler's fault, but watch out if your RAM has rised heatsinks. What did I do? I bent a couple of layers of the cooler, no huge deal. I cant stop staring inside the tower case.

I can\'t fully grasp what these individuals of saying, when I put the fan controller on high it idles at 19 C, under COD6 it does no higher then 35C. Really good fan A bit also loud and big

Good appears and appears to keep cpu cool. It also moves air more than memory. Mainly because of it's size it was a tiny difficult installing it, but not overly challenging. I haven't stressed this new develop computer with any heavy loads however. But if and when I do I think this cooler well do the job. installed on a i5 750 cpu not overly overclocked.

Pretty Only slightly Ƒ-3Degrees C) cooler then the stock AMD 955 fan. Seriously best heavy (not surprising) and the clip mounting resolution is notimpressive. I assume this would do much better if there was some decent contact stress. there is so small make contact with that you can move the point around following mounting...that just ain't appropriate. Save the money and commit it on a differnt cooler. i dont feel this is the 1.

It worked It ran 5 degrees hotter than with the stock fan that came with my Phenom II 965.Granted it came with a fantastic cooler but i nevertheless anticipated a lot better

Extremely effortless installation on the P5ND-SLI motherboard. Came with tons of brackets for numerous unique capabilities. It doesn't get in the way of anything. Fits perfectly! I employed the Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Paste, and my Q6600 stays at 25C, even below a substantial load. Barely audible, the blue LED looks amazing! Some of the clamps gave me a challenging time, but totally not one thing to be mad about. Perfect fit and works fine! Satisfied obtain, fantastic overclocking! :).

Very satisfied with this fan. Though, I've not pushed OC, but, temps so far have stayed beneath 45C.SetupASUS Crosshair IV FormulaAMD 1100T4Gb G.talent Flare2 x Sapphire Radeon HD 6870Thermaltake element situation three pin energy connector. With the size of this, make sure your case is huge adequate and consider the space your side fan requires up.Also, with the heat sink on my ram, I couldn't set up this the proposed way. I just turned it 180 degrees and seems to be operating properly. There's just a tiny bit of clearance between the ram and the heat pipes on this fan.

Looks great, matched all the blue leds i have in my case and looked excellent in my HafX. Didnt cool better than the stock cooler. at idle CPU was 27 degrees celcius and underneath complete load hit 56 degrees celcius following 5 min of prime95. If it cooled at all I would have kept it jus cuz of how it looked. Retured it and picked up a XSPC Rasa 750 RS360 kit. Hopefully it cools much better than this.

looks awesome in my case, i have an intake fan blowing right into it so cooling is not prob. Incredibly quiet on total force, most other turbine fans like this i have seen are loud as hell, but this is incredibly quiet, similar ammount of sound as case fans so noise is no problem. moves a lot of air. excellent cost. no important ones, just the fan LED's are a tiny dim, would be much better if they had been brighter, but oh well. ideal looking cooler iv noticed in a whilst

Good cpu cooler, keeps my i5 quite cool and looks good in my case. Price isn't poor compared to other cpu coolers out there on the marketplace. I knocked off a single egg because I identified the mounting screws (whatever you want to contact them) type of a pain to make positive they were secure in the motherboard as well as a tight fit to get your hands between the cpu cooler to the mother board to safe them. Nevertheless once you get them correctly aligned and in place it has a firm hold and isn't going anywhere. I've relied on Thermaltake for fans and my scenarios for a long time. I rely on this organization to preserve my computer system running cool and hunting fashionable. Thermaltake has lived up to my requirements and I will continue to be a loyal consumer. Great product and yes, this cpu cooler does work with the i5 AND i7 Intels.

Quite blue LED Really significant. Even although my case has the PSU at the bottom of the case, the mobo power pin could barley reach due to how substantial the fan was. Plastic push pins could hardly safe onto motherboard even with the huge quantity of pressure applied. Fan failed soon after 4-5 months of use. For the price tag, I anticipated a bit far more bang for my buck. three stars for how it performed when it did perform and when the pins have been in.

Amazing style! Looks like some thing from the 'SAW' films! Big! Had to mount my 120mm side case fan to the outside of the side panel result in I couldn't close it any longer with it mounted on the inside like ahead of.. Cooling a Intel i5 LGA1156 quad core 2.8g processor on a ASUS P7P55D-E LX motherboard along with 8g of Kingston DDR3 #KHX1600C9D3B1K2ǚGX memory.My video evaluation is posted on YouTube beneath 'rvr2' .

runs cool. cpu never passes 106 F. fan off it never ever passes 122 F. (Intel Core two Duo two.2Ghz) did not buy from newegg bought from an electronics store none fits in my lenovo 300 K100 series Desktop Computer greater cfm of airflow would be good. its currently super quiet on high. i think they could of pushed it additional

I genuinely like the look of this HS that was a definate plus for my Rig. It's Big, I have a Coolermaster Stacker Case with the Side Panel that adds xtra 4 120mm fans. Nicely I had to remove a single of the Fans for this thing to fit perfectly. Even although this issue is a Monster it is very lightweight, and a correct Masterpiece if you really like lights, wish they had optional colors for the LED's. Just make confident to read the directions on installation, quite straightforward to make a mistake on install if you dont do exactly what they say. I've put very a handful of Heatsinks in my Rig's more than the years and this 1 took a small extra pressure on the Pins to get a tight fit. Im really thinking of adding a Bracket on the Back of my MB for it. Properly I bought this HS for a Gaming Rig I had custom built about 18months ago. Nicely this Heatsink essentially became the start of a entire new Gaming Rig. Funny how that can occur. So mainly because I had the HS as I started a new make I was careful in my RAM Decision. You will need Low Profile RAM as well as making sure your CPU Socket isn't as well close to your DIMM Slots. This HS will definately interfere with High Profile RAM, but the advantage of low profile RAM is that this thing blows cool air more than the RAM thereby maintaining that cool as properly which is a definate plus. I purchased 2 sets of this RAM G.Skill 4GB ƒ x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1600 Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ which was a perfect fit for this HS. If you just maintain all this in thoughts with your construct you will have yourself a Fantastic Setup. Oh yeah Temps: Idle 32-37 -Full Load: 42-49. Intel i5 750 OC'd three.six

Outside of the truth it appear amazing and is relatively unique. This item is solid. My AMD x4 955 3.2 by no means gets also hot and slows or shuts down. I can't use the MOBO fan control wires but identified out with the way my rigs set up I don't truly want it. None truly outdoors of the truth that the directions were not as useful as they really should have been.

Effective, close to silent, attractive as hell! Noticed around 7c drop from the stock fan. Had to upgrade from a micro-atx case to a mid-atx case so this would fit. Also, the fins on this make it a bit tedious to apply with the AM(x) socketed motherboards. Might be a bit less complicated for most if this is installed outside of the case. and mounted soon after.

OC'ed a E6600 from the 2.4 Ghz stock to three. Ghz with no a sweat. . I retain my fan setting mid-way and moves lots of air, even on full the fan moves a lot of air but stays fairly quiet. General A++ This size is fairly substantial. I use a ATX Total Tower so its not an issue for me but any person with a ATX Mid Tower may possibly see some difficulties. Also make sure the placement doesn't impact your ram placement on your board. Employing this with Intel E6600 and EVGA 750i F.T.W., and Group Xtreem 2x2GB DDR2 Pc-850. Been running solid Overclocked for over a year, and still no difficulties, keeps my CPU cold.

Quiet, cool seeking. Comes with a blue-neon light (not the purple as depicted). Also has a manually adjustable fan with short cable. Rivals the Zalman CNPS 9700 - works just as effectively. Fantastic cost. The cable for adjusting the speed is as well brief. You can not access it unless you open your computer situation. I utilized this effectively in an AMD x4 965 build.

Simple to install, quite lightweight, but not ridiculously fragile. An interesting, unconventional design (compared to a Correct-form heatsink design). Theremaltake gets a effectively deserved nod here for trying something new and thinking outdoors the box. Cools greater than Intel's stock heatsink and fan at stock settings. Quiet. Too expensive for how it performs. The SpinQ is priced the identical as high overall performance HSFs that overclockers and hardcore gamers use, but the cooling you get from it is only moderately greater than the stock cooler. It's fantastic, but not fantastic, not ์ or ๖ wonderful. This is specifically accurate when it comes to overclocking and if you're running the CPU at heavy loads and own a mid size case, such as an Antec 900 or Awesome Master HAF 922 due to the fact the SpinQ vents the hot air around it's cylinder in virtually 360 degrees not in one direction toward the back or leading of your case. So all that hot air is fighting with your fans and blowing onto your ram, graphics card(s) and motherboard, raising the ambient temperature of your case, rather of getting neatly pushed out through the prime or back of your situation, as your case fans were developed to do.So the bottom line is if you obtain the SpinQ, you're paying for it's cool design and/or looks, and that's about it. I bought the SpinQ since at the time there had been few other selections for soon after market 1156 HSFs. I was getting an i7 860, knew the stock HSF was sub par and went with the combo deal with the SpinQ without having researching it adequate, my mistake.For reference, here's a list of 1156 compatible HSFs that newegg now sells. On the high finish price and/or performance wise: XIGMATEK Dark Knight S1283V, Noctua NH-U12P SE2, ZALMAN CNPS10X, Prolimatech Megahalems Rev.B, Noctua NH-D14, Vigor Monsoon III LT Dual, and the Thermaltake SpinQ. At mid range we have COOLER MASTER Hyper 212, Thermaltake Contac 29 and ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro Rev two. There are also additional mounting kits for the 1156 out now that may operate with older 775񳅆 HSFs. Also, Corsair has a self-contained water cooling unit the Cooling Hydro Series CWCH50-1. Looks intriguing, but so did the SpinQ. Anyway, read critiques online prior to you acquire and your safest bet for cooling below 贄 is possibly an air cooled True-form heatsink desi

Cools Your Processor , Looks Fantastic, It's Shiny.Went from 38 at idle to 60's at load- To 24 at idle to 38 at load.!!!on 5400 Black 64x2 Does wiggle about a bit on AM2, Its Gigantic! For the men and women who complain about fan speed knob-becoming a manual adjustment, Just unplug it and throw it out.Your MB will manage fan speed. Checked this with speedfan.Runs around 600 rpm @ idle and around 1600 @ load..

The stock CPU fan would let the processor idle at 90+ Fahrenheit ࿀.two Celsius) and add 30F to it though below stress. With the Spin q, I under no circumstances go above 84Fྼ.8C) beneath tension and 78Fྐྵ.5C) idle. Noisy, but I can live with it due to it's shear awesomeness. Make a version of this that doesn't take as much space up, but has a lot more 2-bearing fans; as to decrease noise.

Functions wonderful. Keeps my CPU way cooler than the stock one. This thing is fairly big. I had to flip it around when I filled up all my RAM slots. I'm utilizing this on my Phenom II X2 (@ X4 and 3.6Ghz) and below extreme load it doesn't get larger than about 36C.

Definitely beautiful. Like the dispersal of airflow from the cage - cools nearby elements on the mobo. I purchased this for use with an EVGA X58 758 mobo in an open acrylic tech station (Microcool Banchetto 101) and looks had been my paramount interest, as this system wouldn't be seriously overclocked beyond ELEET tuning, and the Spin-Q would be in open ambient air. No PWM. Sure you can just turn it up and leave it at complete, but the added cabling for the controller is messy in an open case. Sort of like purchasing a Carrera 4 and the whale tail motor doesn't operate. And I just don't like (trust?) push pins - even from Tt. Installation choices limited by heatpipes conflicting with caps on my EVGA 758 mobo. Tt - please take into account supplying an optional backplate. Buy it for the excellent style. Also, even figuring out the dimensions won't insure a clean fit/install. It would be fantastic if manufacturers provided low rez scaled CAD drawings to see the 3 dimensional fit.

Utilized this on my AMD Phenom II X4 810 Deneb 2.6GHz Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Processor on a GIGABYTE GA-790FXTA-UD5 AM3 AMD 790FX mobo. It was worth each penny. Looks Awwwssoooomme Runs COOOOOL and I Can\'t hear it running The install was abit tricky, had to mod the clamp for the AM3 socket I was mounting it on. And it was a cumbersome fit BUT man it looks reallly excellent COOLS unbelievably and you Cannot hear it running Did I mention it looks reallly great COOLS unbelievably and you Can not hear it running
