Thermaltake, or Coolermaster

[Syon]

I was looking at a Thermaltake Volcano 11. Is that a decent heatsink? I'll be running a 2500+ possibly OCing it in the future.

Also, would it be good to upgrade to a ball-bearing case fan?

forget the thermaltake.
you want either a vantec aero.
or a coolermaster aero 7 plus

the vantec has the motor on the outside ring of the fan. looks sweet and has good air flow to the center of the heatsink. and cheaper than the cooler master unit.

the cooler master uses' a squirell cage fan. i can tell you it works well from personal experience. its not very loud even at full speed and the 7+ is also variable speed.

I forgot to mention the cooler master heat sink is huge. 700+ grams.

"coolermaster aero 7 plus" i completely agree with nunyadam on this one...its like a work of art with a hint of usabilty for your cpu.

Keeps it cool while looking cool....

Good call Nunyadam

Well i got the coolermaster Aero 7
And right now the CPU temp is sitting at 30C so I can guarantee that it works well. I dont know bout the other one I have never used it.

BTW the CPU is a 1800+
