HSF Decision

[TMT]

Hey!

I'm currently deciding upon a new HSF, and I have two in mind, which are:

Thermaltake Extreme Volcano 12
Zalman Flower CNPS6000-CU

In my opinion, I'm probably going to be better off with the ThermalTake, but I have heard some good things about the Zalman, plus the way the Zalman is shaped; it gives me the idea that heat dissipation will be quite good.

Anyway, I need some opinions on this. Please share any knowledge and/or person experiences with these products, etc.

Thanks.

"Thermal heatsink..."

I'd prefer the Thermaltake over any outher. I have one. Quite well made i must say.

I suppose both would work well....only way to find out would be real world review of your own...but yeah I'm partial to thermaltake so I'd go with them over Zalman

How is it with noise levels? Do they seem quite loud? It's just that I've seen a few comments around saying that it can give out some fairly loud noise.

y don't u goto newegg n check out the reviews that both d products got? that way, u can b sure which is better.

either way man when you want high performance air cooling you're talking a little louder dBa's =P

Thermaltake (in general) is not very loud.

 

[Nubius]

well but still....high performance cooling means your gonna add a little more noise though although yeah I know they also present themselves on being the 'silent solution'
