Tired of your cooler conflicting with the memory, mounting, video cards, and even the 8-pin? Thermaltake has a solution to all your CPU cooling woes.
Aircooling
During the past decade PC Cooling has clearly advanced but nowhere near compared to other interior hardware parts like storage media, mainboards, CPUs and graphics cards. Of course there were some bold attempts from certain manufacturers like Danamics that tried to introduce liquid metal cooling to the masses but although their last solution yielded quite impressive results its price tag made it very unattractive to consumers especially since one could get a more complete water-cooling kit/loop at around the same price tag for use with both the CPU and GPU. Unfortunately the trend didn't continue and so today we still need to pick between the regular and all time classic air-coolers (U/C designs) or the more advanced and most of the time better water-coolers (AIO/Kits) both of which are more than capable in delivering on what they promise. However there's always been clearance issues with most of the tower design air-coolers that forced people either to purchase low-profile memory kits or change the placement of the cooler resulting in reduced performance. Well Thermaltake seems to have a solution to that problem with their latest NIC (Non Interference Coolers) line of air-coolers.

Overall performance was better than we had expected on a stock running Sandy Bridge. During this test the heatsink performed great with very little fan noise.

For those of you unsatisfied by the stock heat spreaders on performance memory there are a handful of after market RAM heat spreaders like Thermaltake's RamOrb memory heatsink to consider. The Thermaltake RamOrb heat spreaders are sold individually, and each comes with four sheets of thermal interface material so it can conceivably be installed on two sticks of memory in its lifetime.

As computers get more and more powerful with each advance in computing technology, it is inevitable that the thermal envelope is continually being pushed to higher levels. For this reason, there will always be a large market for aftermarket CPU cooling.

We tested the Thermaltake Silent 1156, a CPU cooler with a tower heatsink, two eight mm heatpipes and a 90 mm fan. Check it out!

Although released in August of 2009, there is little doubt that heatsink manufacturers like Thermaltake are receiving more interest in their Socket 1156 solutions thanks to Intel's release of the new Core processor family at CES back in January. Based on a new 32nm manufacturing technology, these new processors produce much less heat than their 45nm counterparts. But like every heatsink provider, Thermaltake knows there are users who want better-than-stock performance without sacrificing noise or sinking a lot of money into a cooling solution (no pun intended). Does the $29 Thermaltake Silent 1156 fit into this mold?

We tested a low-profile CPU cooler from Thermaltake, the SlimX3, which has an 80-mm fan and two heatpipes.

A well designed product from Thermaltake with good performance and high price. It didn't performed exactly how we would wanted, compared with other products.

Mit dem SpinQ stößt Thermaltake auf Land vor, dass schon seid geraumer Zeit keine Hersteller mehr betreten hat. Thermaltake benutzt bei diesem Kühler einen für den Kühlermarkt eher ungewöhnliches Radiallüfter-Prinzip. Im Test wollen wir sehen ob sich Thermaltakes neuer "lone fighter" behaupten kann.
