In 2008, Thermaltake released the V1 CPU Cooler which had great features and aesthetics which made it an interesting cooler. Now, Thermaltake has released a revised cooler and named it the V1 AX. The main difference between these coolers is the material. The V1 AX is made of aluminum fins and a copper base while the V1 is made entirely of copper.

The V1 AX is one of 8 CPU coolers currently offered by Thermaltake for the Socket 1366 platform, and like many of their coolers it is capable of cooling most modern processors. It is similar to their V1 cooler in every way, except that this cooler has aluminum cooling fins rather than copper, which gives it a different look and ultimately makes it a less expensive solution.

Thermaltake comes to us today with an interesting gadget in the Mobile Fan 12. A unique product, the Mobile Fan 12 is a 120mm USB powered fan meant to sit next to your keyboard or mouse and cool your hands off during the long hours of typing or gaming. Today we'll see just how useful this gadget can be.

Today, we have for review one of Thermaltake’s newest CPU coolers, the Thermaltake TMG IA1. TMG is Thermaltake’s “thermal maximum grade” product group, a series of computer hardware products aimed at the quiet computing audience. You can glean a little bit more information from the forgotten TMG website. In contrast to the brute-force approach of the Thermaltake BigTyp 14 Pro, which I had a chance to review a few weeks ago, the IA1 hopes to provide a more elegant and standard way to cool your CPU without a burden on your ears.

We tested Thermaltake TMG IA1 CPU cooler, which has a "traditional" tower design with U-shaped heatpipes, but using an interesting shape on the heatsink fins. Let's see if this shape makes a difference in performance.

Last week I took a look at a decent notebook cooler from Thermaltake, this week I’ve got another one, but this one is very much different. The product I have for review today is the Thermaltake T3000 Notebook Cooler and what makes it special is that there are no fans so it is a truly silent cooling solution. The T3000 is made from aluminum and has heatpipes built-into it to help keep the notebook that’s on it cool. I’ve tested it out with three different sized netbooks and notebooks to see how it performs. So read on to learn more..

When it comes to CPU coolers, in my eyes Thermaltake have tried hard to design products that stand out from the crowd and are very catching to look at. The SpinQ is definitely one of these products, and we are fortunate to be reviewing one today.

Thermaltake's SpinQ VT heatsink stands 162mm tall and is made from nickel plated aluminum fins soldered over six copper heatpipes, which are really three heatpipes doubled over into a U-shape. Each aluminum fin has a shape that resembles a chain sprocket from a bicycle, but each of the ~50 fins is sequentially rotated 6mm before being threaded over the copper heatpipes. This creates the eleven-sided shape that resembles a drill bit on steroids.

The Thermaltake SpinQ VT is nothing short of impressive. With an impressive body design and heatpipe layout the SpinQ VT is a rock solid cooler. With easy installation, exceptional cooling, and a decent price of $59.99 it's definitely worth taking a look at

Nowadays CPU coolers come in every imaginable size and shape. While some still retain the same basic format, many now sport heatpipes and exotic coatings, even the processor OEM coolers. And some are just downright strange looking, like the Thermaltake SpinQ. The SpinQ VT is slightly different from the original SpinQ in that it tilts the cylinder vertical. The number and dimensions of the fins remain the same, as does the 80mm centrifugal fan, other than LED color. And despite Thermaltake's advertised spec that the fins are now copper as well, the SpinQ VT weighs in at almost 175g less than the SpinQ.
