Worth the 30$
Comment:
Great fan, easy to install if you know your way around a computer. I overclocked my athlox x2 245 to 3.5ghz and the temp is the same as it was with the stock cooler with a 15% increase in cpu speed. I recommend it fully. Although, since there are two fans it come with a splitter that turns two 3 pin plugs into one 3 pin plug. This is problematic if your motherboard has a 4 pin cpu plug. So buy a 3 pin to 4 pin adapter if you dont want your bios to beep at you everytime you boot your comp up. :) otherwise i recommend this fan entirely.

takes a while to put in
Comment:
This cpu cooler takes a while to put in if your using the 775 socket because it has a backing plate for the back side of the mother board so you need to remove the mother board to install it correctly on a 775 socket unless you have a tower with a removeable inner side panel, other then that the cooling capability is great and the looks are very nice also, i bought 92mm red fans to replace the stock black fans and really looks sharp, its bulky also but a great cooler.

Cool and Quiet
Comment:
The cooler dropped my max load temperature by over 15 degrees C and is relatively quiet. But the noise level is acceptable for a two fan cooler.

Cold Cooler Coolest !!!
Comment:
Was easy to install over my I7 920 and keeps it very cool right around 38 to 40. It is larger in size than default fan that came with the I7 920 but it fits just right. Make sure to read insructions that comes with it and make sure to use thermal compound correctly. All in all very nice fan.

works well, but takes up a lot of space
Comment:
I like this unit. Good quality and quiet. A little tricky to find the arrows giving air flow direction.

Cool and Quiet
Comment:
I just received and installed this fan. I was very happy with how many installation adapters came with it. Installation was a bit tricky, I had to remove my entire motherboard, but it went in like a charm after that. It's keeping my AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000 at an awesome 31 degrees Celsius. Best of all, I can barely hear it!!! Great buy!

good cooler
Comment:
This is an excellent cooler, it really does a good job of keeping the cpu cool even while overclocking. The only issue I have was the box I received did not include the mounting hardware for a 939 cpu socket as tiger direct advertised, so I contacted cooler master and their shipping me the hardware for free.

Cool deal
Comment:
I've had this cooler long enough to give an honest reweiw. I love it. It droped my cpu temp and killed the blue screen of death. WARNING: Installs easily!!! But you will need to feel comfortable removing and reinstalling your motherboard

Great cooler
Comment:
Using it on a Q6700 CPU, socket 775. At first the back plate of the cooler was doing something like bending the mother board and computer wouldn't post. After replacing the plate with the 4 screws provided as an alternative everything is working. Keeps CPU very cool, overclocked at 3.0Ghz, maximum temperature reached is 59 degrees celsius.

Great CPU Cooler
Comment:
This cooler dropped my cpu temperature by about 4 or 5 degrees celcius. The only problem was that the fans were on the cooler backwards from what I needed. After installing it on my motherboard it was blowing the hot air into the case. I removed the fans and changed them side-for-side and now it is blowing the direction I need.

Keeps everything cold to the touch
Comment:
when i received this i was new to the installation of it so it took some time. but once i got it all put together this thing made everything really cool and it was so much quieter than the stock one. This fan is big (almost touching the top of my case) but its big for a reason.

Huge!
Comment:
Installed it yesterday on a Asus P5Q board, and the cpu temp was about 28C with first boot. Let it run all day today, and when I got home the temp was 33C. Looks nice in my Extreme Black RaidMax Smilodon case. Price not bad either!

Well worth the price.
Comment:
This product is well worth the price. It keeps my CPU operating at a nice cool temp. For those who didn't know what direction the fan blows, you will find the fan direction and wind direction on the side where it connects to the CPU. I would highly reccoment this product.

Keeps everything cool! but its pretty big
Comment:
This thing is amazing, i heard it was big but got it anyways for my phenom 2 x4 940...keeps it around 45c..the fans are silent and i cant even here them(wish they ran a little faster tho). Even tho it fit my mobo it still took a lot of room, i have a midtower and have about 1 in. until it touches the edge. I have a Gigabyte GA-MA790GP-UD4H and it fits perfectly. Make sure you have the room this things a beast!

Good, but Difficult
Comment:
This thing is louder than all my case fans (stock Cooler Master HAF 932), even at low speeds. The install directions were difficult to decipher and did not show which way it was to be installed. Performance wise, it keeps my I7 920 at a low temperature and mounts very securely. Good, but loud.

Good CPU Fan... easier to install then OEM
Comment:
I bought this CPU fan because the stock Intel one was being reported as it being garbage. I wasn't impressed with Intel's setup. Pros: 1. Mounts more secure then Intel's stock CPU fan 2. Duals fans and large heat sink with copper pipes 3. Keeps system at a regular 35C with Antec 900 Extreme gaming system -- Intel was jumpping around from 35 - 45 at idle speeds Cons: 1. Instructions require close examination 2. EVGA monitoring system shows that the CPU fan sensor readings go on and off every 9 seconds (refreshing sensor?) 3. Thermal paste is complete garbage -- had to go with Radio Shack thermal paste 4. No indication of air flow (no arrows to point which direction wind flows) Overall I'm happy with the purchase... I haven't tested the performance with gaming yet but it seems like it's going to be better in the long run. The install was done in about 1 - 2 hour range with a few hiccups... I didn't unplug everything.

Overclockers budger dream!
Comment:
I have an i7 920 processor, it runs at 2.67ghz. i have it overclocked to 3.7ghz easy with this cpu cooler. it idles at about 27c and under prime 95 it has never gone over 65c. During games it stays around 40c - 50c I bought this cooler and the OCZ freeze thermal paste. you will not be dissapointed with this cooler! it is such an awesome cooler for the price.
