BCCHardware and Tweaknews have posted a review of the high performance Cooler Master V6 GT CPU cooler.

Let's see what they had to say:

  • BCCHardware:

    "The build quality of the V6 GT is very good and exactly what I expected from Cooler Master. Cooler Master is known for producing high quality products and the V6 GT is no different.

    Overall we were happy with the performance of the V6 GT in our testing. At full fan speeds the V6 GT puts up some pretty decent performance numbers, but running the fans at full speed does produce a fair amount of noise and chances are good you probably won't want to leave the fans running at full speed. Even at low speeds the V6 GT was easily able to keep up with our 140 Watt CPU and still offer a decent improvement in cooling over a stock cooling solution."

  • Tweaknews:

    "Mounting solutions are very robust and easily installed and the overall fit and finish of the V6 GT is excellent. Retailing for around $70 US online, the V6 GT is reasonably priced given the fact that the top-performing cooler in the comparison is more expensive than the GT and comes without fans or lighting effects. Cooler Master's V6 GT can make a big impact in both cooling performance and style, and the savvy user will use their motherboard's PWM BIOS settings to tweak the GT's fans for optimal cooling and acceptable acoustics. You should give Cooler Master's V6 GT due consideration when making your next CPU cooler purchase, just make sure you've got the room and are prepared to tweak it to suit your needs."

This is a very well designed and very good performing CPU cooler. It is a bit pricey at $70, but you do get two quality 120mm fans in the package.
