ASUS Triton 81 LGA1366 CPU Cooler Review

Wed 2009-01-14 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan

Overclock3D have posted a review of the new ASUS Triton 81 LGA1366 CPU Cooler, which is designed for the new Intel Core i7 quad-core processors.

Here's what they had to say:

"The Asus Triton is a very proficient cooler, proven by our test results. It consistently out performed the stock cooler and while that is not exactly groundbreaking it did cope well with the heat being omitted from our CPU even at a 3.8ghz overclock.

The heatsink itself is a very good looking unit and would look tidy on any motherboard. The now standard heatpipes found on most aftermarket CPU coolers are not intrusive and the fin arrangement is not so big that it should interfere with any other on board chipset cooling."

The Triton 81 is a decent upgrade when compared to the stock cooler, but it is absolutely no match for Thermalright's incomparable Ultra-120eXtreme 1366 RT.
