Thermalright Venomous X CPU Cooler Review


Thu 2010-02-04 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan
X-bit Labs have posted a review of Thermalright's latest and greatest heatsink, the Venomous X.

Here's an excerpt:

"Yes, Thermalright Venomous X is an excellent cooler with remarkable efficiency. It is a little expensive, but the fans of Thermalright brand will not be discouraged by a 65-dollar price tag. New retention mechanism and mirror-shining base surface are good bonuses, but unfortunately, they do not produce the desired effect. At the same time, we don’t quite understand why Thermalright engineers didn’t perforate the heatsink plates of Venomous X the same way they did with the pates of Ultra-120 eXtreme rev.C, and why they didn’t make the cooler wider (83 mm instead of 63 mm)."


While the Venomous X might only be marginally better than the Ultra-120 eXtreme, it is still better in every respect, so I highly recommend it.
