The only cheap 939 CPU coolers I have are:

SilverStone NT04

Antec Performance CPU Cooler

Dynatron A43

The antec and the dynatron are exactly the same, just the name Antec is on one..

I have lots of others but way above that price range.. what you got to trade? I have Spire, Aerocool, Thermalright, Scythe and others..

(Isant the purpose of a cooler to cool?)
Nope, it's just to show off with.
like "check his out man, if have this big lump of copper hanging on the side of my motherboard" "wow dude, that's so awesome, chicks will be over you!" to end with the fonzie "eeeeeeeeeh" :mrgreen:

That was my review you read, by the way... hehehe...

The reason it got the 8 out of 10 was because it did actually cool better than stock. so it did what it was supposed to do if I receall correctly..

and it will blow towards the back of the case i believe, or up towards the PSU.... you can move the fan around..

oh.. the NT04...

I was talking about the Antec and the Dynatron, the fan is on the side of those

the Dynatron, the Antec and the Nt04 were my reviews...

in the defense of the NT04 it was a lot quieter than the stock solution, and did look a lot better, the eye candy factor comes into play as well for my reviews... you need to consider many things, you might want that 44C of the stock heatsink, but do you really want to hear the 45db of the stock fan while getting that 44c under load? things need to be balanced and or sacrificed for what each persons preference is, so you give a few degrees but get a silent system....


I take many things into account when I review a product... it isn't all just based on performance, but performance does play a big factor of course...

I try and do non-biased reviews where I weigh all the factors into it, starting with the packaging, to the construction of the product to it's performance and other things as well...

anyway, if there is something you have to trade let me know, I am always looking for lots of things... I have many CPU coolers floating around...


Edit.. pertaining to your comment about reviews, it is better to get things that you really don't want for review as then you are really unbiased, I don't review things that I buy because I bought them because I wanted it, then there is really a bias there becuase if you paid for it and it is bad then you will feel you need to be harder on the product because you spent your money on it..

Hey, not everyone agrees with everyone else, if we all agreed on everything life would be boring..

Criticism doesn't bother me anyway.... we learn from criticism

I guess this is pretty off-topic, but why the 3 subsequent posts?

long story....

markkleb deleted his posts as he didn't relealize a review that he was talking about was mine, and he thought he may have offended me so he deleted them...

I told him it's not a big deal. but you can't undelete them...

dracos really likes to type....lol

I was saying I thought that it was better for reviewers if they bought the stuff because when they get it for free you may feel like you have to give a better review than the product deserves.

Of course if I was the reviewer I would want the free stuff too, lol...
