Yah I wouldn't lap it either. Here is a new review of Zalman's version of the TRUE knockoff. Take a look at the first and second chart. It shows exatcly what I was talking about. The more heatload you start adding, the more the megahalems opens the gap.

It'll be a first hand account of how the Thor's Hammer runs dippidy poo dah man! Welcome it no matter what ur little review friends say.

Actually buddy I thought about getting that cooler too. I think it looks pretty nice and will get the job done. Honestly idk why I got the megahalem. I was almost talked into and wanted a scythe mugen 2 also. Megahalem was just one of those things I "had to have" I guess. G/L with your cooler and I will be awaiting the results.

Thats exactly the reason why I am gonna order a panaflo 38mm fan. I have agreed unless I change my mind to get the 68cfm variant for testing. I know static pressure is very important, but my arguement is that it won't cool any better than my 75cfm scythe due to the lack of cfm. I was gonna order the 88cfm version. I still might, but I gotta order the medium speed one first to see who is right.

I can't believe you bought that thing, I hope you like it! For max testing purposes you should get the Panaflo ultra quiet and a Mugen II, once you figure out that the megahalem is a disappointment you can switch to the Mugen II immediately.

I remember why i picked up teh Thor now, it has teh mount for LGA755 and 1366. It's gonna make it easier to test fire mobo's. Thats teh main goal.

Looks like the Mugen II will also.... I might have to give that one a try, looks impressive anyways.

Umm I'm sorry, but please link me to a respected site that has the mugen beating the TRUE or Megahalem. The mugen II is a super cooler and is much much cheaper in price. That don't mean its all out better. It is known and has been known that the TRUE is the one to rule them all. Well I won't go as far as to say that the Megahalem outright beats the TRUE because they are actually about equal in my book. Before you say it, yes the Mugen II is right there within 1-2.5c of both the other coolers. Plus just like the TRUE and Megahalems it gets better with a higher heatload. I wouldn't go tooting my horn that the Megahalem is crap or a disapointment though. It was stated by Jeffro that the mount for AM3 sucked and had to be modded to even work. Thats far from making it suck on intel sockets for which it was only intended for. :rolleyes:

hahaha most top coolers do now. Isn't the Thor supposed to have a really nice mounting mechanism though?

[punx223]

better question if your looking for something for general testing and stuff why didnt you go with a true?

Honestly? I dunno, it looks like a waterblock wrench down system which works for me. Its not for an everyday clocker rig, none of our toys are. If it were a 24/7 system I'd prolly go with the TRUE. But its a bench tester and if I wanna brag "air" rights, I'll put a leaf blower on it or rig up some sub-zero air conditioning to it.

Chucky! Stuff that thing full of cotton before you bleed out! You know I don't respect any review site really and you know why.

SteveO said he thought the Mugen was a clear winner and has been using them since I showed them to him a few months ago. My personal experience with Scythe is very good, it's so good that I would recommend them on name alone! SteveO started with the TRUE if you remember...


Prove me wrong! Don't believe me! Just remember that I have your best interests at heart here.
