Xigmatech "Thor's Hammer"
Picked up this cooler to be part of the "Air" testing phase before giving motherboard's the seal of approval. I chose this cooler because the mount listed said both "S1366" & "S775".
Here are some product images since they take such nicer pics than me: http://benchmarkreviews.com/images/r...il_Package.jpg http://images.tweaktown.com/content/1/7/1753_4.png http://www.driverheaven.net/reviewim...pictures/5.JPG http://www.driverheaven.net/reviewim.../backplate.JPG http://www.driverheaven.net/reviewim...es/install.JPG First impressions of the overall looks are impressive. The rubber fan mounts look good. After fumbling around a few days procrastinating, I realized that this mount system isn't really what I was looking for in a quick "Air" test system, but that was my bad in choice. I'm a quick-change sorta guy, thus all the koolance quick disconnects in my rigs. Alas, I'll be firing her up soon and running an E8600 thru its paces on a REX. Will post back soon. |
That is a very nice looking cooler.
But that mounting system looks very hard to get setup correctly. Looking at the Classified I can where it would almost impossible to tighten those mounting screws with that little wrench. I like the way the V8 is mounted, tighten up the mounting screws from the back side makes it very easy to do. |

Results!!
Hopefully I can have some of my own soon. :D |
Sry Marc, got caught up in another build. So far with this h/s I get 28ish idle @ 4.5ghz and 1.3vCore and around 55c load I believe it was. Bench stable but limited extensive testing done.
