Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme 1366 RT Rev.C Quiet CPU Cooler

The Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme 1366 RT Rev.C features a patent-pending design of the fins. In every corner of every fin, a "winglet" is created. This bending of the corners creates an increased air pressure and in return decreases air resistance, so even with a low RPM fan you get massive air flow through the fins. The user can attach any 120mm fan and watch those high CPU temperatures go way down. With a low fan RPM, the cooler is extremely quiet but performance remains, which is what you would expect from a high-end CPU cooler.

The cooler consists of five U-shaped heatpipes to transfer the heat from the base of the cooler up and through the attached fins, maximizing the heat transfer. But that’s not all, due to the winglet design mentioned earlier; it also increases the surface area. All these features translates into more cooling power.

Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme vs. Thermalright TRUE black 120, what's the difference?

The main differences between Ultra-120 eXtreme and TRUE Black 120 are in the color and additional accessories. More specifically, TRUE Black 120 includes the new Chill Factor 2, the upgraded version of the original thermal paste, the Chill Factor. It also has an extra set of fan wire clips for a push-pull, two fan installation. Performance is the same for both in single fan mode.

Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme CPU Cooler Features

• Quiet and powerful cooling due to multiple heat pipes and large aluminum fin area.
• Ventilated fins to increase better air flow to achieve optimal performance under high or low air flow from the fan.
• Utilizes six high quality 6mm heatpipes, strategically positioned to pick up the heat from the CPU.
• Heat pipes soldered to base and fins for optimum heat transfer
• Proprietary bent winglet design to minimize airflow resistance.
• Stack of 52 pieces of aluminum fins, the most over any other heatsinks in the market. Can be covered entirely by a 120mm fan to absorb all in-coming air flow.
• Includes one Ultra low noise “Fluid Dynamic Bearing” fan (1600RPM).
• Includes the new bolt-thru-board retention brackets for Intel Socket 1366.

Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme CPU cooler reviews
This tower-of-power heatsink is the most effective air cooler we've ever tested. Pushing our 2.66 Core i7 to 3.66 was child's play for this bad mother of a cooler. Read the full article at MaximumPC
