    AK620 is good cooler and while 3x fans on cooler don't really increase it's cooling ability much over 2x fans, sometimes 3rd fan will change case airflow. Sometimes this allows room temperature air entering case to flow to cooler without being...

    No argument, just 1 fin less by my count than yours. ;) I even said all cool the same because extra fins are not fit to heatpipes thus are not radiating heat. I was trying to say your post validates mine. I was trying to say is your cropped...

    It happens to the best!! Used to be 1st thing peeps posted when someone posted they were overheating. I did it once assembling a system when I should have been in bed. Cost me better part of a day's work before I pulled cooler.

    I use an old chopstick with a 'V' filed at 45 degree angle in square end to hook fan clip onto fan. So much easier than trying to get fingers and not get cut.

    Actual cost of manufacture vs retail pricing is almost always at least 10 mill markup. That's a product costing $1 to make sells for at least $10. Some things (cel phones, earbuds, Nike shoes, etc) are $1 cost of manufacture sells for...

    Agreed, Frost Spirit is way better cooler than Arctic 36. Neither Arctic or Thermalright are 'taking a bath' at these prices. Cooler material and construction cost is very low. I would be surprised if Frost Spirit manufacturing cost more than...

    Arctic 36 is just another of so many other similar sized 4x 6mm heatpipes single tower coolers with single or double fans on the market these days. Nothing special about it at all except it's one of several in it's low price range. While in...
