Thermalright Archon SB-E

[PowerHungry]

A friend told me that this cooler is now available at http://www.amazon.com/ThermalRight-...F8&qid=1345012246&sr=8-2&keywords=archon+sb-e

From what I've read it has a total of eight heat pipes and a universal mounting system, unlike the original Archon that had six heat pipes and didn't have a universal mounting system!

I'm using one right now and I like it. It's huge, shiny, keeps my processor at a decent temp with fairly quiet fans.

Unfortunately, due to a lack of size and surface area, I don't think it offers the same degree of performance improvement that the Silver Arrow SB-E has over the original Silver Arrow.

Still - a great single-tower option. I'm using the original Archon on my X58 system - I've added a 2nd TY-140, and it's performing quite well.

Edit: But I guess SPCR likes it. I was referring more to highly overclocked conditions, but I hadn't considered the other angle.
