Default Enzotech Ultra-X Active CPU Cooler Review by PC Perspectives

This is a top performing cooler for Intel and AMD with a down-draught design that will cool surrounding components as well as the CPU. PC Perspective gave it their gold award. Here are their pros and cons:


"Strengths:
  • Excellent performance
  • Very good build quality
  • Large diameter heat pipes for efficient cooling
  • High-speed Delta fan offers good flexibility with bundled fan speed controller
  • Easy to install (will vary by motherboard)
  • Supports both Intel LGA775 and AMD K8/AM2 platforms
  • Arctic Silver 5 thermal compound included
  • Looks good
Weaknesses:
  • Large size may preclude use on some motherboards
  • Limited availability "
