Tuniq 120 Extreme

[mav2000]

Now is this one going to be the new king of air coolers…???

Someone on XS did a small review and it even beats the CM V10..by a mile..5 heatpipes, fan in the middle, so u have a push and pull system running at the same time…now lets see what it can do against the megahalems and the true.

i can’t say that right now as no reviews are out yet.

But,Tuniq has the name for providing some of the best Price VS Performance products.

Short review on XS :

Noctua NH-U12P (NF-P12 fan) Idle 25 Load 45

CM V8 (Stock fan) Idle 25 Load 46

CM V10 (Stock fan) Idle 24 Load 39

Tuniq Extreme 120 (Stock fan min rpm) Idle 24 Load 40

Tuniq Extreme 120 (Stock fan medium rpm) Idle 24 Load 36

Tuniq Extreme 120 (Stock fan max rpm) Idle 23.5 Load 34

wow!! looks hawt and the weight is impressive for a heat sink of that dimension..

[NAV33N]

if you want the best air cooler in the market i’ve got only 3 names -

1)Coolermaster V10 (bcoz of peltier effect)

2)Thermalright True Copper

3)Prolimatech Megahalems.

[mav2000]

This seems to beat the V10 so think again…and V10 is useless on an AMD cause the peltier comes into effect only after 50 deg C, by which time ure pretty close to the thermal limit anyway.

i will not agree with you on that as the V10 has 200W+ cooling technology with it’s T.E.C Thermo Electric Cooler (which uses Peltier Effect) built in & the best cooling anyone can get on air is with thermoelectric cooler.

I doubt it, but even then, this should cost you around 8k in India and the 120 extreme will cost u max 2.7k or so…do the math.

Please do keep in mind that the TEC starts only at 50 degs, thats what it is programmed to do.

It is now time to pass the tests to know the performance of this thing with his Extreme fan that can spit out 2000 trs / min and 95 CFM.

The heat sink was mounted on a Core i7 920 to the voltage source, HT enabled, but the thrust frequency of 3.2 GHz. . We performed 30 minutes of full load with OCCT and 20 min of rest. The temperatures shown in the table are averages of 4 cores. Le ventilateur qui a servi est le modèle d’origine en 5, 7, 9 et 12 volts. The fan that was used is the original model in 5, 7, 9 and 12 volts. . The 5 volts is the minimum speed potentiometer, while the 12 volts is the maximum.

Tuniq promised excellent performance for its new heat sink, and the brand does not disappoint at this level since the Tower 120 Extreme comes to do better than the Prolimatech Megahalems with its original fan (we specify, it has its important). . In 5, 7, 9 and 12 volts, the Tuniq is simply best in Burn some 2 to 4. . A feat we might think, even if the difference is less at rest. And what about from the Hammer of Thor, which is simply far behind.

But now, let’s backtrack a bit and the phrase “with its original fan (we specify this in his important )”… Yes, the fan is the explanation of this impressive performance. The Xigmatek Prolimatech and was tested with a Noctua fan extremely quiet and almost inaudible 7 volts, which is far from true fan present in the Extreme. Indeed, we must know that from the 5 volt fan is audible, and the breath of air is enough therefore, or very good values. At 7 volts, we are the aural equivalent of 9 volts with a Noctua, and we do not even speak of modes 9 and 12 volts, which are almost unusable on a daily basis. . These modes are clearly intended for an evening OC. Nevertheless, the benefits of the heat sink remains impressive, and it will be quickly forgotten in 5 volts. . But we must keep in mind that temperatures are biased (in competition) by the fact that the fan debit lot more air.

. We did a quick test with a Noctua fan, and 5 volts, we obtained 38 ° idle and 54 ° in Burn, which ranks among the Megahalems and Thor’s Hammer. This proves that the fan is for many in performance, but the radiator itself appears also relatively efficient.

So there u go…looks like this is the new king…thanks for that wingy

ya i know that but have a look at my earlier post in this thread in which i’ve mentioned this as one of the best air coolers & i suppose if you want something that is the best then you hardly think how much does it costs.

Anyone geting it?..It was available two months ago @ arnd 70$ Prices have fallen I guess

[piyush7243]

i checked newegg its there for $55 but does nt lists socket 1366 in the compatibility list

@piyush7243

i checked newegg its there for $55 but does nt lists socket 1366 in the compatibility list

it is compatiable with 1366 + 1156 socket. it released just 2 months ago.

[madnav]

i dont understand why they dont use sccf to compete along..

^CCF’s old-school already! Heatsinks which utilizes the heatpipe-direct-touch tech would dare hold a candle to overclocked quad-cores like the i7 which crosses 80’C at 4GHz+ on superior heatsinks like the TRU120E and the Megahalems.

Shripad’s review of the Megahalems clearly bought the picture of comparison b/w all the major heatsinks to light.

^Lol I second that as well.
