Holy crap!! I just tested my new SLK-800 and the SmartFan II from my Volcano 9.

With the Volcano 9 heatsink + fan (smartfan II) the 2500+ was on 45 degress celsius. That was with the fan att 5000 rpm. Quite bad!!

Now...with the SLK-800 + smartfan II the CPU temp is att about 22 degress ceslius, with the fan on 5000 rpm.

Most of thermaltake's products look better than they actually are so I'm not surprised. From what I hear their water cooling system is crap.

I agree....

I have (and have used) many Th products...

The one I find the Best is the volcano 7... (with a fan mod by MOI)

Although still crap, its adiqute........

I used to be a HUGE fan of ThermalTake.. that was till I got my ThermalRight SLK-900u...now I will never look at TheralTake again....

but with the fan @ 3200 rpm, is it normal with a fullload on the CPU at about 47 degrees?

I've never really had an issue with TT products in my PC

I love their fans and the video cooling systems work quite well.

I also dont find my V9 to be all that bad of an HSF but I traded it off for the stock AMD 2500+ HSF as its just kick ass to begin with
