Introduction


Thermaltake are one of the best known companies in the technology sector - the company was founded back in 1999 and mainly focused on cooling solutions at the time. Today Thermaltake is a corporate giant offering all kinds of cooling solutions as well as computer chassis, peripherals and power supply units. Today we will examine and review a product from their latest cooling series, the ISGV-V320. ISGC stands for "Inspiration of Silent Gaming Cooling" and as the name suggests the series consists of sizable and silent cooling products.

The V320 is a GFX card cooler designed to fit on almost every video card currently available. As well as being a choice for high end boards - mid range graphics cards tend to have some relatively poor cooler designs with small and noisy fan configurations. The Thermaltake V320 looks very much alike the Titan Twin Turbo CSC88TZ cooler which we reviewed some time ago but it is significantly larger and heavier. It is probably the largest GFX card cooler ever made and today we will see if size really does matter.
