With the basis of double the fan count can increase the cooling of your CPU, for Thermaltake DuOrb the dual blue LED fans with the combination of the copper red fins surrounding the two fans, make a colorful arrangement, great to show off to your friends in you very own windowed case. Very much the same with the much dazzling prize of about less than $100 online!
The Thermaltake is by all mean impressive with the two from the previous Orb brand of their fans, the stuck in the semi-aluminum and copper fins for a much affordable prize. For the fans can be easily replace when one of them fails for some reason, it can be a easy crew out, replace and screw in. also, the use of aluminum fins in the bottom of the cooler and the copper surrounding in the side, judging from its low prize, is a cost effective way rather than having a full body copper heatsink, with an improvement of cooling capabilities but also the increase of the prize by about 50 or so dollars. Also the downside of the cooler form Thermaltake is in the large form factor, with the dual fans in-turn need a lot of space to spray out the heat and the problem of having it to touch the Ram when the fan is placed in its side and when you compensate by locking the cooler vertically you have to think through about the graphics and some cases the Northbridge.
For the cooling factor of the DuOrb is placed against the Quad core QX6850 one with its stock setting into its default one with the core clock speed raised up to the 3.5GHz for the ultimate stress test. In the load temp of the default setting is in the acceptable 60degrees but the sound of the two fans is the justification of to compensate of silent cooling. In the over-clocked settings went sky high in the eye pooping 80degrees in our reading before blowing up and crashing in the process.
For the companies like the example of Thermaltake’s case to make really innovative their own products as their own is to make it “bigger and better†and without hitting the pack pocket. Well, in the case of the DuOrb is a great success and all out most failure, I cannot elaborate the situation but you can make your minds up, it has a lower prize variant than other coolers with blowing colors to show off and one too many fans make is a cheap alternative cooler, but with the test however tell a different story, a high temp count in load and a loud fans time s two! Is a turn off and make you look for somewhere else. But weighting in the pros and cons, the cooler is not bad for most cases, if you have a dual core and a lot of space to sacrifice or even a fashion item with and affordable prize to grab.
