that is a piss poor effort on OCZ's part. I love most of their products but this seems like a case of "couldn't be bothered"...

what happened to that fan dangle bloody cpu cooler they were making... Can't remember what it was called but it looked pretty deadly.... I don't think it was ever released but.

looks more like the sunbeam Silent Whisper cooler than the arctic cooling model if you ask me.

I dont really like the idea of OCZ essentially re-releasing the same thing other companies have already made, but you have to start somewhere when you enter the cooling business, besides im sure OCZ doesnt make or design these things, its probably some big OEM that makes products for other companies. Either way, if its a good performer at a decent price I'd probably use or recommend it regardless if its a knock off or an original, bottom line is how much is it gunna cost to get something that performs well and doesnt make a lot of noise.

Actually, they went with a proven winners, design. Everyone knows the AC Pro 64 is one of the best thermal solutions around. OCZ just shaved a little here and made it pull more heat away.
