I think there is some concern that with the pipes like that you will have to have a strong fan or two to push air through it. Looking at the side shot it looks like a rad (density wise). Push pull or a nice 38mm fan may have to be used for the best performance.

I like the way the pipes are spread out and not behind each other,so they are in the air flow better.

yeah TRUE Copper would def be one of the heaviest coolers I know of. Combined with Dual-motor Delta fans, it'd damn near tear your mobo tray off lol, naa jokes aside mount it properly with maybe some guy-wires and you'll be fine (to a point).

Ven X is Thermalright, but I think it comes with AM2/3 mounts in the box, not as an additional bracket set for $ like Prolimatech does. Looks like it doesnt come with the mounts either. Im at a loss as to why the previous comment said Prolima rips off AMD people. Is the bracket extremely overpriced or something?

This thread is more than 10 years old.

Yes this is the best time for a quick review!
The cooler among with the Prolimatech 140mm DC fan (900 rpm) they are working beautifully for 8 years at my system.
I am not a rich man, and so I waited for two years until to get the cooler as used at half price from eBay UK, and also I got the fan as new from Germany.

Room temperature at end of July in Greece 30C (900rpm fixed speed).
System idle :
Core 1: 33
Core 2: 34
Core 3: 30
Core 4) 30

System Gaming:
Core 1: 38
Core 2: 37
Core 3: 36
Core 4) 36

Heat pipes nickel plating undamaged - zero oxidation
Prolimatech this is still alive, they are available spare-parts from the entire kit.

Negatives: Shipping cost from Taiwan for spare-parts this is no less than 15 Euro.
Conclusion: High performance - long life - one time purchase for my entire life.
