Thermalright is the king of air cooling?

a111087 · Jun 13, 2007

Ok, I've been trying to select the best cpu and gpu heatsinks.
I've read tons of reviews and came up with the results that Thermalright
has the best heatsinks around
Here is what I selected:
Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme CPU Cooler
Thermalright HR-03 Rev A VGA Cooler

So, it that really the best or does anyone knows if there is a better heatsink?
If you do, please provide the source and/or temps.

Almost forgot, they are suppose to fit AM2 and 7600gt

hmm... i wasn't able to find a review that would compare them, but one thing is for sure, they cost like a water coolers

besides, monsoon II(also TEC) had a much higher temps than Ultra 120 Extreme (~8C)
