Ultra Carbon Coolers (X2/X3/X5/X7)

[aj28]

Saw these at CompUSA the other day... Anyone have any thoughts or want to report some personal experience? I can't seem to find any legit in-depth reviews on any of them, but they look like they could be a pretty good deal.

Here's what I'm getting at:

X2: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4974358&CatId=798
X3: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4974207&CatId=798
X5: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4974260&CatId=798
X7: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4974261&CatId=798

They also have a VGA cooler, the X4: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4974361&CatId=4027

If anyone wants to comment on these things, I'd really appreciate it. With the X7 at $25 AR right now, I'm thinking I might jump... Would be my first Ultra product in-hand since their old modular PSU's with the dinky little plexi windows were all the rage.

It would be nice to have sneeky test them but the X4 VGA cooler looks like it is priced fairly. Rare for most aftermarket VGA coolers.

The X7 is a redo of the ....damn.... the SilenX iXtrema EFFIZIO EFZ-120HA4 and there have been 3 or 4 spin off coolers. To be honest, I would't buy any of it.

Oh and the X4 was a silenX release also, the same one that Xigmatek used like 6 months later. That GPU cooler is cheap because it was already a full on flop for two other manufacturers

The VGA cooler is just a rebrand of the Xigmatek one but I read over on OC.net someone mentioned that it (Ultra version) has a 4-pin fan connector to plug in to the VGA card. I assume that the fans are PWM then but I've seen some manufacturer recently do the same but the fans were not PWM and just ran at full speed all the time.
