V8 vs Dark Knight

Charper2013 · Dec 25, 2009

Which one should I go with? They are around the same price on newegg. If I get the Dark Knight, I have a Noctua I can slap on it. I will be using it for my Phenom II 720BE in the future.
Thanks guys.

from what i can tell the dark knight beats the v10 and if the v10 beats the v8 then the dark knights is the best overall

I must be looking at that chart wrong cause I do not see the DK beating the V10 there.

The DK is an awesome cooler though, it keeps my Q9550 very cool and looks great. Plus I can buy the OE Xig fan off you
