Title: Excellent solution to P4 overheating!
Product review: I purchased the Thermaltake cooling tower after reading Maxwell Smart's review (thanks!) and finding familiar P4 overheating problems with the stock Intel fan/sink. Thermaltake works like a champ! CPU temp dropped from 150-165 and 4500 RPM fan speeds, to a relaxed 120 and 2500 RPM. CPU would overheat and reset my PC while playing labor intensive games. No longer! Nice and QUIET. Sturdy unit - heavy. Install takes some patience, and NOTE: if your MOBO has the P4 CPU slot rotated 90-degrees-out (like my MSI) the fan mounts are forced to a top-bottom config, instead of front-rear - which did not work with my case - the attached fan would be stuck flat against the powersupply... I had to remove the "shroud" from the tower (easy) and fab a new bracket for the fan (not pretty) but you could run the tower without the shroud and no optional fan, and probably get excellent cooling just the same. Very nice unit - highly recommend. 4 rather than 5 for fitment issue only.
