Thermaltake Big Typhoon (CL-P0114) CPU Cooler
 

With the arrival of dual core processors, there has been a major overhaul of product lines from Intel and AMD. Coming out with faster processors, overclocking processors translates into more heat output from these chips and that means faster spinning fans for the stock heatsink/fan (HSF) combo that come supplied with these processors. If you have ever heard a stock Intel 775 HSF, you know that it isn’t exactly quiet and that it doesn’t cool the best. The same goes with the AMD side.

Thermaltake is a name brand synonymous with cooling products in the computer industry. Today I will be reviewing their new HSF dubbed the ‘Big Typhoon’. Don’t let the name scare you – this is one typhoon you’ll want to check out.
