TechieTwo Good coolers IME so there ahould be no need for the gimmicks to sell these. Reply
SkyBill40 Why do they continue to use that nonsense case? The thermals are terrible. Reply

Phaaze88 Shouldn't this be in the review section, not news? helper800 said: While the thermals are not the best on the market, they are certainly not terrible… Perhaps, but there's the rule of the weakest link. If that happens to be the case(subpar thermal performance) instead of the cooler(s) itself, it's going to reflect on the cooler(s) too. Reply

A case like the CoolerMaster HAF II has such good airflow it can mask poorer coolers performance much like an open test bench. Reply
SkyBill40 The best solution would probably be something dead in the middle, thermals wise. That was you would know if a case has better airflow it'd perform better and vice versa for one that's a hot box. Reply
