We have all seen the aero reviewed @ PCA this is slightly different

Same idea, but they made the fan look like a JET engine! LOL

Fugly doesn't do that POS justice my friend....
Heatsinks are supposed to look one of two ways..
Simple an bland - Standard stock stuff...still uniform and 'neat' in their own way..
Insane OC'er shit... - Still very sleek looking yet made of copper/cop-alu mix with big fans and sometimes insane shapes ala Zalman...
This fits in neither of those...the HS is small and ugly to start with and the fan is weak with loads of extra useless weight...that doesn't do anything except make it look 'cool' which it still fails at.
The whole point is to have nice aesthetics WHILE using every bit of those aesthetically pleasing features to cool the heck outta yer CPU!
CoolMaster fails once again... ThermalTake is looking better then ever...still no Thermalright or Millennium though...

im using a coolermaster HS.. and i wouldent trade it for the wold.. the only thing id replace it with is the same thing or a newer one that is larger and has more heat pipes and a 3 prong clip/bolt on.

The heatpipe one is like the only CM HSF I've used that worked good... The rest are cheap as hell or made cheaply and bulked up with useless crap (they've done that on this sink worse then TT has...ever...and thats saying a-fuggin'-lot about them)
Oh and from personal experience their fans suck ass... lol NMB and Comair Rotron are my fav's. They make WC'd setups rock...and the CR's just look so dang cool! Plus I've used them on Xenon lamp reflectors 3x as big as a normal reflectors and one pair of 'em keep it from dying...use them on 4,000w water cooled Xenon lamps...lol sweet WC'ing set up considering how much pressure is on the WC'ing system...
