That's great Shannon .... grats man.

Looking forward to seeing some up close and personal reviews, TBH I have written their air coolers off and have never even looked at their power products.... :blush:

How do they stack up for real ? ..... CM 212 is what I have been using for grinders these days ...

Just built (2) systems for some friends of friends .... great product for the price

Can TT compete with = preformance at a $ 30 price point ? ....

30 bucks is a tough price point tbh.... the new line of frio coolers and etc are pretty awesome.... beats my megahalems and true by a couple degrees.

TT power supplies I have been testing and they are very nice.... have a couple 3way/4 way setups testing over here and have yet to see an issue.

but I dont wanna speak as a company guy TBH.... but they are really nice and work well.

[HybridChiller]

congrats at you're new position @ Thermaltake.

I know also somebody of thermaltake Taipei Taiwan, sended me a nice case and psu lol

[69_Goat]

Great news, Shannon.

Wishing you the best with the new gig.

Congratulations shannon!

If you need some independent reviews done let me know :)

I would really like to review a case, that I would actually use. I have not found one (that I could afford) in a long time.

Who knows I may call you on taht ;)

[Vivi]

please no ock..

they effe'd up that youtube video so badly!

rather ask me to make an epic video :blush:

[MaadDaawg]

the ock?

The OCK is decent looking, but do we really need all the colored plastic on top ?


Get them to copy (I mean emulate ) the BARAM heat tube design and then put push/pull fans on it with a nice plastic shroud like the Corsair A70 or the cm v6 :D


My main gripe was the white fans they used on everything else.

lol, I thought we were about performance here? :p

all in all I will do what I can to make it perform better for ya, but the appearance well hey I dont look in my case all day :)

Isn't "performance" and "air cooling" an oxymoron :D

I use my corsair A70s for disk setup and shit, never for actual use much less OC. lol No reason performance can't look tuff instead of kiddy ;)

It's all about the preformance. Air I think is a great place to flex your muscels as we represent a minority and the other 95% of the planet runs on air. It only makes good business sence to go after those dollars, that being said back to my first post in this thread, take CM and the 212 the performance they have acheived at such a rediculously low priced part is simply industry leading and I have to think this cooler is the topic of discussion for all it's competetors. even high end air is not mainstream. true sucsess I have to believe lies in this price point in this large market segment. I look forward to seeing what TT has on the horizion as I use this price point for building grinders locally, and I don't care if they are hot pink ................. :laughing:

[Witchdoctor]

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103065

That's the one, the Egg started at 29.99 but being it was moving so fast and not being able to maintain stock at that price point they decided it was worth more than the manfactuers suggested retail price

Bastarts ........... :ohcrap:

even Best Buy has the 212 at the correct price .... LOL
Easily found with 10 dollar rebate and can be had for that more times than not ...

truth be told I do not think CM new this would preform as well as it does at this price point

[GeorgeStorm]

Congratulations :)

[MaadDaawg]

Brother Shannon,

If TT needs someone in the Chicago are, for sales, repair, etc - I can be up an running in a matter of days :D

[punx223]

Witchy,

Check out the Contac 30 or contac 29. Lemme know what you think.

it has 1 less heatpipe but thats because it uses larger 8mm heatpipes for the design.

You guys are the reason I am here, way too many good memories to walk away from! :Hi:

[MaadDaawg]

We started talking enthusiast perfromance air coolers and the Doc changed it into low price point coolers. I say enough of them on the market - go for the high price/ high margin parts that really perform.

Having said that, Tt needs to get away from water cooling systems that use 1/4 inch tubing :laughing:

totally off subject but... is it me that thinks the EVGA HSF is the same as the Swiftech HFS except for colors used?

[Kal-EL]

I think having those big ears to the ground has really paid dividends.

[Witchdoctor]

I think a 120.3 AIO would fly off the shelves :)

Hope all is well, don't see you around these parts enough

[Mr.Scott]

Think the changes are great. Decent products at competitive price points puts you back in the game. :)
