Which one have y'all found to be the best of the best for benching on air?

These two seem to be the top of the roost when it comes to ari cooling:

MEGAHALEM



TRUE

I have the True Ultra extreme 120, the standard version and it cooled the same if not better than my water setup. The copper one is better but harder to find and more expensive.

I like that true copper.... I guess the push pull fans would help that much more?

Thats what they say. I've never used it but I've read over and over how well it performs. I don't think you can go wrong with it. The magahalem is starting to see reviews where its a couple degrees cooler than the TRUE but the jury is still out.

I was looking at the optional fan mount and it said something about it can be used for a push pull... but the way it looks like it hooks up it doesn't look like that would be possible. But they aren't the best pics.

Too bad you can't find one anywhere.:rolleyes:

Here are some tests done on various coolers. One site the Megahalem wins but the other the TRUE wins.

Interesting reads.... Looks like they are both very good coolers for sure. I'll probably get the TRUE because I can't find the Megahalem instock anywhere LOL!

I like the bolt down kit way more for the Megahalem than the TRUE. The TRUE is kinda hard to do and you end up sliding the cooler around on the CPU which at times has gotten my paste everywhere.
