Thermalright Ultima-90 Heatpipe CPU Cooler
January 29, 2008

Conclusion:

Thermalright always puts out top quality products that offer computer enthusiasts a significant upgrade over stock cooling hardware. The Ultima-90 Heatpipe CPU Cooler is without a doubt an excellent choice for your hot processor due to its cooling capabilities, relatively simple installation, compact design, and support for most modern CPUs.


The installation was fairly simple, and the instructions were easy to follow. The only thing that was missing from the kit was a cooling fan. You need to spend extra money on a 90mm or 120mm fan of your own, but at least you can choose a unit with exactly the features and specifications you want. Get a high speed 120mm fan for optimal cooling, or perhaps choose a lower speed 90mm fan for extremely low noise operation that maintains the cooler's compact footprint.

A search of PriceGrabber does not turn up any results for the Ultima-90, but a quick Google search reveals a few stores that have it for sale. The range of prices is about $41.99 to $49.99, which seems to be a little on the high side, especially without a fan included. But given the overall quality and strong performance, I would say that it is worth it.

The testing of the Ultima-90 shows that it has the ability to keep temperatures down while maintaining a clean, simple look. Because of its great cooling ability and easy installation, the Thermalright Ultima-90 Heatpipe CPU Cooler earns the award of "Highly Recommended".


Pros:

» Capable of excellent cooling performance
» Compact design
» Easy installation
» Supports most modern processors

Cons:

» No fan included
» Must remove motherboard for installation
