sorted byI bought this one yesterday. I think this is a better version? certainly larger. Slighlty more expensive. But the white RBG version seems a good price.
Was torn between this one with 5 heat pipes at the bottom running across or to go with 6 and a plate in the BA120, but eventually went with the BA120 which was luckily a few quid cheaper at the time (last week). Temps are much lower than what I had with my wraith prism!!

Also a big thank you to and for their comments on another post that made me even consider it!
This is a pretty poor deal though as the same one from the TR store on Amazon is £16.49. (edited)
Posted seperately as mods normally delete links and don't want the above comment deleted, lol. (edited)
If I was in the market for a (new) air cooler I wouldn't hesitate adding them to a short list at a minimum. I've had 2 CPU coolers from them TRUE 120, and a Macho rev B, but have also used (but not owned) GPU and mobo coolers. Excellent heat dissipation and performance to noise.
It's large so you need the appropriate case.

But yes you can get an even better one for less from their store. (edited)
The 212 was king for a good few years, for the price there wasn't much that could compare in terms of performance/compatibility and ease of install. Just that TDP's for CPU's have risen so much and they haven't changed the 212 to keep up.
Plenty of alternatives with better performance for the price now:
* Thermaltake PeerlessAssasin -
- probably the best fo the price, can add an exra fan to make it 3 which is crazy good performance.
* Thermaltake Assasin King -
- The best 212 replacement
* Fractal Design Dark Rock Pro 4 -
- For quietness and high TDP.
* Noctua NH-D12L -
- It's Noctua and they do a black version instead of the (imo) horrible Noctua beige.
But anyone derising the 212 has no clue tbh, it was king for a reason and still excellent value for low TDP builds (edited)
It was - and still is - a capable cooler. It just isn't the best value anymore. (edited)
