Cooler Master GeminII

Has anyone ever tried this cooler yet?
I found several reviews, but no one who actually bought it or tried it before.

I updated the sticky thread of heatsink reviews with some I found.
From Coolermaster's site
 
I don't really know about it. Looking at it, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of heatsink surface are to use all the air that those 2 120mm fans could push... I would think there could be a LOT more metal fins in there, even if they were only aluminum to give the heat more surface area to dissipate. I would think a Tuniq or a Thermaltake 120 would cool better personally.
 
It is a "total system cooler".
From some of the reviews, it is no slouch.
However, I guess no one has ever tried it yet. I think anandtech will have a review on it for the next roundup.

Personally, I *think* it's ALWAYS suspect when someone does a review of the latest 'Tuniq Tower 120 Killer' but the review doesn't include a face-off between Product-X and a Tuniq Tower 120...

Soooo, I *think* you're probably right! 😀

Surely you mean ThermalRIGHT 120 (i.e. Ultra-120) of which the eXtreme variant beat the Tuniq Tower 120?
