what is the typo? Thermaltake is a company that makes PC parts...

I see thermalright has a true copper heatsink, but i also see hits for thermaltake and true copper.

I could take a picture of the one in my bedroom HTPC.

But would involve taking things apart.

Still need to put the L5639 in it and have been too lazy to tear it down, not something that is sold anymore, they were not many of em produced.

Should be ThermalRight I guess but irrelevant.

Bit of a stretch there though.

Nit picking old articles ?

Ah. I guess you're saying they said "Thermaltake" when they should have said "Thermalright."

Thermaltake has been around for a looong time. They made their name with cooling solutions and enclosures. Now I think they sell power supplies and stuff too.

It's hard to have any interest in building computers and not know of them.

Now, many years ago, an occasional PC gamer I worked with said he thinks it's pronounced "Thermal tock ee." Had me thinking about it ever since...

It's pronounced Thermal Take. Common US English for both words. You can tell him differently, though, just to make him look stupid.

I had a tech at a PC store pronouncing ASUS as Aye Sue E Us for years until he clued on.

How do we know it's pronounced "Thermal Take?" Aren't they based in a non-English-speaking country?

On the point of Asus... They once put out a YouTube video about the pronunciation. In the video, they repeatedly said it's pronounced "'uh soose' like 'peg uh soose.'"

Made absolutely zero sense because that's not how "pegasus" is pronounced.

Then I read somewhere that they changed the official pronunciation since then.
