Thermaltake Symphony A Monster?

Wow. Looks impressive, I'm gonna reserve judgement on its potential performance, though.

Looks like it was designed to suit the more stylish 'silver suite' that people seem to be adopting in their personal entertainment systems.

I'm happy with my dual Aquarius threes for now, though 😀
 
I've become quite wary of Thermaltake products. Everytime I buy one of their products, it seems like I am dissapointed.
 
not bad... but they decided to use alumnium instead of copper.. alumnium+water= corrosion even with anticorossion fluids such as zerex and water wetter...
 
Thermaltake seem to be shrugging off their 'crap' description in terms of their products but I guess blind anti-TT'ism still goes on.

Recently... their Armour case has been v. popular. TaiChi, expensive but very nice. Big Water looks, from the reviews, a very good starter kit at a decent price. Their latest Power Supply, with all of its bits and pieces looks good.

Do I even have to mention the Big Typhoon? You all know it by now 🙂

This Symphony looks extremely impressive from an aesthetic perspective. Pumps and waterblocks are probably designed with each other in mind, keeping things all nice and correct.

It fits in well with the TV. It looks rather like a speaker or speaker stand, could have been fun with dual radiators with inbuilt speakers. Wacky enough for TT to try.

It says 'All Aluminium Radiator'... but the pipes do indeed look Copper. TT fans, orange TT fans... I dont trust them to deliver an acceptable cooling level with noise output. Wish Panaflo did 120mm x 25mm L1A's 🙂
 
Well for this much price it looks excellent, if you compare with other water cooling kits in this price range.

You get 2 x pumps + 5 x 120mm fans + huge radiator + nice setup no worry about inside space you need for water pumps or where to put the radiator or any water leakage.

I give 2 thumbs way up.


Here is a Review
 
O ******, i got confused there, i thought it was a home theater setup (speakers) and had no idea what the water tubes/ pump was for lololol
 
I love how so many people are being irrational about this product's cooling capabilities just because of it's name. TT makes the Big Typhoon, one of the best coolers out today, along with a line of cases with great cooling (SVIKING, 2x120mm stock+integrated fan controller for only $70). I'm not a TT fanboy by any means, and I know that they exaggerate fan specs like the other 80% of companies in the business, but with 5x120 fans in this one, this looks like a sure winner.
 
This is actually pretty nice to read. For someone who has never water cooled (me), and thinks a kit like the Aquabox is absolutely hideous (don't be offended. I don't mind if you think my taste sucks 🙂 ), it looks promising.
I do have a question though. I'm thinking about an A8N32-SLI for the future, while an A8N-SLI is arriving on my doorstep on Thursday. Well, silly me wanted a Lian-freaking-enormous-mount-my-motherboard-upsidedown-Li case (PC-V2000 plus), and that kinda destroys the whole heatpipe idea. Needless to say they're coming off. But, that kinda limits me in the chipset cooling department due to to the second evga 7800gtx ko acs3.
Would it be wise to attempt to use a unit like this to cool the A8N-SLI chipset as well, or, dare I even think, the Northbridge AND MCP of the A8N32-SLI? It would be rediculous to run two of these just for the chipset (not to mention, WON'T happen). But I worry about a stand alone HS between those two GTXs...
 
ha. That Thermaltake Symphony system is pretty clever acctually. The only problem with it is if you where planning on using it in your living room, or home theatre, and you had tower speakers already it'd look stupid to have another speaker\tower looking object around the place. I wonder if you can place horizontally without water leakages...i doubt it...but if you could you may be able to hide it out of place.

I think it wouldnt look too much out of place. You could probably get away with saying its an extra speaker or subwoofer. No-one would really question you further 😛
 
why would you do that? Just ask them if they can hear your pc. When they say, "no", you tell them all about your high tech piece of equipment that's simply camouflaged. I think it'd go over just as well for what it is. Besides, who would want a huge multi-finned heatsink looking contraption tied in with their entertainment system?
 
Those two powerfull pumps they talk about only move 23 GPH. And it looks like 1/4" tube, though I couldnt find a spec. It looks like it's all flash and no performance to me.
