Although very competitive, Thermalright has decided to invade the market at low cost CPU cooler, with its range true Spirit. The 120mm model is the first to pass in our mill, and attention, what a performer!
It becomes increasingly difficult to innovate when speaking radiators Thermalright, the brand currently declining his former models on more accessible versions. So, it is a classic tower format, and a now well-known design, which has proved its worth.
Finishing down a little, with few visible traces between the heatpipes and the two elements of the base. Nothing bad, but we feel that the brand is trying to drive prices down.
However, the True Spirit is a beautiful radiator with fins rigid and well integrated.
The installation of the radiator is extremely simple. A backplate with four threaded rods held together by plastic washers, four nuts to finger tight, a top plate and four screws to secure everything. Then, the radiator is placed, which will be maintained by a transverse bar and two screws.
Among the few radiators sold for around $40, the True Spirit is the most powerful, whether in or at least 12V.
At full speed the fan is of course noisy, but less than 212 Evo Hyper Lynx. Things are reversed logically with the fan at 1000rpm, where the model of the day lack of discretion. We will forget once in a box, but a few less rpm would be nice, especially since the performance will remain good.
Specifications:
Base Nickel-plated copper
Fins Aluminum
Heat pipes 4 6mm
Dimensions (mm) 133 x 52 x 160mm
Weight 570g
Fans 120mm PWM @ 1000 ~ 1500rpm
Compatibility 775/115x/1366/AMx/FM1
The Thermalright offers good performance at the expense of noise to a minimum, which are somewhat higher than the competition.
