So the question is, after all this testing is, is the Thermaltake Water 3.0 Ultimate really “ultimate”?During any desktop project, the Thermaltake Water 3.0 Ultimate was pleasantly quiet and kept the hottest Intel Core i7-5960X 8-core processor surprising...

While Thermaltake did take a leap forward in providing the first 360mm radiator CLC system in the market, in our eyes... this is still an Asetek unit so there isn't any big innovation here. However, because its performance being the king of the hill on...

We started out this review wondering if Thermaltake had what it took to create a go to performance AIO cooler. A cooler that you wouldn't hesitate to recommend as the best of the best. And while things started out a little shaky in the install department...

Impressive performance, Ease of installation, Tolerable fan noise, RAM slots and fan headers are accessible
Case size consideration (needs support for a 360mm radiator)
All-In-One coolers have come a long way. They are affordable, convenient, reliable, and come in a variety of sizes and capacities. Thermaltake once again hits the mark with a top-notch cooler. It is large, it is capable, and it is not for the meek. What I...

Thermaltake proves that sometimes it is much better to be first once again. In short, the Water 3.0 Ultimate is the end all be all if you are looking for the most efficiency of any AIO we have tested. Of course, most others tested were 240mm systems, but...

Abstract: Indeed the Thermaltake Suppressor F51 is delivered as a quiet case with loads of sound deadening but if you pull out various drive towers and open some vents you effectively end up with the Fractal Design Define S with the addition of air filtering. This...
