|  Ultra 120-ex Worth it? I've recently jumped to ship to Intel. My Aquagate 120mm does not fit on the gigabyte P35-S3L mobo... so i need a new HSF. I've confirmed that the Ultra-120-x will fit in my case, so that is a good thing. The only problem is; it costs 70 dollars w/o a fan! That's insane! The tuniq tower is slightly cheaper... at 60 dollars. Is the Ultra-120x worth it? *i posted in the graphics section by accident.* That's the Justin-itis Syndrome kicking in for ya.  E2140 @ 375 x 8 = 3.0ghz 2x1 ocz system 1337s pc2-6400 5-5-5-15 @ 450mhz gigabyte P35 S3L eVGA 7600GT Stock 120 gig seagate ULTRA X-Finity 600w Sonata 2 w/ top fan G5 Lazer Mouse |

| Re: Ultra 120-ex Worth it? Hahaha. I think I would just go for the tuniq tower. I'm sure the extreme is better but I'm cheap. I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220 |

| Re: Ultra 120-ex Worth it? I have read on A LOT of sites that the Thermalright is at the top of there list. (As far as cooling performance.) Also, you can choose the noise-to-cooling power ratio because you choose the fan. Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 + Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme DFI Blood Iron P35-T2RL + Thermalright HR-05 IFX 2GB G.Skill 800MHz F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ EVGA GeForce 8800GTS 320MB Silverstone Decathlon 650W Western Digital 250GB SATA II |

| Re: Ultra 120-ex Worth it? It really depends on how much money you have and want to spend. The Tuniq Tower is cheaper but as Yellow stated, you can change the fan and it's probably going to cool better. I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220 |
