Still have a True copper from…uh oh I’m getting old

Is a pretty thing still

Yeah it's that time of the decade! :D

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Will it actually be available, or is this just a "show" product?

I've asked them for samples of their pure copper products before (I review cooling), and every time I've asked they stated they are out of stock.

But how reliable is it?

How reliable peace of metal can be?

Depends on the metal. Iron can rust pretty quickly.

Too many people immediately think of the True copper!

Nice blue accent color to add to your cyberpunk themed build too.

I still have three True Coppers. Almost 2kg, the only downside is lack of support for newer sockets. And you can only use it on lay flat systems. Pair it with a delta EHE and mwah chefs kiss

Thermalright supposedly has a mounting kit for AM4/AM5

I ran my i7 965 on a TRUE black and a delta fan for a while. Still don't know how I put up with that level of fan noise.

Will wait for LTT review ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

GN’s cooler reviews have been excellent lately, I would look forward to that one more

Awww here I thought it's gonna be a 120mm tower... :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I used their all copper coolers back in the socket A days. Paired with super loud 92mm Delta fans.

Holy crap, this will be huge for sff and 1u/2u chassis servers!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Not that huge. A full copper AXP-90 X47 has been available for years. the X53 is only a little bigger and as such a pretty minor upgrade to that. Certainly nice, but not huge imo.

I once had a heavy copper cooler. It's convenient for quick testing, it's heavy enough that I didn't have to seure it. Just put it on the CPU and did quick tests of my system.
