Thermalright Venomous-X RT CPU Heatsink w/ Fan / Bracket (Socket LGA 775 / 1156 / 1366 / AM2 / AM3) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this cooler based on a recommendation from somebody on an enthusiast forum.

When I got the part I was shocked at how big and heavy it was. Definitely a lot of metal in there for cooling!!

I am using this with an Intel i7 875k processor still at the stock 2.93GHz. I ran some tests on it to see how stable my system was after building and I ran all four cores at full 100% power using Prime95 software and was never able to get the CPU temp above 50C.

The only potential problem with this heatsink is that it can overhang the memory modules on the motherboard depending on the exact layout of your board. If you have some of the new highend RAM modules with large heat spreaders on them you may end up with an interference fit. I lucked out on mine, but that's the only issue I could possibly find with this thing.

Product Description:
The Venomous-X RT is compatible with sockets 775, 1156, 1366, AM2 ,AM2+, and AM3. Thus the Venomous-X will conquer the heat produced by any Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and latest AMD as well. However, the Venomous-X was designed with the future in mind. Six core processors have already been accounted for. This is possible because, our installation hardware allows the end-user to adjust pressure via the "Pressure Vault Bracket". Adjustments can be made from 40-70 lbs of pressure to fit any CPU IHS for the best possible CPU contact. The Venomous-X inherited our 6mm sintered heat pipe design, with soldered contact points with the fins and heatsink base to ensure effective heat transfer to our fin array. Thermalright engineers also increased the fin gap distance by 20% to 1.9mm. This modified fin array incorporating our bent winglet design, allows air to rapidly pass through the heatsink with minimal resistance. Consequently, low or high RPM fans will exhibit excellent performance.
