Conclusion
Well, we have every reason to recommend Thermaltake CL-G0003 to all of you who are willing to make the system as quiet as possible. Of course, if you own a high-end solution such as RADEON X850 XT/X800 XT or GeForce 6800 Ultra/GT, this will not be your choice. CL-G0003 will not cope with cooling of such powerful graphics accelerators. But there is a more powerful solution that Thermaltake is offering today for the top-of-the-line graphics cards: CL-G0009, which is bigger in size and transfers the heat outside the system case via additional heatpipes and a copper heatsink.
Highs:
- Noiseless operation;
- Large cooling surface;
- Two heatpipes;
- Highly efficient with additional external cooling;
- Relatively lightweight.
Lows:
- Complicated assembly and mounting procedure;
- Low efficiency in passive mode;
- No compatibility information for different graphics cards models in the manual.
