Thermalright SI-128 SE "Silent Edition." 6 Heatpipe Quiet CPU Heatpipe Heatsink
Thermalright SI-128 SE Quiet CPU Heatpipe Cooler Description
In 2006 when Thermalright released the SI-128, it became an instant hit amongst enthusiasts. As always Thermalright looks to improve their products and as
a result they have added proprietary thru holes on every fin to enhance ventilation by increasing airflow air-to-surface contact with air, Thermalright call this
all new CPU heatsink the SI-128 SE (Silent Edition)!
Other similar structured (blow down) heatsinks have no support at the front of the cooler. Thermalright claim that heatpipes alone are not enough to support
the weight of the fins. Over time the excessive weight can strain the heatpipes and causes them to bend and when heatpipes are bent performance level
decreases. Thermalright certainly thought of this issue when designing the SI-128 SE. They put two heavy duty metal bars at the front to support the
heatsink and preventing the heatpipes from being bent.
A popular belief is that a tower heatsink has the advantage over blow down heatsinks in performance and overall versatility even though blow down
heatsinks help cool their surroundings. Thermalright SI-128 SE will prove that it can cool as well as a tower heatsink if not better.
The SI-128 SE features all the advantage of SI-128 in that it is easy to install and has a high motherboard compatibility. For those who do not have the room
but want the power of a tower heatsink, go for the SI-128 SE. You’ll see that it takes little (room) and gives a lot!
