Looks sharp, but we can do without the TT stickers on the fan. They could have either left them off and put them in the box or integrated them into the fans, but stickers? Man....  |

| I'm not a fan of the over-use of plastic, but i would still consider getting this unit because it's performance is one of the best. |

The thing is, if they used another material, it would overload the socket mechanism and it could potentially bust your computer.

Yea, this si where the balance comes into play. Make it perfect and it will have a perfect high price to match.

| I'm really of two minds when it comes to this cooler. Appearance is so subjective that I try to avoid putting much importance on it with respect to the review rating. The use of plastic keeps this relatively expensive cooler from becoming a VERY expensive cooler, so it seems to me to be a worthwhile tradeoff. What I would have liked to see is an external speed controller to allow the user to adjust fan speed without removing the case side panel. As I said in the review, it's a top performer, but the fans are very loud at top speed and an easier way to modulate the fan would be a big plus. |

Or they could use PWM fans.
