Overclocked Cafe has taken a look at three of Titan's CPU coolers - the D6T, the D5T, and the TTC-MT1-AB5 (Majesty Twin Cooler).

All 3 coolers in this review have some common features that are well worth talking about. The first thing I noticed was a very high level of fit and finish, the base plates are very smooth (although lapping still could improve then a little) with all machined edges finished off so no rough edges are present. Each cooler came with a tube of silver goo, and in the case of the D5T and D6T a 3 wire to Molex adapter was included. Also, an interesting feature that the 2 conventional HSF have is a alarm attached to the power lines, this alarm will sound a VERY annoying squeal if the power is on, and the fan stops turning.

Hardware Extreme has posted a review on the IMT-Max Case.

The first thing I installed was the power supply, this went without a hitch and was very easy to do. This case uses the usual four screw system to screw in the power supply. Next I installed the motherboard, here is where things started getting weird.

PimpRig has posted a review on Thermaltake's latest cooler, the Volcano 7.

As the air temperature around the thermostat increases, the RPM's also increase. This is a major step towards true active cooling. This thermally controlled fan can have its ups and downs. The ups are obvious. If your system doesn't run very hot you'll garner lower RPM's and therefore, a low amount of noise.
