None,
The Thermaltake MaxOrb EX is simple to install and offers excellent use of space inside the case. The compact design allows for high performance cooling in a smaller mid tower or more narrow case that does not allow enough room for a vertical stack hea...
The Thermaltake MaxOrb EX really proved to be a significant upgrade from the older MaxOrb. While I wouldnt say torun out and switch this one for your old one (unless you want to; the old one is still nice), Id definitly say that this is worth the $6...
Large LED Fan, Simple Installation, Cooper Construction, Builtin Fan Controller, Great Performance.
Size might be an issue for some, Fins bend easily, be careful mounting it, Dont like the PushPin mounts for such a a large cooler.
The ThermalTake MaxOrb EX also has a Blue LED fan, which might give you some visual pleasure in your mod. The overall performance was very well keeping up with the Noctua NH C12P and Nirvana NV120 CPU coolers. The installation is relatively simple pro...
Good capable heatsink sufficient enough for overclocking, No shortage of copper or surface area equates to decent value, The CPU die area was easy to clean and flat enough to make surfacing an easy task, Manual fan RPM control, Should be a good party...
Fairly expensive (could be due to the cost of fan control).
Is it any good? The Max ORB EX is an outstanding block of copper love. There are a few gremlins in the cooler though, although I more want to question the shipper rather than the manufacturer. Our HSF arrived with a few bent fins, which were easily st...
Great cooling temperatures, Adjustable fan speed, Pure copper construction, Effectively uses the not so great pushpin installation, MultiCPU support
User manual could be more detailed
I was pretty surprised with the results the MaxOrb EX achieved. I wasnt quite expecting such good results. Good results though do come with a price at times. At the Thermaltake website the retail price is $69.99, but with a quick online search it can...
The Thermaltake MaxOrb EX is nearly identical in most ways to the previously-released MaxOrb. The EX sets itself apart through its use of copper fins in the outer heatpipe ring and its inclusion of a tube of Thermaltakes own thermal compound with the ...
Abstract: Thermaltakes MaxOrb EX heatsink comes with a manual fan speed controller on the side of the 120mm diameter fan, allowing users to adjust speeds from 1300-2000RPM. ...
So far pricing for the Thermaltake MaxOrb EX is not available, though we expect it to be quite pricey given that it is largely made up of copper. This combined with the sheer size of the heatsink means that the MaxOrb EX weighs just under 600 grams. Th...
Recent product launches have really shaken up the performance database this month, with just about everyone getting a new cooler out before Computex. Take away the new Noctua, Sunbeamtech and ZEROtherm coolers and the MaxOrb EX would be in the runni...
Better Performance than Original MaxOrb, Easy Installation, Lower Height than other Coolers
Flimsy Fins on Heatsink
The MaxOrb EX from Thermaltake is a nice update to a good cooler, and in our testing we found it to be a very decent cooler worthy of your consideration. The performance has increased over the original MaxOrb (due to the extra copper in the cooler), b...
