Thermalright Macho Rev.A (BW) CPU Cooler Review
Ryan Martin / 12 years ago
Thermalright have mastered the art of a perfectly mirror-finish nickel plated copper base. Those six copper heat pipes look extremely sturdy and for anyone wondering about the “random” hole in heatsink, that is to allow a screwdriver (which is provided!) access so you can mount the product.
From the top we can see those six 6mm heat pipes more closely. You can also see an extra set of fan clip holes on the other side should you wish to do push-pull, but unfortunately additional fan clips are not included with the product although they can be purchases separately for a few pounds.
The spacing between the fins is wide which means it won’t struggle with the limited airflow of only one fan.
The included fan is a large 140mm low RPM fan. In theory the use of a 140mm fan should provide more airflow with lower noise output than a 120mm, which is a win-win for everyone.
