IMHO-It's hideous, that's the only problem. Style and performance matter to me..although I do like the fact that it is quieter because of that.

The light blue sure is...if only that were clear, or black or something else.

I don't have a clear side panel...so not an issue for me. Not that the stock Intel HSF is loud..but I'm ordering some odds 'n ends today...considering giving this a go.

The review I poured through...man this is potent...beat a lot of top names in cooling.

Hey cat, you can always take it apart and paint the finned barrel any color you want

Don't waste your $$$$$$
Won't come close to a Thermalright SLK 800 or 9oo with any fan .

I'm using the Aero7 with a XP1700 OC'ed to 2ghz. Full load temp is 39c and I have it spinning right at 3000rpm. This is a cool and quiet HSF! I would recommend it without a question. I am going to order the Aero4 for my Intel machine.
