Thermaltake CPU Coolers really dont need much on an introduction to most people, theyve been around and are known for making very nice products for enthusiasts. Since the days of the Golden Orb, Thermaltake has had great success in the cooling mark...
Very Quiet at Low Speeds, Easy Installation, Good Performance...
Nothing Major...
Over the years Thermaltake has produced some great CPU Coolers, and the Big Typhoon VX is just another in their line of great coolers. Thermaltake was one of the pioneers in the enthusiast cooling market, and they just keep pumping out great products...

It’s hard to look at Thermaltake’s Big Typhoon VX cooler and not think one of two things: the most horrific joke you can make about size mattering and the current market price of the Dremel you’ll need to cut a hole in your case to make room for this G...
One of the best air coolers we've ever tested. And it's pretty quiet.
It's friggin' huge.

The Big Typhoon VX is a good CPU cooler from Thermaltake, which makes justice to its name. It’s huge and heavy, but it has the advantage of carrying a large diameter 120mm fan, which can be used at low rotations, but still provide good airflow...

In our recent review of the Thermaltake MaxOrb and the Scythe Andy Samurai Master we evaluated whether the traditional down-facing fan coolers delivered the better performance and cooler computer systems their ads promise. Unfortunately, while both coo...
We concluded in our comments on the Scythe Andy Samurai Master vs. Thermaltake MaxOrb review that the heatpipe tower has emerged as the best performing design among the coolers we have tested. None of the down-facing fan coolers have been able to reall...

Imagine you are building the ultimate computer. For the ultimate processor, you will definitely need the ultimate cooling solution. Thermaltake has seemingly headed everyone’s plea for a big monster of a cooler with this Big Typhoon VX. Founded in 1...
Quiet cooler, Modular design, Easy to install, Built in fan controller...
Weight, Size, Poorer performance than cheaper coolers...
After seeing the performance of this cooler, even on an overclocked CPU, it left me with few doubts regarding its ability. The sheer size and cooling performance of this thing make it a must have for any enthusiast or hardcore overclocker. This unit w...

The Big Typhoon VX is almost identical in size to the original Big Typhoon HSF. It is a rather large cooler but thanks to its tapered shape, the cooler provides good clearance around the CPU socket area. The main heatsink section of the Big Typ...
Excellent performance, Very good heatsink build quality, Bundled 120mm variable speed fan, Easy to install (will vary by motherboard), Supports both Intel LGA775 and AMD K8/AM2 platforms, Looks good...
Mounting hardware not as robust as previous systems, Fan speed control mounted on top of cooler (not easily accessible)...
The Big Typhoon VX heatsink fan delivers excellent performance, offers a broad operating range, and looks great. The speed of the included 120mm fan can be adjusted to provide the right balance of cooling performance and noise. However, getting to...

Last month I reviewed the Aerocool Xfire, OCZ Tempest and the Monsoon II Active TEC CPU cooling kits and and found that while all performed well more was left to be desired. When Thermaltake contacted Legit Reviews asking if we would take a look at...
The Thermaltake Big Typhoon VX can easily handle the heat produced by Intel's Core 2 Duo processors and can even handle Intel Core 2 Quad processors meaning this heat sink will last more than one upgrade...

A little while ago Thermaltake released the Big Typhoon CPU cooler. It was a really great CPU cooler and performed well. Now Thermaltake has just released the updated version of the original Big Typhoon, the Big Typhoon VX. The Big Typhoon VX has been...
Quality Built, Easy Installation, Variable Speed Fan, GREAT performance, Compatible with LGA775, K8, and AM2...
Fan connector could be longer...
The Thermaltake Big Typhoon VX is a BEAST! It is the best air-cooled CPU we have taken a look at so far. With an amazing temperature of 23 degrees during idle you really cannot match that with another air-cooled CPU cooler. Also the load performance w...

Now with "Very Xtra" Good. A long long time ago in the land of igloos and polar bears, we took a look at the Thermaltake Big Typhoon Silent CPU Cooler, the original gargantuan heat-piped heatsink with aluminum fins just big enough to satisfy the 120mm...
Huge cooling ability both physically and thermally, Extremely simplified installation, especially on the AMD under Socket 939/AM2, Low fan speed is nice and quiet, Integrated fan control knob simplifies operation (but placement is not ideal)...
Installation under an INTEL LGA775 platform required disassembly of the system, High Fan Speed was nearly useless in our tests, and much too noisy.
The Big Typhoon VX certainly flexes its coppery muscles with a very impressive drop in temperature over the stock cooler for the Core 2 Duo. Its performance today is just a testament to the solid design skills from years ago. Flexing the "Hexapipes"...

Thermaltake Big Typhoon VX CPU Cooler Thermaltake has been in the computer industry for sometime now offering up a nice array of computer related hardware. Some of their hardware line up includes cooling components like the Big Typhoon VX. Therma...
This isnt the largest heatsink fan I have reviewed, but it is the first with six separate heat-pipes and a set of two cooling fins. Does this design lead to better cooling? Well, the numbers in the testing dont lie. The was only a few degrees C...
