   Although we're near the end of September and thus the summer season should be long over by now that's not really the case here so with temperatures as high as 36 degrees Celsius it really comes as very little surprise that people are still looking for a good CPU cooler for their systems. It goes without saying that since most consumers place price above performance the most popular solutions currently are air coolers followed closely by AIO liquid coolers but what really took us by surprise is that custom water cooling kits/loops are selling quite well lately (because of that we will bring you yet another such review by the end of this week) probably due to the reduced price gap between them and AIO solutions currently. Today’s review however is about one of the latest non-interference CPU air cooler models introduced by Thermaltake the NiC L32.

 

     The beginning of every myth and legend is about dreams and desire: the challenging, creative and combative features of Thermaltake Group create an exciting and fascinating user experience to share with everyone, while allowing users to enter a selfless state in terms of function and potential. Thermaltake Group's 3 main brands: Thermaltake, Tt eSPORTS and LUXA2 have been merchandising throughout the world, and have successfully established 6 business footholds in areas such as Europe, America, Oceania, Japan and China, with 95 regional distributors and over 4000 premium retailers. All product planning is orientated by observation of global PC peripheral market and understanding of consumer demands. Thermaltake creates direct contact opportunities with resellers and consumers by participating major global ICT exhibitions and trade shows every year, and develop innovative marketing strategies for the promotions of new products. Meanwhile, Thermaltake incorporates the composite marketing system by making branch offices and regional distributors both the distribution channel and technical support or service center to provide instant support; by maintaining close contact with end users, we manage to strengthen corporate competitiveness and create the momentum for the growth of accomplishments. With its outstanding wisdom and strength Thermaltake Group is recruiting creative talents to build a cultural brand for the enjoyment of entertainment, e-Sports, technology and lifestyle!

 

   The NiC L32 CPU Cooler by Thermaltake follows the successful path of its predecessors (we had the C5 model with us roughly two years ago) so once again we see a tower heatpipe design with a thin enough profile that offers zero clearance issues with both the mainboard and the RAM modules. Additionally the latest NiC L32 has a TDP (thermal design power) of 180W and comes ready with an 140mm low profile high-speed PWM fan and three 8mm nickel plated copper heat-pipes that come in direct contact with the CPU cover (direct contact heat-pipe technology). It's clear that specs-wise the NiC L32 is not only smaller and lacks the plastic shroud we saw with the C5 model but it also features one fan (the C5 has two in push & pull) and comes with fewer (although thicker) heatpipes so although we're quite curious to see how it does we don't really expect it to surpass its predecessor.
