Hype can be fun to pass along, but let's put all that aside for the moment and take a good look at the Tuniq Tower 120 heatsink. The Tower 120's main claim to fame is an integrated 120mm fan, set uniquely within the body of a densely packed array of aluminum cooling fins. You can't see the fan from the outside, and when dialed down to 1000RPM it is pretty hard to hear the fan either. In that regard, the Tuniq Tower 120 has the making of a good low noise CPU heatsink.

The Tower can't match the awesome Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro for price-performance, and it's generally far cheaper than the Noctua NH-U12 and matches the price of the Thermaltake V1 as well. The Karma Cross on the other hand performs about the same for about £5 less. Even though its performance at the lowest, and quietest speed (the only one I'd run it at) is less than fantastic, I'm still quite impressed. I love the look and style - it's more than a boring square: it's currrrrvyyy. The installation is easy, it should fit any motherboard and far more secure than craptacular plastic push-pins, even if it does require removing the motherboard from the case.

For their first release of a CPU cooler, Tuniq have a real winner here. It is unique with the integration of a standard size fan in the middle of the cooler. 120mm fan means good airflow at low speeds, and even at high speed it is not as bad as a lot of smaller fans which need high RPM's. Installation was easy for the size of the unit thanks to the attention to detail - the thumbscrews and the space to see what you are doing when the fan was removed. For those of you with windowed case, just add a LED fan for a bit of lighting effect...
