    Most Visually Appealing CPU Aircooler?

    Hey there folks, I was just admiring my favourite Aircooler, so I thought ill make a thread, everyone can post and tell us what CPU cooler they think LOOKS the best! The most Bling bling! I cant take my eyes of these two:

    The Silent Knight all copper, which I currently use...



    The Silent Knight AL, takes my breath away



    So tell us what do you like? Also try to post a picture of your eye-candy!

    SiM, your cooler was downright funny, LOL!!!

    and matty...you think Orochi is visually appealing?...I think its downright ugly...but yes, would do a hell of a job cooling the CPU...i was looking more on the "Beauty" lines...superficial you know

    Re: Most Visually Appealing CPU Aircooler?

    I may have found it attractive when I was 12-I prefer understated such as Thermalright.
    Bling-free and just does it's job.

    Good to know that you would have found them attractive when you were 12

    As i posted earlier as well, we all know which cooler(s) will do the best job, we are simply showing the coolers we find visually attractive, which look good in our rig and add to the bling bling...I hope you understand the topic now, as opposed to understanding it if you were 12?

    No offence, if you dont likse ASUS coolers, fine by me, but we are discussing superficial looks, not performance, since we all know about that.
