Manufacturer: ThermaltakeSupplier: Savastore (non value pack edition) The Mini Typhoon is Thermaltake's latest offering to the enthusiast crowd. It follows after it's bigger brother, the Big Typhoon, which combined excellent cooling capability whilst being literally inaudible. The version Thermaltake sent us was the "Value Pack" edition. It's identical to the normal Mini Typhoon apart from the included bundle comprising of a custom fan mount, 2 Blue LED satellite fans and a bag of screws. The satelite fans can be attached to the heatsink to aid in cooling other hotspots on your motherboard such as the VRMs or passively cooled northbridge sinks. Alternatively, you can use them to cool hot running RAM such as modules using winbond BH-5 chips. The value pack is a thoughtful addition to the Mini Typhoon, so kudos to Thermaltake for the excellent idea. Unfortunately, at present, we couldn't find priing or availability of the Value Pack edition in the UK, but we reckon it'll be around £3 more than the normal one. The heatsink itself it completely made of copper and uses 6 heatpipes to aid cooling. The quality of construction really shines through and the copper looks very bling. Heatpipes seem to be the de-facto standard of all new coolers catered towards the enthusiast market, so their presence here wasn't much of a surprise. The cooler is a universal fitting one and will fit on LGA 775 and AM2 sockets along with socket 939 based motherboards. Let's move on and take a detailed look at the technical specifications:
