Introduction
Today 3DXtreme is taking a look at one of the most popular AMD64 Coolers on the market, the Thermalright XP-90. The Thermalright XP-90 seems to be the favorite method of air cooling by overclockers far and wide and is currently regarded as the best air cooler on the market. The Thermalright XP-120 may rival the XP-90 however with its gigantic size however the XP-120 only fits a few fortunate Motherboards. The XP-90 uses a smaller 92mm fan but is much more likely to fit an existing Socket 939 Motherboard. Let's take a look at the Specifications and get right into the review.
