00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:14.599
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the thermal R ha Silver Arrow SB so

00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:20.080
that's Sandy Bridge e so that means it supports LGA 2011

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:22.720
extreme so I have actually already taken

00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:27.199
a look at two very similar coolers in the past the coage arrow which is sort

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:32.040
of like a less finished version of the Silver Arrow and the Silver Arrow

00:00:30.560 --> 00:00:35.559
now I get to check out the Silver Arrow extreme it definitely comes with a more

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:39.559
extreme sticker the last thermal right sticker I got was much less extreme than

00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:43.120
that totally different colors it looks like it comes with some different fans

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:47.719
and it comes with two of them which is very exciting as well so they've added

00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:54.280
support for LGA 2011 which is new ooh different colored fans too those look

00:00:51.520 --> 00:01:00.079
extreme that is for certain so we' got a red frame and orange blades on this 140

00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:05.439
mm fan however check this out because uses a rounded frame you can easily

00:01:02.199 --> 00:01:08.080
Mount these to 120 mm mounting holes in

00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:13.520
your case or whatever else you're using as long as you have enough space around

00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:16.360
it to accommodate the 140 mm size of the

00:01:13.520 --> 00:01:21.799
blades so here let's go ahead and pull this bad boy out as well there's another

00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:25.400
one matching okay the extremeness is

00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:28.040
piling up here next we have the cooler

00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:32.200
itself oh it is more extreme look at that it has a sign significantly more

00:01:31.119 --> 00:01:38.119
extreme shape compared to the original thermal

00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:42.680
right Silver Arrow this thing is oh this thing is gorgeous thermal R coolers

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:49.719
really are the cream of the cream when it comes to Performance and Aesthetics

00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:51.479
so here let's go hold on there we go so

00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:56.079
all the accessories are in here they also have phenomenal mounting mechanisms

00:01:53.880 --> 00:02:02.680
and I hope I'm not about to be sort of shown up here as I pull out like plastic

00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:05.799
mounting pieces nope not at all check

00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:07.719
this out once I get my handy knife and

00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:12.599
actually open it so oh I had it open in my pocket that could have been bad I

00:02:10.160 --> 00:02:16.480
could have lost like significant parts of my

00:02:13.640 --> 00:02:20.840
anatomy with that going on it's not a good thing it's a bad thing yeah slick

00:02:18.920 --> 00:02:25.800
agrees that's bad okay so I talked about solid

00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:29.720
mounting hardware check this out we are totally going to do this we are going to

00:02:27.200 --> 00:02:32.640
pull out the iPhone size comparison for this

00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:39.000
this is a solid piece of Steel it is going nowhere not anywhere will it go

00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:44.200
awesome love to see it same thing with the back plate the back plate is going

00:02:41.519 --> 00:02:48.159
nowhere it weighs like 3 lb look at this thing similar thickness to the uh to the

00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:54.400
hold down plate actually it looks like it might even be a little thick no they're about the same again not going

00:02:52.200 --> 00:03:00.319
anywhere Universal compatibility so there's your 775 1155 1156 and 1366 or

00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:04.440
2011 or something something whatever they're all in here oh maybe 775 is no

00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:09.799
longer no it's supported okay well I'll assume they're all in there somewhere

00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:13.040
maybe 1 2 3 4 actually okay awesome

00:03:09.799 --> 00:03:13.040
they've also got

00:03:13.239 --> 00:03:18.599
um uh anti- conductive oh non-conductive

00:03:16.519 --> 00:03:22.519
pads and spacers and all the little pieces you need here's all the hard

00:03:20.760 --> 00:03:27.159
Mount mounting screws so it does use a hard Mount system which is again awesome

00:03:25.519 --> 00:03:30.400
and not going anywhere and let's get this iPhone off the table let's get

00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:34.080
these keys off the table and let's be done with the actually

00:03:32.720 --> 00:03:38.040
let's be done with the mounting hardware for now we're going to go along to the

00:03:36.640 --> 00:03:42.640
instructions so check this out I love the way thermal R does their instructions so these actually sorry

00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:48.439
these weren't uh these weren't isolating pads these are isolating pads for the fans anti vibration pads so you can

00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:50.920
mount them on there using these clips and not have to worry about any

00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:56.159
vibrations being transferred to your cooler the spacer ring here is the only

00:03:53.879 --> 00:04:00.120
piece and as well as these isolating pieces are the ones that keep all the

00:03:58.239 --> 00:04:05.280
metal pieces off your motherboard and safe so they've got different instructions for different sockets and

00:04:03.480 --> 00:04:09.040
how to do everything that you need to do and all the hardware is included of

00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:13.079
course just make sure this is you know what this is like you know Linus Linus

00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:18.239
Common Sense tips but a lot of people have problems with this guys when you

00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:23.800
install it on your LGA 1155 system don't throw away like the

00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:27.320
AMD mounting hardware or the 2011 mounting hardware or whatever else the

00:04:25.320 --> 00:04:31.199
case may be because who knows you may upgrade your system at some point and it

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:35.639
may be handy to still have that all right next we have six fan Clips why

00:04:34.440 --> 00:04:41.320
would they do that when they only include two fans well because you can

00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:44.560
get an additional fan and go one two

00:04:41.320 --> 00:04:46.759
three for like a double layered sandwich

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:51.600
effect not that you'd actually eat a heat sink because that would be stupid

00:04:48.919 --> 00:04:56.199
you would die you would literally die if you ate this it would shred your insides

00:04:54.759 --> 00:05:00.280
but I'm sure you weren't planning to do that last couple of included accessories

00:04:58.440 --> 00:05:05.600
and look at the sleeving quality on these that's outstanding is it focusing

00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:08.080
okay that's great love it love what

00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:13.320
thermal right's done there okay so what they've got going here is two four pin p

00:05:10.880 --> 00:05:17.639
oh these are four pin pwm fans again excellent sleeving on the fans as well

00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:20.960
check that out love it so two four pin pwm connectors so you can plug that into

00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:25.440
a single CPU connector on your motherboard or you can plug them into a

00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:30.720
Molex they are both wired up and if you didn't want one of these connectors you

00:05:27.479 --> 00:05:33.319
could just go ahead and no wait hold on

00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:36.199
on no you'll need both sorry power is provided by this and then pwm is

00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:40.880
provided by this so you're going to want to run that sort of like behind your motherboard or something all as sort of

00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:45.800
one nice look at that it's like individually sleeved cable effect people

00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:47.440
love that stuff these days finally guys

00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:52.759
the heat sink itself so the difference between the co gaug arrow and the Silver

00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:55.639
Arrow was the finish on it so it had a

00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:59.800
much shinier much more reflective much more blinged out looking finish uh they

00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:02.919
both had the same number of heat pipes they both had the same general design

00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:06.639
although the Silver Arrow had a much nicer overall finish to things like the

00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:10.840
tops of the heat pipes you know how heat pipes always have one finished end one

00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:14.479
rounded end and then one pinched end because they come in standard lengths

00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:17.400
and that's not always suitable for you know whatever various coolers so they

00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:22.720
pinch them shut in order to keep the gases and the liquids inside them so

00:06:20.599 --> 00:06:27.199
thermal R has implemented these caps on here so that it'll look uniform on both

00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:30.199
sides and gorgeous no matter what you do now you can see what they've done is

00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:35.360
actually the heat pipes in the center here closer to where the D of the CPU is

00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:38.319
actually located actually have more fins

00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:42.919
on them so it goes up higher and then as you move out away from the die of the

00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:47.199
CPU there are fewer and fewer and fewer fins actually attached to that

00:06:45.400 --> 00:06:51.240
particular part of the bottom of the cooler now I'm expecting the finish on

00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:54.520
here to be Immaculate because it's thermal right I can already tell from

00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:58.360
the way lights reflecting off it it's got a bit of a bow and what a bow does

00:06:56.680 --> 00:07:03.080
is it puts more pressure on the very center which AIDS thermal compound

00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:07.960
spreading and it also helps to make stronger pressure between or to have

00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:12.919
stronger pressure between the CPU heat sink itself and the heat spreader on the

00:07:10.599 --> 00:07:16.000
CPU in in exchange sort of the die so there's the tighter that contact point

00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:19.400
is and the less space there is in between all those components the better

00:07:17.919 --> 00:07:23.440
your cooling will be because the better the heat transmission will be now of

00:07:21.280 --> 00:07:27.400
course we can't you know get away from the obligatory finger shot there so that

00:07:25.960 --> 00:07:33.560
is how shiny and reflective it is although it should be noted guys reflectiveness does does not necessarily

00:07:31.280 --> 00:07:37.280
indicate flatness which is much more important when it comes to CPU cooling

00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:42.360
total number of heat pipes on this bad boy is eight there are eight heat pipes

00:07:39.960 --> 00:07:46.560
running in a u shape down through the bottom here up through the other side it

00:07:44.840 --> 00:07:50.159
looks absolutely stunning in its shininess I'm going to go ahead and off

00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:55.120
camera we're going to install the fans so you can see what it'll actually look

00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:59.120
like once you put those on well if we were going for the extreme look I think

00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:06.000
we have achieved that with the red and orange and the silver and the shininess

00:08:02.960 --> 00:08:08.039
and just yeah this thing's looks

00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:11.960
freaking awesome thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the

00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:14.560
thermal right Silver Arrow extreme don't forget to subscribe to lus Tech tips
