Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme Rev C CPU Heatsink

If you think 3 dual heat pipes are something to wow about, wait till you hear about this one…how’s about a 4th dual heat pipe for maximum heat transfer!! But that’s not all, due to the winglet design mentioned earlier; it has greater surface area than our own SI-120 and XP-120. That translates into more cooling power than either of them. Doesn’t that just leave you speechless?

• Mounting Kits
  • Please note this heatsink includes brackets for the processor types listed in the Specifications table below.
  • Intel LGA 1156 Bolt Thru Kit - Adapter that allows the Ultra-120 Extreme to mount on a Intel LGA 1156 Socket.
  • 939 Bolt Thru Kit - Adapter that allows the Ultra-120 Extreme to mount on a Socket 939 motherboard.
  • Xeon Bolt Thru Kit - Adapter that allows the Ultra-120 Extreme to mount a Xeon 5000/7000 Series processors.
• Lapping - Get the best performance from your heatsink with our Lapping option. We will lap the base giving it a nice flat and smooth finish. This option will Void the warranty of the heatsink making this product non-returnable once you have purchased this option. Lapped base is shown in picture to right. We start with a 220 grid and finish with a 1000 grit. Our goal is a flat smooth surface (not mirror finish).
• Heavy Duty Pro Lapping Kit - The Heavy Duty Pro Lapping Kit is a Do-It-Yourself heatsink lapping kit. It contains 5 sheets of sandpaper including 120, 220, 400, 800 & 1000 grit. By sanding the bottom of the heatsink you are removing the grooves and imperfections in the heatsink, thus creating a flatter smoother surface.

Reviews

• Overclockers Online - "Another review has come to a close and Thermalright have outdone themselves again. The Thermalright Ultra-120 is a bit different from the XP-120 design and with that design there are some slight drawbacks but the CPU cooling ability seems to have been approved upon."
