Thermal Take Super Orb: Much More Appearance Than Reality! Continued
The quality is rather mediocre and cannot compete with the top candidates in the test field. The distance between fan propeller and guide vane is much too great, so that optimal air circulation cannot be achieved.
Thermal Take's Super Orb installed. The smart design cannot compensate for the bad cooling effect.
The Super Orb gives the overall impression that it was made by developers with little knowledge in the field. This is clearly shown in the rotating vanes of both fan propellers, which are not at all aerodynamically designed. Still, the cooling performance is quite acceptable with cooling temperatures of 39°C. This places the Super Orb in the upper ranks of the test candidates. When it comes to noise level, Thermal Take's cooler ranks at the bottom, the noise level is 55 dB(A). Considering the cooling performance offered, this level is not acceptable.
We can only warn against purchasing the Super Orb, which is nothing but your classic phoney. Only a complete redesign would improve matters, honing being a waste of time.
Both the small air cooler and the large Super Orb manufactured by Thermal Take are phoneys. The Super Orb offers sufficient cooling capacity, but little else.
