Introduction

Thermaltake's Orb series has been very popular. We have checked out both the Ruby Orb, and Golden Orb. Each of them performed well and received good scores. The MaxOrb has a little different design, but still has the "Orb" motif. The MaxOrb features a 6 heatpipe design, 120mm fan, and a copper base. Although the base is made of copper the rest of the heatsink is aluminum. Hopefully its design will come in to play to help cooling because as we all know copper cools much better than aluminum.

Just like the V1, Thermaltake has used their new packaging design on the MaxOrb. The front is opened up so you can take a look at the MaxOrb. The back of the package has a listing of features and specs as well as diagrams.


Opening up the box we have the cooler and a small box of accessories. The box of accessories includes mounting hardware for AMD and Intel, thermal paste, and instructions.
