Yep, popped a couple Thermaltake Silent Boost's on there a few months ago and haven't looked back since :-)

Yeah I don't overclock either, but the stock fans are usually too loud, especially for a dual processor system when you have 2 of them.

Re: Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF

Just thought I'd let everyone know that the SilentBoosts fit nicely into the Tyan Tiger MPX. It's a bit tight, but I got them in without too much trouble and they are GREAT! Dropped the temps by 10 degrees celsius per CPU and is MUCH quieter than what I had before.

Re: Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF

Yeah I think you might be right - I think I might risk it. I can always find someone to buy them off me if they don't fit. Someone in the Tyan newsgroup did mention they fit them in, however someone also said they fit in the SLK900 which I've had retailers tell me not a hope in hell. It was a retail...

Re: Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF

Re: Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF

Hi, thanks for the reply. My main concern is the tight fit on the Tyan Tiger MPX dual AMD board. Both the SK7 and Silentboost are around the same length, and the SK-7 is even a bit taller, but the the Silentboost seems to be wider which is my main concern. There are capacitors very close to both the...

Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF

Hi there, I enjoyed your article about the Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF ( http://www.legitreviews.com/Reviews/ttsb_1.shtml ) and was just wondering if you or anyone else knows if 2 of them will fit on a Tyan Tiger MPX dual AMD motherboard. It's hard to find coolers small enough to fit on this board,...
