 Today I'll be unboxing the V6 GT muscle cooling 200 plus watt cooling solution from Cooler Master. This is an upgrade to their V6 cooler, obviously, and it has muscle. Unlike me. Okay, so it is compatible with Intel LGA 1366, 1156, and 775. It's also compatible with AMD AM3, AM2, and AM2+. So it's compatible with pretty much every modern socket out there right now, and by pretty much I do mean all. You can see through, there's like an engine looking thing, and they've got a picture of the cooler, and you can see the cooler itself. So let's have a quick look at what they have to say about it on the packaging outside. So far not a whole lot. Ah, here it is. Okay, so it is highly dense and tilted aluminum fins, so you can expect this to perform best with a high static pressure fan. I'm actually just going to open it and then sort of talk about it while we're looking at the product rather than talk about it while we're looking at the box. Ooh, this looks cool, actually. Here it is, the V6 GT. Apparently perfect for case modders. Oh, I was half expecting this to be like a fan speed controller, but it's not. That's a good idea, actually. I should suggest that to somebody. Okay, so on either side we've got Cooler Master's, uh, oh, these are cool. So this is one of their new series of fans. It has kind of a wave shape to the fins, which apparently gives you better performance, okay? So that's great. It includes their latest fans. You flip it over so you can see that the fins are indeed quite densely packed. And it does feature six discrete heat pipes. Now these are relatively... Oh, okay, no, that's okay. Never mind. As soon as I move this, that fan will spin. There we go. So it features six discrete heat pipes. Now they're not the thick heat pipes, but there are so many of them. I can't imagine that it matters all of that much. So I'm just gonna go ahead and sort of push all of the... all of the cables and stuff out of here so that I can get access to them and show you exactly how to hook it up. So it is a push-pull heatsink. That means that the two fans, one is pushing air into the heatsink, the other one is pulling air through. So when you've got a dense fin arrangement, that is the best way to set it up because push-pull doesn't actually increase the CFM, the airflow. But what it does do is it increases the pressure. So it makes it so that it will slow down the air less to have these fins in the way. So we've got one adapter that basically takes a PWM fan header on your motherboard, preferably your CPU one, and then turns it into two PWM fans headers for the cooler itself. So it's sleeved so you could kind of like tuck this one under the heatsink like that and then have it just come out with the sleeved bit and plug that right into your motherboard. So it should look quite tidy. Then you've also got a Molex plug here, and I've had a bit of a loss for what that would be for. Maybe we'll go find out after. Okay, let's have a look at what we've got in terms of installation instructions and accessories. So we've got a user's manual. Okay, that's quite small. Then we have a warranty card, also quite small. And then we have a less small user's manual. Okay, that's in a bunch of different languages, and it gives you a little picture guide of how to install on all the different sockets, including, oh, this is good, you can actually install the AM2, AM3 in either direction. So you're not married to one way or the other, because remember the AM3 mounting equipment is not square. So let's go ahead and sort of see if we can get these fans off, actually. Why don't we do that first? I don't know if I'm going to be able to do that, especially on camera. That seems like it might be quite challenging. Maybe it's just a matter of pulling it out this way. No, that's not it. Okay, maybe it's a matter of pressing this button. No, that button does something, though, and we're going to find out what it does before this video is through. Maybe that's what you're waiting for. Maybe that's why you're still watching the video, so you can find out what exactly that button does. I suspect it's something to do with lights. I'll say that much. Okay. Apparently, it is not really designed to be easily taken apart, although I suspect there is a way to take it apart, and it's not all that difficult, but I'm just having trouble. So why don't we do our obligatory finger shot thing here to see the shininess of the base, because everyone likes that. If you don't like that, feel free to leave a comment and tell me you don't care. Okay. Oh, you can tell right away that this is actually a convex base, so that's designed to get better mounting pressure against the CPU. There you go. You can see that. Okay, now let's go over into my office, where I have a power supply plugged into the space under my desk. Okay, just follow me. So my office is two doors down from the cameraman, which you probably don't already know, unless you're a super creeper. Okay, so I'm just going to plug this power supply in, assuming I can find a power plug to plug it in with. You know, it's funny, because I thought I had one. Ah, here we go. Okay, so we'll plug in this power supply. This is my random fan testing power supply. It is jumpered on, and I'm going to go ahead and plug this in, and we'll find out what it does. Okay, so far nothing. Now we're going to press the button. Oh, check it out. It's red. So there is a red LED light strip that goes down the top of the V6 GT cooler. Ooh, or blue. Oh, I like it. Purple or nothing. Red, blue, purple or nothing. I personally would choose this one, because I think that looks sweet. And you know what? I wouldn't be all that surprised at this point if the fans are LED too, but okay, here. Just turn the camera off for a second. So I couldn't find an adapter, so I had to find a computer that's on. So we're going to go ahead and plug in the 4-pin PWM fan header that splits out into two, and we're going to plug that in here. Now this fan is running Linux, so it is under full 100% load, so that's going to be the maximum fan speed, but it pushes quite a bit of air. And what's interesting actually is that compared to standing or sitting or kneeling, whatever I'm doing, right in front of it like this, if you turn it to the side, you actually hear it a lot less. So that's a pretty good thing about the shroud, I guess. Here, why don't I go ahead and plug this in for the full effect. There we go. So this is what it would look like if you installed it in a computer, which maybe I'll do later. Purple, yeah. Okay, so there. That's my video on the V6 GT from Cooler Master.
