Titan Amanda TEC Cooler

Introduction:

    In this review we will be going over a new CPU cooler from Titan named Amanda. This cooler is the largest I have reviewed to date, and the first with a peltier attached. The Amanda comes in two styles: one for AMD and one for Intel. Basically, it's a heat-pipe cooler with assistance from a peltier. When peltiers hit the computer world a few years ago, everyone had to have one. A bunch of bad stories came out about them and before you knew it, it seemed like peltiers fell off the face of the earth.

   Well, Titan is bringing back the TEC (Thermo Electric Coolers) by combining the TEC with a heat-pipe cooler. Hopefully, this design will pull the heat away from the hot side of the TEC effectively before turning the whole TEC into a heater and frying the CPU. I will be using an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ 2.4Ghz AM2 Dual Core Processor, which should generate enough heat to thoroughly test the Titan Amanda.

Packaging:

Retail front	Right side
Left side	Carrying handle

    The box is one of the largest packages I have seen for a CPU cooler yet. On the top of the box there is a carrying handle. It feels like you are carrying an old-school lunch box. The front of the box has an oval cut out for a window. This opening only gives you a simple look at the top the cooler, and is really just there to tease you. The right side of the box has all the specifications on the cooler, one set for AMD and one for Intel. The left side of the box lists all the features of the Amanda cooler, while the back has a drawing of the entire cooler and lists some of its features as well.
