I'll start it off. I love the ceramic coating on the Xigmatek Dark Knight II Night Hawk.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E Extreme

The Silver Arrow Extreme has one of the better looking heat pipes. I mean, really, they put effort into making the pipes look nice. All rounded off and stuff.  :wub:

It's a shame that it's hard to buy it in the States.

Extreme is only relative. I mean it's technically an air cooler right?

Damn that is one big ass fanless cooler.
