Never buy something because it's labeled to be a "Gaming" version or a "Insert Game here" version. It's just fish oil from companies trying to get more money out of gamers because they don't know any better, but as Shadow said, tri-x is just the name of the cooler.

cause of what i hear, the sound and how hot it can get is crazy

Please don't listen to the recycled garbage that comes out of some peoples mouths.

Yes, the reference cooled 290 and X we're hot and loud, all of the third party cooling solutions have rectified that.
