Have you recently bought a white motherboard and a matching case to go with it? Are you now bemoaning the fact that your cooler just isn't matching rhe Storm Trooper vibe that you have going on in your case? Enermax has a solution, the ETS-T40F-W cooler, 610 grams of glowing white cooling standing 139x93x160mm (5.5×3.7×6.3"). The Thermal Conductive Coating does seem to work effectively, though the cooler is not among the best that [H]ard|OCP has reviewed. They also recommend running the fan at low speed as high speed does not increase the cooling as noticeably as it increases the fan noise. Then again, at $50 and being the only coloured cooler on the market does place it in an interesting niche market.
"Enermax comes to us with its new compact size model, the ETS-T40F-W CPU air cooler also referred to as the "Fit" series cooler. This model is decked out in its best Storm Trooper white garb which is actually what Enermax calls its "Thermal Conductive Coating." Do the Fit's dual 12cm fans have what it takes to make a good CPU air cooler?"

Is white the new black?
I’m still satisfied with black replacing beige.
Black will always
Black will always be/represent what it is, but I appreciate that certain appeal to white cases and builds. They are a break from the monotony but, as I have seen, is usually a temporary one. For whatever reason, it fades and the all-black or black-yellow/red combos return.
A friend’s experience with a Level 10 build turned me off from doing one. Dust, scuffs and stains are never kind to white components or cases.
