Titan Hati Cooler Review (TTC-NC15TZ/KU(RB))

We are using an AMD 990FX ASUS motherboard for installation today. The Hati is supplied with a backplate for improved clamping pressure.

Four threaded screws are fed in to hold the backplate in position, a simple procedure.

A mounting clip is used over the cooler base which then attaches to the motherboard. This can only be fed in from one axis.

As can be seen above, the clips then connect to the screws underneath, although we ran into one issue during fitting.

With the heatsink mounted in this position, the two closest memory slots are covered by the fins above.

To avoid the ram slots would mean rotating the heatsink 90 degrees. In theory easy enough, however when rotated the mounting clip won't line up with the screws (see image above). We flagged this problem with Titan and they said there is already a new clip for the cooler.

Connecting the fan(s) is straightforward. Titan have supplied 8 rubber clips which hold the fan(s) in place. The added benefit of these rubber clips is that the fans are isolated from the fins, keeping noise emissions to a minimum.

Above, the cooler installed. The Crucial Ballistix DDR3 memory had no fitting issues when used with this cooler. However once fitted, it can still be awkward getting memory out of the motherboard as the cooler fins overhang the first two slots.

  1. price is good and built quality looks equally as impressive. ideal for most people.

  2. Nice polished finish on the base. better than some of the bigger players ive seen.

    Its a pretty standard and slightly boring design however. but price is good and it will certainly suit a big audience of system builders who want something much better than a reference cooler

  3. Good deal. think id pay extra for the frio however, it has t wo fans. even if they are crap

  4. Seems like a good buy to me, but id spend another 10 for the Antec 620

  5. Yeah, fair review, quite like the appearance, but im more interested in all in water liquid coolers now. they are so compact, quiet and high performing.

    I also want to see a review of the upcoming d14 beater from noctua
