Heat Spreader</h1> <p align="left">Provided by: <a href="http://www.thermaltake.com">Themaltake</a><br> Retail Est: $12.99<br> Review Date: October 18th, 2004<br> Written By: Daniel W.<br> <br> Our computers have become one big show and tell. With the advent of acrylic cases and case windows, visually what is on the inside has become just as important as what is on the outside. Moreover, what is on the inside does not sit there in hopes that we look; it reaches out and grabs our attention. How you ask? By lighting up, of course. Our case fans light up; the CPU cooler lights up; hell, even our cables (EL) light up. Now, your memory can light up as well with the Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/01.jpg"><img src="atruereview/memory_spreader/01th.jpg" alt="Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader" width="131" height="250" border="0"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p><strong>Packaging:</strong> <p>Thermaltake's TrueLight comes packaged in a snap shut blister package.

The back of the package features a specifications table. <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/02.jpg"><img src="atruereview/memory_spreader/02th.jpg" alt="Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader" width="132" height="250" border="0"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> <p align="left"><strong>Features:</strong> <p>Specifications for the Thermaltake's TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader, can be seen on Thermaltake's <a href="http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/memory/cl-c0001TrueLight/cl-c0001truelight.htm" target="blank">web site</a>. <ul> <li> Application for all standard SDRAM and DDR module</li> <li> Dissipate RAM heat for improved cooling performance </li> <li>Easy installation </li> <li>Up to 8 Different lighting modes, “COOL” your system</li> </ul> <p><strong>Specifications:</strong></p> <ul> <li> Heatsink Material: Aluminum</li> <li> Heatsink Dimensions: 133.8 x 26.8 x 2.7 mm</li> <li> Ram Mode Dimensions: 120.5 x 6.5 mm</li> <li> Operating Voltage: DC 5V</li> <li> Current: 0.12A (MAX.)</li> <li> Life Time: 60,000 Hours</li> <li> Special Functions: 1) Microprocessor control 5 LEDs at 8 different flashy modes 2) All LEDs would be turned off when pressing the switch more than 2 sec</li> </ul> <p><strong>Description:</strong></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/03.jpg"><img src="atruereview/memory_spreader/03th.jpg" alt="Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader" width="250" height="215" border="0"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p>The TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader is a black aluminum RAM sink that is equipped with 5 blue LEDs. The heatsink part of the TrueLight is a standard RAM heat spreader that is composed of two halves. At the top of the heat spreader is a row of blue LEDs which is covered by a long bare aluminum protector clip with a "Thermaltake" cutout.</p> <p align="center"> <a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/06.jpg"><img src="atruereview/memory_spreader/06th.jpg" alt="Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader" width="250" height="175" border="0"></a> <br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font></p> <p>Controlling the TrueLight's LEDs is an expansion slot mode switch. The mode switch features a red button.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/04.jpg"><img src="atruereview/memory_spreader/04th.jpg" alt="Thermaltake TrueLight Memory Heat Spreader" width="250" height="116" border="0"></a> <br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font></p> <p>One major thing to note about the TrueLight is that only one heat spreader is included per package.

Remove the memory from the motherboard. On each side of the memory, attach a strip of the included double sided memory sticker. Attach the heat spreader to each side of the memory making sure the row of LEDs is still in its place at the top. Once the two halves fully enclose the top of the memory, attach the two included clips. Then reattach the protector clip. Reinsert the memory back into the motherboard. Install the mode switch into an available expansion slot and plug its small plug into the TrueLight. Finally, plug an available Molex plug into the mode switch's Molex connector. </p> <p align="right"><a href="atruereview/memory_spreader/thermaltake.php"></a> <a href="memory_spreader/thermaltake.php">Next (Performance & Conclusion)</a></p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id="footer" class="clr"> <div class="rk-1"> <div class="rk-2"> <div id="the-footer">  </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
