Introduction
After a somewhat lengthy hiatus of new product releases in the world of CPU cooling, Thermaltake has recently returned with a vengeance, launching several new products.  We’ll be taking a look at a few of them in the next while, but today we’ll be examining the BigTyp 14Pro, the successor to their venerated Big Typhoon cooler.   It has been about three years since the Big Typhoon hit the market and made quite a splash, but much can change in this industry in three years, so the Big Typhoon began a slow decline, succumbing to the pressures of newer models and market players.  It seems that Thermaltake decided to capitalize on the name and return to former glory, borrowing the “Typ” in shortform and adding the “14”, indicating the larger 14cm fan now being used here.

Our thanks go to our friends at Thermaltake for supplying us with the review sample.


“Since the beginning of Thermaltake in 1999, it has been at the forefront of creating new and exciting products at a time where most computer users were provided little to no choices for components that may seem irrelevant, but in reality crucial to the performance of a PC. With its comprehensive line of products available, it enables Thermaltake's core customers to enjoy a one-stop-shop experience, reduce product design-in evaluation period and most important of all, flawless integration process. Each of Thermaltake's strengths enables its customer to focus on their core business while taking advantage of the skills and efficiency of a single thermal management solution partner."

Thermaltake has a reputation for producing some innovative designs and products, so let’s see if the new BigTyp 14Pro can live up to its billing.
