Pros:

Looks great, Smaller footprint than many coolers, Sufficiently cooled the Intel i7 870, $30 price tag.
Retail package, Excellent retail price for its performance, Low noise levels, even at full speed, Fan supports the PWM function to further reduce noise, Works with both AMD/Intel platforms, Includes 2 thermal paste tubes
Universal cooler; supporting multi sockets, Decent performance, Comes with PWM fan, H.D.C technology, Simplest installation method, Midsize & light weight

Cons:

Probably not a good choice for 130 watt i7 processors
Doesn't include mounting mechanism for adding a second 100mm fan, Finding a second 100mm fan would be difficult

The Titan Skalli performed nearly as well as the Mega Shadow at OC load. Keeping the CPU at 74C isn’t what I would necessarily call great, but not bad at all for a small footprint cooler with a 100mm radiator. Keep in mind that the i7 870 is a 90...

To be honest when I first received the Skalli I wasn’t expecting much from it; as from what I could see, it was an average sized cooler, not particularly big, and only had two heatpipes. For example the Noctua tested against it today has 4...

The Skalli is a good cooler for those looking for silence over performance. That's not to say it doesn't deserve a nod for cooling. At it's price point, the Skalli put up very respectable numbers. Yes, you can buy this cooler and expect it...

Titan Skalli is a good cooler. Its performance was, by the error margin we adopted, practically the same of Evercool Buffalo and Cooler Master Hyper TX3, two coolers with very similar design.Its noise level is also good. Skalli is a very quiet cooler...

The Titan Skalli continues in the HDT technology tradition, a design that we've seen to be extremely effective for cooling efficiency when used in a tower-style setup, doing a respectable job at keeping a massively overclocked Core i7 under control....

The Skalli from Titan does an admirable job of keeping the i5 750 cool. While not as effective as the Noctua NH-U12, it is not equipped to perform at that level. With only a single fan it performs close to the level of the MUX-120 and outperforms the...
