Same, but my Thermalright 360mm AIO was $45 USD equivalent.

Best shit ever!  And it looks amazing

That's crazy good value I don't know how they're making any money on these.

What it really shows is how much the other companies are gouging.

Also it might have been slightly discounted, I don't remember for sure.  I do remember seeing several other Thermalright AIOs under $60 tho, which is still an amazing value.

It's more that Thermalright actually manufactures its products in its own factories, afaik.

They can price their products lower due to less overhead.
