| With the
Armageddon, Prolimatech
really shows a good cooler. In terms of cooling capacity the Armageddon has been able
to reach the center span of our comparison tables. In
this regard we have to say that the competition is very hard concerning
our test field. There are almost no cheap coolers in our comparison
table and therefore
the Armageddon has to compete with the absolute best in class. It's not
only the performance that is on a good level with this cooler, we also
like the build quality, which is excellent and the design that features
full nickel plating. |

| Installation |
|
+ |
- |
| The
installation process is easy and you can mount the cooler quickly.
Nevertheless we didn't want to install it without consulting the manual.
Unfortunately the cooler is only compatibel to recent Intel sockets. The
Armageddon cannot be mounted on any AMD motherboards. We would love to
see an AMD socket kit in the delivery. |

During our
tests we used two fans from Xigmatek, which feature a diameter of 140
millimeter. If you drive both fans at 7 Volt you can't hear them anymore
and at 12 Volt they can be described as audible. In the end
performance at higher rotation speed was better then a lower rotation speed,
when compared to the competition. We think this is because the fins are quite
densely packed.
Therefore a higher airflow is needed to reach good cooling results.

If you're looking for a well performing CPU cooler,
which is reasonably sized and features an excellent design then you'll make a good choice if you go for the
