Today we are looking the newest addition to the Zalman CNPS line up, the CNPS11X. The new CNPS11X is not your typical tower cooler. With a unique color and shape, Zalman has once again added a new spin to high performance air cooling. Join us as we see how Zalman's newest twist on the traditional tower cooler fares on our Intel Core i7 test bench.
Zalman really has it going on with the new 11X Extreme. The five composite heatpipes and the innovative design allow its fan to provide some excellent cooling with very reasonable acoustics. Really, the only complaint I have about the 11X is the mounting solutions. While the cooler is very secure with this mounting scheme, I miss the ease with which most previous Zalman coolers could be installed, even inside the case.
Today we take a look at the newest cooler in the Zalman CNPS10x line up, the CPNS10X Performa. With five heatpipes and a high capacity 120mm fan it will be interesting to see how this cooler erforms on our Intel Core i7 test bench. Read on to see how it stacks up against its own predecessor the CNPS10X Extreme and more than a dozen other Intel Socket LGA 1366 processors!
Continuing our CPU cooler review series, today we tested Noctua NH-U12P, which uses the now standard tower design with four U-shaped heatpipes and a 120 mm fan. Will its performance be compatible to its price? Let's see!
An amalgamation of both old and new is present in Noctua’s latest offering to the processor cooling sector. Building on previous successes, namely the NH-U12P, the NH-D14 is characterised by two fin stacks and a dual-fan cooling configuration.
The new, seen with the inclusion of the of Noctua's largest fan to date: the 140mm NF-P14 FLX construction slotted between the independent fin stacks is combined with elements from past coolers by the thermal solutions manufacturer. The heatsink bares similarities to the NH-U12P in terms of the fin spacing and heatpipe layout whilst the push-pull fan design can be attributed to the SE1366 version of the same cooler.
Evercool has a vast array of thermal solutions incorporating both air and water methods for numerous different components. Their CPU cooling solutions especially include a variety of different fin and heatpipe architectures compatible with most current sockets. The Evercool Buffalo, from the LGA775 range, is a newer design that utilises a copper base, a 10cm pre-installed fan and an easy installation method. As a more mainstream cooler compared to the HPK-10025EA, some decent cooling is expected too so let’s see what it can offer
While the basic concept and design of this cooler is based heavily on the already famous D-14, there are no ties between it and what we are about to look at from Phanteks. Phanteks actually looked beyond the limits that Noctua set with the D-14 and into every possible way to improve on the basic concept.
Außergewöhnliche Designs bei Kühlern sind keine Seltenheit. Wirklich selten sind jedoch die Versuche von Herstellern, mit purer Größe starke Kühlleistungen zu erzielen. Der Vorreiter dieser Kühlmonster dürfte der Scythe Orochi sein, welcher sich gerade für den passiven oder semi-passiven Betrieb sehr gut eignete. Einen ähnlichen Kühler hat nun silentmaxx mit dem BigBlock auf den Markt gebracht. So haben die Spezialisten für leise und lautlose Systeme dem Kühler zehn Heatpipes und eine Kühlfläche von 5850 Quadratzentimetern spendiert, dadurch soll sich der BigBlock besonders gut für den leisen und lautlosen Betrieb eignen. Für alle, die dann doch etwas Belüftung am Kühler benötigen legt silentmaxx noch einen leisen 120-mm-Lüfter bei. Wie sich der silentmaxx BigBlock auf unserem Testsystem schlägt, zeigen wir euch auf den folgenden Seiten.
While most of the industry is attending Computex just half around the world away the surprisingly high temperatures where i live (31+ degrees Celsius) keep reminding me of just how good winter really is (snow addict). Because of that and also because lately we've been receiving quite a large number of CPU Coolers (some of which are also showcased in Computex right now) i decided to spend the better part of this week testing all of them one after the other (time is quite important). The first of those CPU Coolers to get mounted on our test bench is no other than the latest Dark Knight SD-1283 Night Hawk Edition by XIGMATEK.
Wir haben einen neuen Artikel online, in dem wir 5 neue Kühler für die AMD-Plattform mit unseren bisher getesteten ca. 2 dutzend Modellen verglichen haben.
