Noctua is always innovating with new product designs and they’ve just introduced a new tower style cooler, the NH-U12S which is what I have for review today. This cooler is a thin design, it’s only 45mm deep which makes it ideal for using with performance style ram that utilizes large style heatspreaders as it doesn’t protrude over the ram slots of the majority of motherboards made today. The cooler utilizes the Noctua NF-F12 which is a 120mm forced focus fan that’s made specifically for use with CPU coolers. The NH-U12S can use one fan or you can purchase an additional fan for even more cooling performance, with one or two fans the NH-U12S runs virtually silent like most all Noctua products. I’ve put the NH-U12S up against several other coolers for comparison, and it performs very well indeed, so read on to learn more…

All in all the Thermaltake Contac 29 CPU Cooler can hold its own and the proof is there. When a sub $40 cooler can keep a blistering 140w AMD Phenom II X4 965 overclocked to 3.6GHz with 1.4v under 60 degrees Celsius, you know you have value!

Today we are looking at the Corator DS from Coolink, a company perhaps not recognised by many enthusiast users. They are the retail arm of Rascom who are involved with Noctua, one of KitGuru’s favourite cooling companies. The heatsink we are reviewing is a dual tower design that utilises Gapless Direct Touch technology with four large 8mm heat pipes transfering heat to aluminum fins. Today we are going to compare it against the similarly priced Thermaltake Frio and the top of the line cooler from Noctua, the NH D14 ‘Austrian Sandwich’.

If i had to guess what most of your reading these lines right now use to keep the temperatures of your CPUs in check chances are that most of you are still using regular CPU air coolers and why not since they can provide excellent cooling efficiency without asking for much in return like custom watercooling kits and even some AIO models? Unfortunately as I’ve already mentioned numerous times in the past CPU air coolers have reached a level of performance which i really doubt they will ever be able to surpass (AIO solutions might) but in the long run they may not have to since miniaturization (smaller manufacturing process) tends to reduce power requirements and thus temperatures. With the same reasoning in mind Noctua recently announced several "compact" CPU air coolers but for people wanting something more without however having to worry about clearance issues they also released a "tweaked" version of their flagship NH-D15 model which they named the NH-D15S.

Technic3D hat die LEPA Casino, Vortex und 70D Lüfter 120mm, sowie 140mm im Test. Fünf Modelle aus den Serien werden dort auf dem Teststand ausführlich überprüft, darunter vier120mm Modelle und ein 140mm Modell. Ob LEPA mit seinen günstigen Modellen aus der Masse herausstechen kann? Das Ergebnis im folgenden Review.

The DeepCool Frostwin heatsink ships with two 120mm PWM fans that rotate at 1500-900RPM and move upwards of 55CFM each. According to Frostytech's real world sound measurements, the heatsink produces between 37-50dBA noise. DeepCool's Frostwin heatsink installs onto Intel socket LGA2011/1366/1155/1156/775 processors and the complete line up of AMD chips (socket AM2/AM3/FM1/FM2).

Gute Lüfter gibt es heutzutage wie Sand am Meer. Wo sich die bisherigen Modelle der Spitzenklasse bis jetzt nie viel schenkten in Sachen Lautstärke/Leistungs-Verhältnis, wirbt Noiseblocker nun mit Lüftern, die „die Luft leiser machen“. Das mag erst einmal komisch klingen, doch wenn man diese neuen Modelle einmal gesehen hat, merkt man, dass hier eine weltneue Technik vorliegen muss. Der angebliche Schlüssel zum Erfolg: Das spezielle, bionisch geformte Rotorblatt, welches das Ergebnis einer Forschung der BMWI (Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Technologie) darstellt. Ob sich die mehrjährige Entwicklungszeit gelohnt hat, erfahrt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten. Viel Spaß beim Lesen!

Xigmatek are a company renowned for their excellent cooling solutions especially their HDT CPU coolers. Today, at Verdis Reviews we have a three dual heatpipe HDT cooler that features Xigmatek’s patented anti-vibration mounts along with the popular tower-format layout. Whilst nor being aimed at high end cooling, this cooler should provide some pretty solid results. Introducing the Xigmatek Nepartak S983 HDT…

New for 2009, Kingwin has replaced the RVT-12025 with a newer, updated tower cooler dubbed the XT-1264. Both models retain their machined individual copper heatpipe base with aluminum fin configuration coupled with a 120mm fan. The new cooler design is a few millimeters shorter than the old RVT but nearly 2½cm thicker for increased fin surface area. Heatpipe count has been increased from three to four for better performance and heat dissipation. Support for Intel's socket 1366 is also added.

The stock cooler included with retail-packaged CPUs represents the manufacturer's best efforts to provide a cooler that will keep the processor within its temperature limits at stock clock speeds, all for the lowest cost. But if you want to overclock your system, you're going to need an aftermarket cooler. The ideal cooler would be inexpensive, quiet, easy to install, and keep your CPU icy cold under all loads and conditions. But of course, in the real world it's always a balancing act among these various parameters. CoolIT Systems' new ECO A.L.C. ECO-R120 CPU cooler aims to balance these requirements by offering an easy-to-install sealed liquid cooling system for your CPU. Using both stock and high-speed fans, Benchmark Reviews compares it to the top air coolers and the Corsair H50 liquid cooling system on an overclocked and overvolted Intel Core i7-920 processor.
