Der Dark Knight bleibt ein treuer Begleiter des Kühlerspezialisten Xigmatek. Hatte der Erfolgskühler bereits 2008 in anderer Version das Licht der Welt erblickt, führten verschiedene Variationen über Jahre hinweg den Erfolgskurs weiter fort. Ende des letzten Jahres fand sich die Night Hawk-Edition im Markt ein, nun folgt die Frostbourne Edition, welche komplett in Weiß gehalten ist. Wie erfolgreich sich der Dark Knight 2013 präsentieren kann, klärt unser Test.

In wind tunnels metal honeycomb panels are often used to smooth out the turbulent airflow and create laminar airflow. Coolage's X120TF heatsink borrows from this idea with a loosely shaped honeycomb fin stack. It will be interesting to see what impact this kind of fin geometry has on the relatively deep fins of the X120TF heatsink - will it help or hinder the cooling performance?

Dual fan towers have quickly become the aftermarket cooling standard for the PC. They are relatively compact, provide excellent surface area for cooling, and are limited only by the available room in your chassis and motherboard components. Of course performance is the key thing with aftermarket coolers and overall performance is a direct result of how well a company can combine everything together.

Mit dem Mugen 3 hat der japanische Hersteller Scythe einen CPU-Kühler der oberen Leistungsklasse in seinem Programm, welchen die PC Games Hardware in einer Sonderedition zum Leisetreter umgewandelt hat. Zwei Lüfter vom Typ Slip Stream SY1225SL12L lassen den Mugen 3 verstummen - doch wie sieht es mit der Kühlleistung aus?

Vor einigen Wochen hat der Kühlerhersteller EKL ein neues Produkt in der Alpenföhn Serie vorgestellt, den "Brocken" CPU Kühler. Diesen Kühler haben Hardwareoverclock auf einem Core i7 920 System ausgetestet.

Alpenföhn Peter "Wing Boost Edition 140mm"Grafikkarten haben schon lange den Prozessor als größte Hitzequelle im Computer abgelöst und stellen damit teilweise extreme Ansprüche an die Kühlung. Um trotzdem einen leisen Rechner zu realisieren hat sich neben den üblichen Verdächtigen wie Thermalright oder Arctic Cooling auch die in Deutschland sitzende EKL AG mit ihrem Schwesterunternehmen Alpenföhn dazu verschrieben für genau diese hitzigen Produkte leistungsstarke Kühler auf den Markt zu bringen. Als Nachfolger für den bereits sehr positiv getesteten, aber schon etwas alternden "Heidi" Kühler bringt nun Alpenföhn mit dem "Peter" einen mächtigen Kühler auf den Markt. In diesem Test wollen wir herausfinden, wie sich dieser im Praxisgebrauch schlägt und ob er unsere großen Erwartungen erfüllen kann.

When Thermaltake released their Frio a short while ago, much of the enthusiast market were somewhat surprised by the class-leading performance on offer. The single tower CPU cooler managed to show excellent cooling potential that put it ahead of a large proportion of the single tower cooling market and even some of the dual tower market. Since then though, there has been a lot of change. More high performance CPU coolers have been released from the likes of Phanteks with their PH-TC14PE, Corsair and Antec with their all-in-one liquid cooling units and even Thermaltake with their own upgrade to the original Frio, the Frio OCK. Today's sample, the Thermaltake Frio Advanced, definitely has some tough competition.
As the name suggests, Thermaltake have kept some of the cooler's fundamentals the same. Changes come in the form of 5 6mm copper heatpipes in a H.D.T. design, a slightly revamped aesthetic design and a different pair of fans. The 130mm fans that Thermaltake choose to use are capable of up to 2000 RPM and use the very convenient 4-pin PWM connection. 2 high powered fans coupled with a dense aluminium fin array should make for excellent heat dissipation potential. The benefits of the H.D.T. design base's heat transfer rate should become evident when used in conjunction with the aforementioned heat dissipation features. Let's hope that our hot Core i7 2600K doesn't saturate the claimed 230W heat extraction limit of those 5 copper heatpipes.
Thermaltake have designed their Frio Advanced to support all modern Intel and AMD sockets including the brand new LGA 2011. Priced at a very appealing £50/€50, the Thermaltake Frio Advanced could be a huge success in the budget conscious enthusiast market. So, without further ado, let's put the Frio Advanced through our barrage of demanding tests and see if it can handle our extreme 4.7GHz overclock test which only the best few coolers are able to complete.

For many years ARCTIC have been creating some of the finest cooling solutions. Today we are looking at their latest Accelero Xtreme III triple fan cooler which has support for Nvidia’s flagship GTX680 graphics card. We know this cooler will annihilate Nvidia’s reference cooler, but can it possibly outperform the stunning triple slot DirectCU II TOP cooler features on the overclocked Asus GTX680 TOP?
