KitGuru staff often get asked which cooler makes the best partner for their overclocked system. My personal choices normally shift between the Thermaltake Frio and the Noctua NH D14, depending on the budget. Recently we have received many emails asking if we could give the Cooler Master V8 the ‘KitGuru treatment’.

Recently we’ve been taking a look at some pretty high end CPU coolers which, despite the different fin configurations and heatpipe layouts, are all reasonably similar. The Cooler Master V8, which we are to take a look at in this review, is a litter different in that although it is based on a tower format design it has added heatsinks on both sides and a centrally mounted fan.

Fragt man einen Autofan, was er von "V8" hält wird man wohl seine Augen aufblitzen sehen. V8-Motoren wurden unter anderem in den Muscle-Cars der 60iger Jahre wie dem Ford Mustang verbaut und stehen noch heute für pure Kraft und Fahrspaß. Cooler Master greift dieses Namensschema auf und bietet den Cooler Master V8 CPU-Kühler an, welcher eine besonders starke Kühlleistung bieten soll. Wie der Kühler gegen die namentlich unterlegene Konkurrenz abschneidet, erfahrt ihr im folgenden Test.

Cooler Master are a brand that never fail to impress us here at eTeknix. They continue to release top quality products and expand into new markets which is exactly what fans and reviewers alike all enjoy seeing. Today sees us looking at a product from one of their more popular product categories, a CPU cooler. There is plenty of choice when it comes to choosing a Cooler Master CPU cooler and even more when we look at the complete market for processor coolers.

Looking for a CPU cooler that both looks great and still outperforms the competition? Cooler Master released the V6GT CPU cooler today and it uses a new Double-V heatpipe design, twin 120mm DynaLoop PWM fans and 55 densely stacked fins asymmetrically with a five degree tilt to bring you the best cooling possible. Join us as we look the CM V6GT over and put it up against some of the best performing coolers out on the market today.

Ob Gehäuse, Netzteil, Kühler oder auch Peripherie, Cooler Master geht immer wieder gerne neue Wege und probiert auch beim Design Dinge aus, die anderen Herstellern zu heikel sind. Mit der V-Serie, welche im Jahr 2008 der Öffentlichkeit verfügbar gemacht wurde, vermarktete Cooler Master zwei auffällige und potente Kühler unter einem kraftvoll klingenden Namen. Mit dem V6 und dem V6GT wird die Serie nun erneut erweitert. Anhand des genutzten Namensschemas erkennt man schon, dass der V6GT sechs Heatpipes nutzt um die Abwärme abzuführen. Welche Details aber noch in ihm stecken, die man nicht am Namen ableiten kann, erfahrt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten.

Heatsinks are a normal part of any modern computer and are designed to keep your components cool enough to run. Given these devices are utilitarian in nature there is rarely consider what they should look like. Some are massive towers of heatpipe and radiator while others might be a simple chunk of metal with fins extruded from the surface. The key point to take away from this is that heatsinks rarely look, good.

Neben den zwei großen Steckenpferden wie Netzteilen und Gehäusen, hat Cooler Master auch CPU-Kühler in seinem Sortiment, darunter der hier getestete V6 GT im fetzigen Design eines Motors. Äußerlich hat Cooler Masters Kühler sowohl design- als auch größentechnisch einiges zu bieten. Gleich sechs Heatpipes und zwei 120mm große Lüfter sollen für die nötige Coolness aktueller CPUs sorgen und das natürlich auch im übertakteten Zustand.

In between the point A to point B, utilitarian vehicles, there are a few that offer both sound economics, but can surprise your buddies at a stop light, or more responsibly, on the track on the weekends. These cars are not only cheaper to get a hold of, but in some cases are actually designed and engineered to keep up with their more expensive competition. So again, what do fast, high performance cars have to do with CPU coolers?
Aircooling
As with the original V6, the Cooler Master V6 GT is a big, good looking cooler with a robust, easily installed mounting solution. The GT has much better cooling performance thanks to an additional fan and a very nice lighting feature that adds some visual interest to the package.
