Après le test du NH-U14S, passons à son petit frère en 120mm, le NH-U12S. Faible volume, ventilateur PWM avec une plage plus qu'intéressante, et toujours une garantie de six ans sont au rendez-vous. A 60€ l'exemplaire, que penser de ce nouveau Noctua ?

Thermaltake's SpinQ VT heatsink stands 162mm tall and is made from nickel plated aluminum fins soldered over six copper heatpipes, which are really three heatpipes doubled over into a U-shape. Each aluminum fin has a shape that resembles a chain sprocket from a bicycle, but each of the ~50 fins is sequentially rotated 6mm before being threaded over the copper heatpipes. This creates the eleven-sided shape that resembles a drill bit on steroids.

Brakes are to cars as coolers are to computers. They aren't the selling point of the product, but you sure miss them when they aren't working. When it comes to cooling solutions for computer components, there are always a number of features that they have in common. This includes copper metal for conductivity, fans for airflow, and aluminum fins to prevent it from weighing a ton. Of course, those are only the basics; it's the other features and variations that really determine the quality and effectiveness of the cooler. Arctic Cooling has provided the Accelero Extreme Plus II for us to review at APH Networks. Just like CPU coolers, the stock VGA coolers provided with most graphics cards are simply not acceptable for overclocking; in fact, it is barely acceptable for even normal usage sometimes. I'm sure everyone is familiar with the roaring fan of their graphics card while playing games. As I found with my own computer, the graphics card was by far the loudest component, and my computer case could not contain the sound of the infernal. The name Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME Plus II is far too long to say out loud. Why can it not just simply be called the ACAXP2? I guess the only one who can really answer that question is Arctic Cooling themselves. Of course, the reason you are here, is to see if this mouthful of cooling can really make graphics card feel like it is being served on ice. Read on below to find out more.

The Thor's Hammer is a CPU cooler from Xigmatek with a tower heatsink, seven heatpipes, and supports one or two 120 mm fans. Let's test it.

Corsair brings forth a plethora of new case cooling fans. Let's have a look at what they are offering.

With the release of AMD's socket FM1 Fusion A8-3850 processors late last year there's been a growing need for inexpensive yet relatively quiet CPU coolers of moderate power. The 'Llano' processor only has a 100W TDP and costs just over $120 bucks, so expensive tower heatpipe coolers can be a little bit of an overkill. Arctic Cooling's Alpine 64 Plus heatsink is one economical option to consider; it's rated for 100W and stands 70mm tall so it fits in most media PC cases with ease.

A pair of new notebook coolers arrived from Thermaltake. First we will have a look at the Massive 14 Squared, and see what it is all about.

Viele der aktuellen Grafikkarten haben, werden sie nach Referenz gefertigt, ein Problem: Der Kühlkörper! In der Regel ist dieser meist auch völlig ausreichend, doch geht es um die Lautstärke oder gar Overclocking, müssen meist Alternativen herangezogen werden. Hier haben sich viele Hersteller ihren ganz eigenen Kopf gemacht und alternative Lösungen entwickelt. Dazu zählt auch das britische Unternehmen Akasa. Neben CPU- und Chipsatzkühlern, bietet der Hersteller in seinem breit gefächerten Portfolio auch GPU-Kühler an. So muss dieses Mal Akasas neuste Wunderwaffe mit dem klangvollen Namen "Vortexx Neo-Cool Blue" ihr Können in unserem Test unter Beweis stellen. Es dürfte eine recht spannenden Temperatur-Rallye werden, orientieren sich die Briten mit dem Vortexx Neo-Cool Blue stark am Referenzdesign der vom Hersteller verbauten Kühllösungen.
