Ganz gleich, ob Netzteile, Gehäuse oder Kühler, Xigmatek hat sie alle und wir stellen heute davon den Aegir SD128264 CPU-Kühler vor. Der Hersteller beschreibt ihn auf seiner Webseite als High-End Kühler, der auf die D.L.H.D.T. - Double Layer with Heat-pipe Direct Touch Technik setzt.
D.L.H.D.T. bedeutet, daß nicht alle Heatpipes auf selber Höhe in der Bodenplatte zusammenlaufen, sondern es noch eine zweite Heatpipe-Schicht (2nd Layer) über der ersten gibt und die erste Heatpipe-Schicht im Betrieb direkten Kontakt zur CPU hat (Heat-pipe Direct Touch), statt nur über die Bodenplatte mit dem Prozessor verbunden zu sein. Funktioniert das mit dem Double-Layer aber neben DVD- und Blu-Ray-Rohlingen auch bei Kühlern? Hat der Aegir damit bei der Kühlleistung die Schnauze vorn oder hätte sich Xigmatek diesen Trick auch schenken können? Unser Test wird es klären und zudem zeigen, was der Kühler beim Übertakten leistet und wie er sich dabei anhört.
I was surprised that Corsair launched another complete liquid cooling model, the H60. The H50 being perfect for tiny spaces and moderate cooling demands. The H70 was able to cope with our overclocked Gulftown setup, crushing the H50's performance. It's beefier radiator and dual fan setup was a big step forward for higher cooling demands. Corsairs new H60 is the first new release of it's new partnership with the CoolIT company. Corsair continues to sell CoolIT's previous products to the end users. CoolIT themselves will only be shipping their products to system builders and integrators. CoolIT's products at the last years Cebit 2010 looked promising but had a few too many flaws to be really competitive with the Corsair/Asetek lineup of the H50 and H70. Time to open the box...
We tested a low-profile CPU cooler from Thermaltake, the SlimX3, which has an 80-mm fan and two heatpipes.
I once heard a very intriguing quote that went something like, "A wise old owl sat on an oak. The more he saw, the less he spoke. The less he spoke, the more he heard. Why aren't we like the wise old bird?" Let's pull up some of our good old high school English Language Arts skills, and answer the following question: What does an owl symbolize in this day and age? In fact, what does owls have anything to do with technology in the first place? Well, let's go over a little history lesson. In Greek culture, there is a little owl that represents the Greek goddess Athena. Unlike most gods and goddesses, she represents wisdom, science, and strategy; and goes by savvy considerations rather than brute force to endure quests and adventures. In society today, the accepted norm in which an owl symbolizes is intelligence and prudence with their distinct skills of observation in the dark. Are you catching on now? So, let me ask you again, what does owls have anything to do with technology? The first thing that comes to my mind is owls have nocturnal vision, and the word very much sounds like the company Noctua. From our brief history with Noctua, they are famous for noise optimized heatsinks and fans. As we have seen before from our reviews on products such as the Noctua NH-D14 and Noctua NH-U12P, both are heatsinks which are proven to be great competitors in the computer market. To add onto the list, what we have here today is Noctua's NH-C14 heatsink. So is this how Noctua pull it off? Is Noctua that wise old owl sitting in the oak? Keep your nocturnal eyes busy to find out!
Xigmatek's Gaia SD 1283 CPU cooler has it all covered. It's got outstanding cooling performance, a diminutive acoustic footprint, a distinctive look, an innovative direct touch design and a robust yet easily installed mounting solution.
I have always considered Thermaltake to be one of the premier manufacturers of cases and cooling products; even though I haven't always been a fan of all of their products. With the loud design of many products entering the market today, it seems that there has been a lack of balance between the design and the function, whereas the function doesn't say as much about the performance as the appearance does. Thermaltake thinks they can regain some of my confidence by enticing me, the enthusiast, with a CPU cooler that claims it can do the job and looks like it should be able to without the zany design elements some have chosen to opt for over functionality
Laptops and notebooks have become increasingly popular over the last few years as the designs and power have improved. However as the designs and aesthetics have recently improved, laptops on the whole have got thinner. Not only does this cause a problem for the manufacturer to fit everything in but it also causes problems for cooling, especially when we are demanding more and more power from every generation. This has always been a problem but is becoming more apparent as we are introducing dual, triple and quad cores into laptops. This may change in the long run with Sandy bridge and Fusion but this is not going to be instantly replacing all those laptops that some of us have grown up with. In fact, it's going to be quite a while before manufacturers switch over to these new generation motherboards and processors with regards to high-powered laptops at least.
Il fut un temps où Swiftech était plus connu pour ses radiateurs CPU que pour ses solutions watercooling. Après un arrêt complet de cette première gamme, la marque américaine a décidé de revenir en force, avec un modèle tour en 120mm visant les grosses performances, quitte à sacrifier un peu le silence. Un pari réussi ? ou pas...
Thermaltake's Jing heatsink, a dual fan tower style cooler that comes in a bright shade of nuclear green. The green is supposed evoke nature and 'Jing' supposedly means 'wind' in Mandarin. The heatsinks' twin 128mm fans spin at 800-1300RPM in a push-pull orientation and create a modest amount of noise according to our real world sound measurements.
Weighing a hefty 920 grams, the Thermaltake Jing stands 161mm tall and installs onto Intel socket 775/1155/1156/1366 and AMD socket AM2/AM3+ processors.
Mit dem Thermalright Shaman, dem Scythe Setsugen 2 und dem Alpenföhn Peter stellen wir drei Retail-Grafikkartenkühler vor, die auf Basis unterschiedlicher Konzepte punkten wollen. Welches der Produkte unterm Strich das beste Gesamtpaket abliefern kann und ob sich ein Wechsel des Grafikkartenkühlers überhaupt lohnt, zeigen wir im ComputerBase-Test.
