Today we take a look at our second cooler from Be Quiet! and while I was left impressed by a few features and performance found in the Dark Rock Pro 2, the massive size of the cooler left a bit to be desired in the board real estate department. This time around we are looking at a few less heat pipes, one less fan and a drastically different design in the Shadow Rock TopFlow. Will this different design match its sibling in performance and hopefully offer us a bit more space to stuff our components? We shall see.

Phanteks is a fairly new company that was founded in 2007 by engineers and a Dutch design team. They first came to fame with their PH-TC14PE cooler. Since then, they have diversified by developing a case, fans, and several other CPU coolers. Today, they have sent over the PH-TC12DX the little brother to the PH-TC14PE. This cooler is based on the tower design, with four heatpipes, dual 120mm fans and a universal mounting system. Read on to see how it performs!

Today we are back again with another multi-heatpipe CPU cooler, this time from one of the larger names in performance cooling. Gelid Solutions has been around since 2008 and have proven themselves to be manufactures of quality cooling products and accessories. Slated for the test bench is The Black Edition, a seven heatpipe air cooler that promises both quiet operation and high end performance. Will this cooler be able to stand up to our tests and impress or be relegated to the bottom self and forgotten? Let’s find out.

Although watercooling in general seems to be gaining ground thanks to the numerous custom watercooling kits and AIO solutions introduced/announced recently by quite a few manufacturers there's no denying that normal CPU Air Coolers still have much life left in them and to many people they are still the primary choice to keep their CPUs cool at a low cost. This is i guess the one thing that normal air coolers have that watercoolers don't so even if you just want to spend 20 bucks for a CPU Cooler chances are you will find at least one model in the market and it even might be a good one at that. However performance always comes at a cost and so the really powerful Air Coolers rival the AIO Liquid Coolers both in terms of cooling efficiency and price. Well the massive Frio Extreme by Thermaltake is one such CPU Air Cooler and we've been testing it for the past 3 days to see exactly how it fairs against the competition.

Noctua's low profile NH-L9i heatsink stands 36mm tall so it will fit into the smallest of small form factor chassis. The NH-L9i is designed to cool Intel socket LGA115x (1155/1156/1150) processors only, which is a departure from the one-size-fits-all approach we're used to from heatsink manufacturers. The Noctua NH-L9i heatsink weighs 420 grams and is built around a large, triangular copper base plate, two 6mm diameter copper heatpipes and aluminum fins. Every part of this heatsink has been nickel plated so all the joints are soldered to maintain low thermal joint resistance.

Dopo aver analizzato in anteprima Italiana il modello AXP-100, oggi siamo lieti di presentarvi la versione potenziata AXP-200 ! Il produttore è uno dei leader indiscussi del settore cooling per personal computer, Thermalright. Per molti questo nome è una garanzia e, memori delle passate analisi, non possiamo che confermare questo nella maniera più assoluta. Se l’AXP-100 sulla carta era uno dei migliori modelli nel settore mini-ITX, il dissipatore AXP-200 si preannuncia eccellente. E’ dotato di ben sei heatpipes e della classica lavorazione top di gamma del marchio americano. E’ un modello a singolo radiatore orizzontale, dalle dimensioni complessive molto ridotte, ma dalla qualità elevatissima. Oggi sarà analizzato, sotto il punto di vista termico e fonometrico, con due ventole: Thermalright TY-14013 e TY-141. Verrà testato con un processore da 130W di TDP, il che significa che se riesce a superare questo test, e come vedremo farà anche di più, sarà certamente un candidato eccelso, per CPU dal TDP molto più contenuto. Il nostro è un test estremo per questo dissipatore, ma confidiamo in Thermalright. Vi facciamo presente che le misurazioni dimensionali saranno più precise rispetto al passato, per via dell’adozione di un calibro molto preciso, e costoso. Buona lettura.

Oggi vi presentiamo la recensione di diversi nuovi prodotti Enermax: il dissipatore ETS-T40-W White Cluster, la ventola Cluster Advance e la ventola Everest Advance. Questi ultimi due modelli verranno testati a livello termico sul dissipatore. Il dissipatore fa parte della categoria a singola torre e presenta delle caratteristiche certamente interessanti rispetto a modelli della concorrenza, tra cui ovviamente la verniciatura interamente in bianco, una base HDT (Heatpipes Direct Touch, a contatto diretto) e la presenza di una ventola molto valida, a tre velocità. E‘ dedicato a tutti coloro che desiderano ottenere performance di buon livello, una poliedricità in esercizio (grazie alle sue ventole da 800-2200RPM), ponendo per ò un deciso occhio di riguardo all’estetica complessiva. Si caratterizza per un ingombro relativamente ridotto ed il prezzo di acquisto non è eccessivo. Buona lettura !

Raijintek are a new comer to the PC market and while we have known of their presence for a while it’s only in the last few months that they’ve been bringing products to market. The Ereboss CPU cooler is just one sample of their range and the company intends to launch chassis products also, one of which we even saw at this years Gamescom in Cologne.
Picking the right CPU cooler can be tricky, especially in the low and mid budget price ranges. Finding the right balance of cost vs the performance you want to achieve can be tricky and with so many options on the market from many big, established manufacturers it may be hard for Raijintek to find a place. The Ereboss is Raijinteks answer to the budget friendly end of the market, those looking to get solid performance without spending too much money.
With a price tag £31.99 the Ereboss is affordable and as you can see from the specifications below it packs plenty of support.
