Technic3D hat den Alpenföhn Triglav CPU-Kühler im Test. Der neue CPU-Kühler will mit drei 10mm großen Direct-Touch Heatpipes gegen die Konkurrenz antreten, obwohl sich vom Lamellendesign selbst gegenüber dem Matterhorn Kühler nur wenig geändert hat. Ob der Triglav damit punkten kann, steht im folgenden Review.

We have already seen the be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 stamp its authority on the high-end air cooler market. Now the company is aiming for another fight with its single tower Dark Rock 3 CPU cooler. Can a balance between cooling performance and noise make the Dark Rock 3 a worthy contender?

Zalman's CNPS10X Quiet heatsink is equipped with a 120mm fan that ranges in speed from 1400RPM to 700RPM, which in real world terms means that noise levels are moderate to whisper quiet. As a low noise heatsink the CNPS10X Quiet maintains good thermal levels on Frosty's AMD/Intel test platforms, and at full tilt it qualifies as a performance heatsink.

The Lich King was the master and lord of the Scourge, and he ruled over them telepathically from the Frozen Throne on top of Icecrown. Well, I guess until I killed him about a year ago, but that is beside the point. The Thermaltake Frio OCK, a strange name for a product, literally means Cold Over-clocker King (sic). So what does an undead lord have to do with CPU cooling? Absolutely nothing; however, I couldn't help but notice the similarities between the two of them. Anyone who has played Warcraft 3 or World of Warcraft would certainly know what gave me the idea of putting them together. The real question is whether or not the Lich King can keep my Core i7-2600K pleasantly chilled? With Thermaltake boasting a title of king, it leaves for some very high expectations. As I'm sure many of the readers know, practical overclocking is not just about speed. It is a balance between performance, heat dissipation, stability, and to some extent, sound. This means for an air cooler to be considered king, it would need to do exceptionally well in at least three of categories listed. Obviously, the Noctua NH-D14 CPU cooler, reviewed by my colleague Jonathan back in January 2010, comes to mind as the challenger to the Thermaltake Frio OCK. As it turns out, in Jonathan's other review, the "regular" Frio was only a few degrees warmer than the NH-D14. I'm curious to see if the "OCK version" can prove to the NH-D14 who is really the master of the undead when it comes to cooling, so read on to find out!

We tested Prolimatech Armageddon CPU cooler, which has a slim heatsink, six U-shaped heatpipes, and supports two 140-mm fans.

Technic3D hat den Titan kukri 120mm Lüfter im Test, der schon seinen Einsatz auf dem Hati CPU-Kühler hatte. Die PWM Version sorgt hierbei für deutlich mehr Performance. Ob er den Herstellerangaben gerecht wird, steht im folgenden Testbericht.

Technic3D hat den Scythe Susanoo CPU-Kühler im Test. Mit immerhin zwölf 6mm Heatpipes und vier 100mm Slip Stream Lüfter möchte man im High-End Segment ein Wörtchen mitreden. Ob der Susanoo mit seinen riesigen Abmessungen in diesem Bereich den Ton angeben kann, steht im folgenden Artikel.

Mit der „Dark-Rock“-Kühlerserie steigt Netzteilspezialist Be Quiet verheißungsvoll in den Kühlermarkt ein. Als Flaggschiff will der „Dark Rock Pro“ im imposanten Doppeltower-Design, mit Siebenfach-Heatpipe und leiser Dual-120-mm-Belüftung die etablierte Spitzenkonkurrenz ins Visier nehmen. ComputerBase testet den Bequiet-Boliden.

Die Geforce GTX 680 bildet aktuell die Single-GPU-Speerspitze auf dem Grafikkartenmarkt. Doch wie üblich bringen Nvidias Boardpartner eigene Kreationen, die mit einer selbstentwickelten Kühlung sowie einer werkseitigen Übertaktung daherkommen. Zotac beispielsweise, hat mit der GTX 680 AMP! ein solches, potentes Modell in petto. Doch auch eine Leistungsstufe darunter, bietet der Hersteller mit der GTX 670 AMP! eine schnelle Alternative für etwas weniger Geld an. Beide Modell durchleuchten wir in diesem Artikel.

Recently, we published a test where we tried to find out which position of a case fan is the best for CPU temperatures. Now, let's expand this experiment, comparing the temperatures of the computer "hot spots" under different case fan configurations. Check it out!
