Nachdem wir kürzlich noch den neuen Samuel 17 Kompaktkühler von Prolimatech inspizieren durften, steht schon das nächste Produkt der Taiwanesen auf dem Redaktionsschreibtisch: der Super Mega CPU-Kühler. Zugegeben, die Namenswahl ist in jeder Hinsicht gewöhnungsbedürftig und DSDS Zuschauer werden sich möglicherweise vor Vergnügen auf die Schenkel klopfen. Aber abseits dieser Polemik geht es de facto um eine verbesserte Version des Megahalems Erfolgsmodell, nach dem Mega Shadow, dem Megahalems Rev.B und dem Armageddon also sozusagen der Megalems Mark IV. Augenscheinlich wurden einige der Lamellen-Außenbezirke durch Kupferexemplare ersetzt, darüber hinaus kann der Anwender auf zwei verschiedene Befestigungsschraubentypen zurückgreifen, um den Anpressdruck zu variieren.
A lot has been made of the high TDP’s of Intel’s i7 range of processors, only surpassed by the 140W TDP of AMD’s Phenom II X4 965 BE, requiring more cooling especially when at overclocked settings. In terms of air cooling, many of the smaller designs just can’t cope with the heat demands of the i7’s and so the larger heatsinks with more fins, surface area and heat pipes have been left to fight it out to see which cooler performs best.
ZEROtherm boasts this cooler can handle up to 200W of CPU load before it feels any ill effects. ZEROtherm did ship a fan along with my sample, and I was surprised to see they shipped a 43 CFM ZT-120F fan to cool the new entrant. I realize silence is a main concern for most, but a 40 CFM fan isn't typically capable of much real help in cooling a tower cooler. So, if in fact I can produce good results with said fan, it will prove that the cooler is indeed efficient.
We tested Cooler Master V10 CPU cooler, a monster with two fans, ten heatpipes and a TEC ("Peltier"
cooler. Let's check if it really "chills" the processor.
All Noctua products use their familiar Blue-Brown and beige color palette, keeping in line with their renowned fans. To go with its easily identifiable box is all the necessary information you need, such as sizing charts and package contents, but you can forget about that as you can be damn sure Noctua added all you needed and then some.
Companies are now becoming wise to the fact that revising an existing product is often an all together better choice than starting from scratch to try and create something intrinsically different.
SilverStone is much more than Cases. In this review we look at their new SilverStone
AR01 CPU Cooler. The CPU Cooler is equipped with three 8 mm heat pipes with thin
aluminium fins.
With the last CPU Cooler review here at XSReviews way back in October of last year, it was time for another. It comes in the form of the Scythe Mugen 2 which is a revision of the previous Mugen cooler and features Scythe’s new MAPS (Multiple Airflow Pass-through Structure) technology along with a Multi Fan Mount Structure. Read on to find out more…
Choosing a power supply gives endless choice with seemingly hundreds of units to choose from; with different watts, colours, sizes and styles. But, it all boils down to two things – stable rails and efficiency. With poor performance in these two areas, no matter how glamorous or how quiet the unit may be, it’s not really up to scratch. At XSReviews today, we have a 770W unit that comes from a very reputable company. Introducing the Zalman ZM770-XT Z-Machine Extreme PSU, let’s see if it can blow us away with its performance.
The DEEPCOOL ASSASSIN heatsink is designed for extreme overclockers that want the best thermal performance from an air-cooled heatsink. Just looking at the ASSASSIN you know it is going to be efficient, because this thing is a behemoth with dimensions of 5.5 x 5 x 6.2 inches
