Some people like quiet computing, others like the wind tunnel experience. Personally, I fall somewhere in the middle. The winding hum of fans whisking air through my rig is calming for me; much like vacuums to a baby. However, I am not the norm, oddly. Many of today's users seem to look towards a peaceful experience in front of the keyboard instead of the days when we thought having a computer that sounded like a hovercraft was cool. A few companies have made a name for themselves by offering peripherals and devices that marry performance with peace and quiet. Nexus thinks they have the proper balance with their new FLC-3000 (R2).
Nvidia's Fermi core runs hot, and stock coolers are fine if you can get used to their loud and whiny operation. But if you really want performance and silence, you need to upgrade to an aftermarket cooler. The Zalman VF3000F (GTX470/465) VGA cooler is an excellent choice. Our testing showed that you can have both performance and nearly silent operation in the same package.
In this review we will be looking at the new Cooler Master NotePal A200 Laptop Cooling Pad. Much like a case fan a cooling pad works by promoting good circulation and proper laptop freshness.
Arctic Freezer Xtreme Rev 2 Heatsink Review In this review we looked at a new cooler from Arctic called the Freezer Xtreme Rev2. The cooler appears to be designed to provide a good cooling base over a stock cooler and yet remain relatively silent under full load operation. This saves on fan noise, and to a lesser degree power.
Sommer 2011 ist die neue Cooler Master Hyper Kühler Serie ins Leben gerufen worden, die mittlerweile mehrere unterschiedliche Modelle beinhaltet und eine neue Produkt-Ära bei dem bekannten Hersteller eingeläutet hat. Aus dieser neuen Serie haben wir euch schon zwei Modelle vorgestellt, den Hyper 612S und 212 EVO. Heute sehen wir uns den 412S an.
As many of you have noticed things are somewhat slow lately in everything related to PC cooling but considering most solutions we do get to see are very similar in design, size and performance this is not really surprising (nor bad really). On top of that add that we have entered the winter season and i doubt we will see anything really interesting at least for another couple of months or so (although CES is just around the corner so we may see something new announced there). Regardless of that however from time to time we do get to witness the release of unique (or dedicated as I like to call them) CPU Coolers aimed specifically at one of the various market segments (enthusiasts, overclockers, casual users, gamers, HTPC users) just like the latest NH-L9 L-Type low-profile cooler line by Noctua which is clearly aimed for HTPC use.
Today we are going to look at the latest addition to the Noctua range, the NH-L12, which is a low profile CPU cooler designed for use in an HTPC or small form factor PC. It features two PWM controlled fans, one of which can be removed so the cooler can be used in the most space restricted environments.
The Phanteks PH-TC90LS is a low-profile CPU cooler that is 1.77 inches (45 mm) tall and uses a 92 mm PWM fan. Let's test it!
We tested the CNPS9900 MAX from Zalman, a rounded-shaped CPU cooler with three heatpipes and a 135 mm fan. Check it out!
The Frio has been a runaway success for Thermaltake, combining killer performance at a very competitive price point. Today we are looking at the revised and ‘improved’ version, the ‘OCK’, which according to Thermaltake can significantly outperform the class leading Noctua NH D14.
