On the heatsink test bench today is Xigmatek's Prime SD1484 heatsink which features a few notable changes to the standard, stock tower heatsink Xigmatek offers. For starters, the edges of the aluminum fins are squished slightly to form a blunt knife edge to reduce air flow resistance - Gigabyte tried this in 2006 with good results - Xigmatek have applied a 4mm chamfer to both edges of the fins.
This time we tested the Xigmatek Gaia CPU cooler. It has a tower heatsink, three 8 mm direct-touch heatpipes, and a 120 mm fan.
Up for grabs in week seven of Bigbruin.com's Pro Football Pick 'Em we have a NZXT Havik 140 CPU Cooler!
Prolimatech, founded in 2008 and based in Taiwan, is fairly new to the market but has already won praise for the high performance of their coolers. The Panther is a heatpipe tower cooler which has been proven to be a high performance and cost effective design. This is the CPU cooler I’ll be testing today.
Cooler Master have been in the market since 1992 and have produced many CPU air coolers along with lots of other computer related products. The heatpipe tower design has been proven to provide a cost effective and high performing style of air cooler and that’s what I’m going to be looking at today.
The Hyper 212 EVO is a CPU cooler with tower heatsink, four U-shaped direct-touch heatpipes and a 120 mm fan. It is obvious by the name that this cooler is an evolution of the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus, which we tested last year. The main difference is the base of the coolers, as we will discuss later in this review.
Alpenföhn respektive EKL rüstet für die nächste alpine Expedition, diesmal gehts auf den bekanntermaßen zweihöchsten Gipfel unseres Planeten: den K2 alias Lambha Pahar. Ob sich Alpenföhn noch eine weitere Gipfel-Option offen halten möchte, vermögen wir nicht zu beurteilen, aber so wahnsinnig viel höhere Varianten existieren ja nicht, zumindest nicht oberhalb des Meerespiegels. Wie dem auch sei, K2 heißt auch das neue Kühler Flaggschiff vom EKL-Brand Alpenföhn und damit möchte man die bisherigen Doppeltower Konkurrenz gehörig aufmischen, sofern möglich.
Akasa Thermal Solutions are a well known cooling brand who strive to design competitive products which leave the consumer with a happy wallet. Value for money has long been the basis behind which their main products have been designed, with this aim proving to be successful enough to allow them to vastly expand their product catalogue. Akasa’s most recent success in the CPU cooling market was via the extremely competitive and highly regarded Akasa Venom. Today we will be taking a look at the Venom’s successor; the Akasa Venom Voodoo.
In this review Frostytech will be testing a promising looking heatsink from Thermaltake called the FrioOCK. However you pronounce the name, the Thermaltake FrioOCK is a 162mm tall variation on the familiar tower heatsink with a lot of potential. The cooler weighs over a kilogram (1093grams) and comes with two 130mm fans arranged in a push-pull configuration that scale from 2100-to-1200RPM.
