Noctua NF-S12B FLX Cooling Fan Review | Posted on: 27/02/2010 @ 20:40
Generally I'm a big fan of international products. My favorite band is from Finland, my favorite television personality is from Scotland, and my favorite actor is from England. It seems that things made in the USA these days don't really last as long as they used to. Of course, if Toyota keeps things up the way they have been, no one will buy import again. But when it comes to air movement, ...

Prolimatech has now jumped further into the air cooling market, but this time into new territory: VGA cooling. Looking to build upon the success of their CPU heatsink, they\'ve launched the MK-13, an utter beast of a graphics card cooler that is entirely reminiscent of their Megahalems, sporting a ton of fins, heatpipe technology, and a massive size.

Spire TherMax II Cooler Review @ Tweaknews | Posted on: 24/02/2010 @ 9:17
Although the Spire TherMax II does set out on the right course and follows the basic tower cooler construction, there are some design problems that are hindering the performance when compared to other products on the market today. Now with that being said, this in no way is a bad cooler. In fact, is is a very good option to consider if you are replacing a stock Intel heatsink and for the price, ...

Innovation Cooling | Posted on: 23/02/2010 @ 14:37
What helps a good thermal compound to become a great product? In the younger days of computing one would have automatically have said ‘lower temperatures’ and that would be that. However the industry has matured, as such consumers are demanding more and more applications for their money. For example conductivity is a question; ergo will it conduct an electric current? Next is ...

The LMX Superleggera Cooler Review – New Cooling King? | Posted on: 23/02/2010 @ 11:17

It won’t be long until some of the bigger names start to find new ways to ...
Best CPU Cooler – AM3 Review | Posted on: 23/02/2010 @ 11:15
Overclocking the CPU increases the overall performance of our computers. Of course, there’s always a side effect of overclocking – increased heat output generated by the CPU. A good CPU cooler is becoming just as important as the CPU itself. When you think of CPU cooling on air, many will say it’s not all that great. This is why we have forms of cooling better than ...

Gelid Tranquillo CPU Cooler Review @ Tweaknews | Posted on: 17/02/2010 @ 6:49
Gelid has a worthy product in the Tranquillo, especially for a relatively new company. The Tranquillo easily bests the performance of the OEM cooler while being noticeably quieter, even at full speed. The design doesn\'t provide any board-cooling options though, but is relatively easy to install.

Coolink Corator DS CPU Cooler Review | Posted on: 11/02/2010 @ 11:23

Spire TherMax Pro CPU Cooler Review | Posted on: 08/02/2010 @ 17:51
In the last few years, there seems to have been a definite slow-down in the modification of CPU coolers. Companies are now seeming to follow a standard: aluminium fins, copper heat-pipes and a 120mm fan. And would you blame them? Well as the saying goes ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’, so probably not. Today, for review, we have a CPU cooler from a company named ...
