Titan Fenrir TTC-NK85TZ CPU Cooler Review

Today's review of the Fenrir cooler will test to see whether this is a good, great, or excellent cooler both aesthetically and through benchmarking on a Intel I7 965 Extreme Edition processor pushed to full load. The Fenrir cooler is a little more flashy than most of the competition, but at around US$50, is this more form than function, or will it pull through to be a cooler we at Tweaknews will recommend.

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 CPU Cooler Review

Arctic Cooling is one of the more well known manufacturers in the PC hardware industry, especially when it comes to smart cooling solutions. The company also manufactures power supplies and computer cases. The Swiss mark may be most known for the VGA coolers; ”Accelero Xtreme” and “Accelero Twin Turbo” which are available for more or less all the medium to high end graphics cards on the market. Today I will take a closer look at a CPU cooler from Arctic Cooling which has been given...

ZEROtherm Nirvana NV120 PWM CPU Cooler

When I hear the name ZEROtherm it immediately takes me back to seeing the images of the “butterfly cooler” all over the net. This copper and red CPU cooler was quite the step away from the “norm” of cooler manufacturing and has put ZEROtherm on the map. The BTF series of coolers were brought up as that cooler shows how the company took a basic idea and kept improving upon it until they had an effective all copper version with a 92mm fan, eventually replacing the 80mm they started...

Evercool Transformer 4 CPU Cooler

When I first took the Transformer 4 out of the box and saw that it had two 120mm fans that attached directly to the motherboard fan headers without any sort of fan control I had visions of plugging this cooler in and having the fans spin up to some crazy high RPM speed and making an awful amount of noise, however quite the opposite was true. . .

Evercool HPK-10025EA Low Profile CPU Cooler

We all know about the abundance of Core i7 compatible coolers in the performance market, but what about more mainstream coolers that can be used in various applications, including HTPC or SFF?  Lucky for you, we at RBMods have the very thing right on our test bench!  It's the Evercool HPK-10025EA.

Zalman CNPS10X Extreme CPU Cooler

The interesting thing about the second test is that the Zalman CNPS10X Extreme cooler didn't have any issues when we added a 140 watt processor, and shows a bigger margin of victory over the other coolers than it did in our Intel testing. The Thermaltake Big Typhoon 14 was pretty much the only cooler that really gave it too much competition (and the Big Typhoon 14 is a huge cooler itself). . . Read...

Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 Pro CPU Cooler

Few things are more important than keeping your computer well ventilated and cool. Overheating can lead to your computer turning off on you, sluggish work and worst of all, damaged hardware. One of the principal parts to keep cool is the CPU, using a high-quality CPU cooler that will throw away the heat your CPU generates. Today, I've got a great cooler up for review – Arctic Cooling's Alpine 64 Pro cooler. While the Alpine 64 Pro presents itself as a very straightforward looking extruded...

Thermaltake ISGC-400 CPU Cooler Review

The ISGC-400 is significantly smaller than the bigger version ISGC-300, but then do have some pretty similar characteristics. The ISGC-400 is designed to fit into smaller spaces that other tower coolers can't, and the design allows it to sit over top of memory (check out the installation section of this review for more pictures of that)...

Rosewill FORT 120 / RCX-SHDT120X1 CPU Cooler

Rosewill is a relatively fresh manufacturer to enter the computer component market. They encompass everything from cases, to power supply units, to fans and coolers. From what I have gathered, Rosewill is Newegg’s "house brand" with a goal to provide quality parts at a reasonable price. Above all, Rosewill’s main objective is to keep their customers happy. As a consumer myself, I am glad to see an upstart company striving to please the customer versus making the all mighty dollar...

Evercool Buffalo HPFI7-10025 Core i7 CPU Cooler Review

Evercool, of course submitted the Transformer 4, which I had found damaged and not really up to snuff as far as dual, 120mm fan powered coolers go. This time I have a stouter cooler from Evercool, which is powered with a single fan, which many of you have most likely seen at this point, just with a different mounting kit on it. I am talking about the Evercool Buffalo CPU cooler. Today Evercool sends the Buffalo HPFI7-10025. This is the same Buffalo, twin heatpipe, cooler that has been...
