With computer peripheral manufacturers realizing that they can’t stick to a few niche products and be relevant in the marketplace companies have branched out from their initial roots and are offering a dizzying array of impressive gear. Corsair’s A50 and A70 heatsinks look just like the competition’s coolers sporting the same heatipe and fin tower [...]

Balancing the need for good cooling performance and having a low-cost option means making some sacrifices which may cause the heatsink design to miss both marks. Thankfully the Corsair A50 managed to choose correctly. Sporting a direct heatpipe contact design means it’ll be efficient in pulling heat off of the CPU but there are only [...]

In order to cool off today’s insanely hot running processors, especially if you’re seeking to get some more speed out of it, you have two choices: a liquid cooling rig or a massive amount of aluminum and heatpipes coated in nickel for that extra shiny look. Enter the ProlimaTech Super Mega Heatsink which sticks to [...]

While your system’s heatsink was quite a capable performer during the winter months the summer poses a whole different set of cooling challenges which most designs aren’t capable of handling. The Cooler Master V6GT sandwiches 6 heatpipes and a whole heck of a lot of fins between two high-powered fans in order to get the [...]

Once you’ve put together your brand new rig the last thing you want to run into is a peripheral not quite fitting into your case once it’s all said and done, especially when it’s that all important CPU heatsink. The Noctua NH-U9B SE2 makes some airflow concessions by going with a 92mm fan but that [...]

Cooling a high end processor is no easy feat especially given the amount of added stress most overclockers put on their CPUs with their higher clock rates and a good dosage of extra voltage. The Scythe Yasya CPU Heatsink makes use of six heatpipes and can mount two fans to quickly dissipate the heat load [...]

CPU coolers tend to require quite a bit of airflow in order to work effectively which is a bit of a downer for anyone that enjoys a silent workspace or even a bit of sanity once those high speed fans kick into gear. Big Bruin has gathered six LGA1156 compatible heatsinks which seemingly promise low-noise [...]

While a great big tower heatsink would appear to be the best choice for your next system build they tend to overlook airflow to some of the important components on your motherboard like its chipset and voltage regulation modules. The Tuniq Propeller 120 CPU Cooler takes some of the old fashioned design ideas and works [...]

As far as air cooling is concerned the more heatpipes you have on a heatsink the better it can dump heat onto its mass of fins, normally one wouldn’t expect much out of a cooler with three heatpipes. Zaward Vapor 120 CPU Cooler seems to perform like a champ despite its low heatpipe count, although [...]
Most budget level heatsinks skimp on the features in order to get their price point in at where they need it to be. While they’re a great alternative to the stock heatsinks included with most processors they can’t exactly touch the performance of high-end coolers either. The Xtreme Gear HP-1216B CPU Cooler tosses in five [...]

Tower CPU coolers tend to offer very good performance but when it comes time to cram them into the slimmer dimensions of a HTPC case or other small enclosure makes them an impossibility some times. The Cooler Master Vortex Plus CPU Cooler brings back the old style cooling design while incorporating some newer techniques such [...]
