Evercool Venti (HPQ 12025) CPU Cooler Review
Ryan Martin / 12 years ago
At stock CPU settings we see the Evercool Venti coming in right behind the Respire T40 which is a very pleasing result. They are both physically identical, but in terms of price and acoustics, the Evercool Venti is leaps and bounds ahead.
As you can see at stock speeds the acoustic performance is excellent. It isn’t quite as quiet as offerings from Thermalright and Be Quiet! but it is pretty darn close.
When we introduce some overclocking it is clear that Evercool Venti’s heatpipes are incredibly efficient. It very much resembles the Cooler Master Hyper 412 Slim in both design and performance. I reckon if you added an extra fan to the Venti it could easily move to a 42 delta making it perhaps the best bang for buck dual fan CPU cooler we have ever tested. As it stands the Evercool Venti is still a fantastic single fan offering, I cannot emphasise how impressed I am with the performance of this product if you consider the NZXT Respire T20 is the product it is priced closest to.
As you might of expected it wasn’t able to maintain the stock levels of acoustic performance when we introduced overclocking. However, looking at the results the Evercool Venti still put in a excellent display considering its price and performance.
