Raijintek Pallas Low Profile CPU Cooler Review

A Closer Look
The cooler is beautifully finished, nice and shiny too so it should look great in virtually any system build. Along the left side you’ll find 6 heat pipes the run straight down the length of the cooling tower.
The fins are quite thick and tough, and there are plenty of them too so this thing should be capable of handling quite a bit of heat.
there are lots of little bumps and ridges to the blades that should help with airflow, but you’ll also notice that the fins don’t run the full width of the cooler, they’re actually half length and over lap a little in the middle, likely to help spread out the head load from the six heat pipes so the centre doesn’t get too hot.
The CPU block is sat fairly close behind the radiator, and you’ll notice there is a large block that’s used to clamp the heatpipes in place.
The radiator is thicker where the pipes join to the base, every extra bit of surface area will only help improve cooling performance.
The fan clips into place with the two included side clips, and as you can see it’s slim enough to keep the coolers low profile in check.
Aside from being practical, the fan also looks gorgeous and adds some great flair to the overall design thanks to its rich red and pure white colour scheme.
