Raijintek Pallas Low Profile CPU Cooler Review

Performance


Unsurprisingly the Pallas does run warmer than the other coolers we’ve tested, it looks a little unfair on the charts but since I took over our cooling reviews it’s actually the first low profile product I’ve tested. This isn’t terrible performance and it’s well within the green in terms of operating temperatures for out i5 3570k. Interestingly though, the idle temperature is lower than the previous Raijintek cooler we reviewed, the Ereboss.

The benefits of the large low profile fan soon show their worth in our noise tests, ranking the Pallas as one of the quietest CPU coolers we’ve ever tested, making it a very good solution for those who want a HTPC build that is as quiet as possible.

The Pallas handled the extra heat of an overclocked CPU better than I expected, even beating out the Raijintek Ereboss by a good margin in both idle and load tests, this is really impressive.

What is even better that good cooling performance? It’s still one of the quietest CPU coolers we’ve ever tested, even while it’s under heavy load on an overclocked CPU.
