A Closer Look
The fan on this is red and white which is what Raijintek have been using for all of their other coolers, i’m not much for coloured fans with coolers, I think that they alienate the audience somewhat. People who are making a black and red build won’t want to have a red and white fan, so they either have to buy a different 90mm fan or a different cooler. I prefer the fans to be black, or have a range of colours to choose from. The fan does look rather good though if you were doing a red and white build, or don’t really care what colour it is. Its 90mm and has the Raijintek logo in the center. At just 15mm tall, it keeps the cooler very low profile.
This cooler is also very low profile, it’s kind of endearing how small it is, it looks great, without the fan you can see all fins and the 3 heat pipes that will help this cooler take the heat away from the CPU
If we turn the cooler over we can see that the 3 heat pipes directly make contact with the CPU, this means that the heat from the CPU will be dissipated as quickly as possible. You can also see the 4 pins that are there for mounting with Intel motherboards.
So it is very silent CPU cooler with very poor performance?
This thing is a piece of garbage, do not buy! The horrible design leads to having to use far more thermal compound than necessary. The stock cooler performs better, even if it is louder.
