Final Thoughts


Price

For just £26.99 from Overclockers UK the Ereboss is competitively priced and will go head to head with many already popular products from brands like Cooler Master and Enermax. It’s also one of the best looking coolers in this price range.

Overview

I’m really happy with the performance seen here today, while it was nothing ground breaking any way it is certainly competitive in terms of cooling performance for this price range. Idle temps are a little higher than some other coolers, but given the fan is inaudible at low RPM and high RPM it seems like a great tradeoff.

Overclocked performance was impressive for a cooler of this size and while it did get pretty hot it was well in line with what we expected. 4.5Ghz on our i5 is no easy task for a cooler and the Ereboss had the lowest idle temperatures in this test, and essentially matched an Antec water cooler at load. Although I think I would aim for a lower overclock over long periods of time for a cooler of this size.

Silence is golden and the low noise of the slim fan will certainly keep the peace. We couldn’t hear it from a couple of feet away with an open top test rig, so inside a chassis will be even quieter. The slim fan does a fantastic job too, but the combination of heat pipe configuration, fin design and the sleek fan all add up to an impressive end result that performs really well and looks great too.

The fan does sit on top of the ram but can be mounted on either side of the radiator. This also means you can install two fans if you want to boost cooling performance. However keep in mind that ram with tall heat-sinks and the fan on the right of the block could cause conflicts (hardly an uncommon issue with tower coolers).

Pros

  • Great design
  • Competitive price
  • Solid performance at stock and overclocked settings
  • Virtually silent

Cons

  • None

“The Ereboss is a great start for Raijintek and if this is just a taste of what they have to offer then we look forward to testing more in the future. The price is cheap, the design looks great and the performance is competitive, definitely a bang for buck worthy product.”
