Xigmatek LOKI II CPU Cooler Review
Peter Donnell / 9 years ago
Performance
Not the greatest performance I’ve ever seen, nor is it the worst, but it’s about where I expected it to be given the size of the cooler and its fan.
The Loki II passed the overclocking test, in the sense that our system didn’t shut down. However, I wouldn’t advise you run this cooler on a heavily overclocked rig like we just did.
Not especially noisy, but the fan is quite small so the fan noise is a little higher in terms of frequency than most. It’s audible on the test bench, but should prove much bother once installed into a chassis.
The fan was noticeable when overclocked, although the cooler isn’t really designed to be pushed this hard anyway. If you’re overclocking, use a bigger cooler.
