    This water cooler is certainly impressive in stature, but its size is more than matched by the build quality.

    Are you a serial CPU swapper? Do you want custom cooling configuration software? This water cooler might just meet your needs.

    Some of the design elements are pretty clunky, but when configured in silent mode, this is a very impressive cooling kit.

    This diminutive chip-chiller is impressive. If you can't stretch to liquid-cooling, this is the way to go for compact chassis.

    After all the huge tower fans we've looked at recently, it makes a refreshing change to be playing with something at the other end of the spectrum.

    An impressive return to the water-cooling market by Cooler Master with a very capable budget liquid CPU chiller.

    Reeven Kelveros RC-1202 review

    Reeven Kelveros RC-1202 review

    6 Last reviewed

    We haven't come across a Reveen cooler before, but that's hardly surprising as it's a pretty new company on the scene. The current flagship of its tower designs is this Kelveros RC-1202.

    Yep, you've read the name right, Sapphire has plunged into the murky world of third party processor chilling with its Vapor-X CPU cooler.

    Thermalright Macho Rev.A review

    Thermalright Macho Rev.A review

    Despite its chunky fan, this is not a high-performance chip cooler in the traditional sense. It's designed to keep your CPU cool, while producing very little noise.

    Cooler Master Blizzard T2 review

    Cooler Master Blizzard T2 review

    Strapped for cash but still on the lookout for a well-built, third-party tower CPU cooler, that does a decent, quiet cooling job?

    This is a serious bit of kit. Let's start with some of the highlights. Six copper heat pipes draw thermals from a polished copper cooling block and feed to two massive aluminium fin stacks.

    Thermolab Trinity review

    Thermolab Trinity review

    The ThermoLab Trinity looks like a pretty conventional cooler at first glance. A big fan, a large stack of aluminium cooling fins and some copper heat pipes. Same old.

    Fans 120mm and larger dominate the enthusiast and overclocking market. What hope, then, for the plucky little Scythe Katana 4 and its 92mm fan?

    Keeps temps and noise under control, but the competition is smaller, more effective and cheaper. Game over

    NoFan CR-95C review

    Silent, dustless cooling is an attractive idea,but this monster from Nofan proves high temps are unavoidable for totally passive coolers.

    Deepcool Ice Matrix 400 review

    How much does fancy packaging matter? Ultimately, it can't be that critical, otherwise the Deepcool Ice Matrix 400 would have this thing completely wrapped up.

    Arctic Cooling has taken the bull by the horns and released a DIY liquid cooling kit, but this time not for a CPU - instead it's for keeping a graphics card cool.

    Spire TME III review

    Spire TME III review

    8 Last reviewed

    The third generation Spire TherMax Eclipse (TME) III is the latest CPU cooler to come out of the Spire manufacturing plant, and it's a decent little chiller.

    The Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme is the flagship model in Thermaltake's new all-in-one cooling line-up. But does it perform?

    Thanks to the arrival of fully enclosed kits, like this Water 2.0 Performer, liquid-cooling is now within everybody's reach.

    Arctic Cooling Freezer i30 review

    Arctic Cooling Freezer i30 review

    9 Last reviewed

    The Arctic Cooling Freezer i30 CPU coolers have been designed to support wattages up to a staggering 320 Watts. So, they're not just a clever name.

    Spire has a lot of work to do with the Spire Gemini Rev. 2 and a lot of competition to keep in check, so how does it stand up?

    Deepcool Fiend Shark review

    Deepcool Fiend Shark review

    7 Last reviewed

    You just know by the sheer size of the box it comes in that the Fiend Shark is a bit special, but even so, its size may still surprise you, as will the care taken with the way the contents are packed. It certainly puts most other cooler manufacturer's to shame in that respect, with its fixing components all having their own separate space in the two plastic packing trays.
