One thing about being a reviewer is that you get lots of stuff, especially CPU Coolers, so I've got quite a few of them on hand and thought I'd compare them all together. This isn't just a comparison of results from a bunch of reviews, this is all new testing done with these coolers specifically for this article.Where applicable I've even tested these coolers without fans to see just how well they perform as truly silent cooling solutions. Inside you'll find sections with the coolers using the fan connected to a Molex, meaning running at full speed, connected to the CPU header, PWM controlled if applicable and of course a section just for coolers without their fans.

Check it out at DSM.
