The idea behind this design is to lower both the price and weight of the ALX in order to bring the new cooler into the reaches of the more budget minded enthusiasts such as myself. Now, now, don’t get your panties in a twist! I can tell you’ve just seen the word “budget” and the first thing to your mind was an inevitable drop in performance and quality, but this one looks promising. The ALX-800 shares the same copper base design as the award winning SLK series which should allow it to easily handle any sudden temperature spikes from the CPU’s core. This combined with one or two other little improvements should allow this little bargain bin beauty to rise to the top of its peers.
