Many believe that the air cooling market is stagnating and that we have
reached the peak of what we can achieve with the tower heatsink design. But
over the last few months, if we have learnt anything from manufacturers,
it's that innovation is the driving force to make any break through and the
last few weeks have certainly showed that the market is still alive and
going strong. Back in November, we saw the release of the Noctua NH-D14, and
before hand, Prolimatech and Corsair managed to successfully intimidate
leading manufacturers such as Noctua and Thermalright. Today, Coolink are
attempting to do the same thing and with their years of experience, they
hope to deliver excellent performance to the mass market.
The Corator DS is the brain child of Coolink and while it may appear similar
to the Noctua NH-D14 on first glance, rest assured that Coolink use their
own innovations to not only cut costs but to deliver unparalleled
performance. Coupled with the previously reviewed SWiF2-120P PWM fan, the
Corator DS certainly looks promising. Unlike Noctua, Coolink hope that this
cooler will not be reserved to the ultra enthusiasts who would normally fork
out a lot of money to shave off a few degrees from their CPUs. Priced below
most high end coolers, the Corator DS looks like an even more attractive
offering with wider appeal amongst users.
