Today we are going to talk about three new cooling solutions that in fact are none other but slightly tuned up modifications of the good old cooler models, which you all are already familiar with.
This new cooler from the Japanese maker is designed the same way as the well-known Kama Cross, but has grown up quite substantially and is topped with a 140 mm fan.
Today we are going to talk about two new cooling solutions from GlacialTech. They turned out completely different not only in exterior design and configuration, but also in price and cooling efficiency.
We are going to talk about another new processor cooler with heat-pipe direct touch technology.
We have already introduced fans from Nexus to you in our latest fan roundup. Today we are going to talk about complete cooling solutions from this company.
Today we are going to talk about a very interesting and unique cooler using Core-Contact technology (when heatpipes form part of the cooler base).

The three new processor coolers that we are going to discuss today belong to the so-called tower-type. However, they look and perform very differently. Our today’s review will tell you which solution is the best of the three and what its advantages are.

We are going to talk about a liquid-solution from Alphacool, one of the leaders in this field. Although this product is not very new anymore, it is still very up-to-date and has a lot of potential.
Not everyone needs super-efficient and expensive CPU cooling solutions, which we test on a regular basis. On the contrary, most users would be quite happy with a decent replacement to their boxed coolers that would run quieter. Today we are going to talk about four solutions like that from Scythe Thermaltake and Xilence.
Today we are going to talk not just about a graphics card cooler, but about an entire kit for fully-fledged and highly efficient cooling for extremely hot graphics accelerators.
Could one quietly dissipate 320 W of heat from a graphics accelerator? You will probably exclaim that this is impossible? Well, looks like in this case you would be wrong. Please meet a new extreme cooling solution from Arctic Cooling.
Our roundup will talk about 14 power supply units from 12 different manufacturers that have one thing in common: they all offer capacity of 1000W or higher.
