Why do I keep repeating myself ? Well, we actually did test the cooler with the plastic shroud yet found out that on average our temperatures where higher, and so was the noise level. So be sure to remove it.

Once remove, it looks a hell of a lot better as well. The fan itself has a blue lit LED once powered on, and is roughly 12 CM in diameter. Ooh shiny. The splastic shroud ladies and gentlement is of course there to protect your fingers as well. So when you remove it, be careful.

One last photo before we are starting up some tests in both default and overclocked modes. Again, the cooler is compatible with Pentium 4, Celeron D, Pentium D, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Extreme, Pentium Dual-Core, Core i7, Sempron, Athlon 64, Athlon 64 FX, Opteron, Dual-Core Opteron, Phenom, Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core, Athlon X2 Dual-Core, Phenom II.

Let's test !
