Jetart VC3600 VCool GPU Cooler
Since I began my journey on the rocky road of Hardware Reviewing, many company's products have crossed my path. None however, have left as much of a lasting impression as Jetart. This not particularly well known company, hailing from the beautiful country of Taiwan, has created some simply awesome active GPU coolers in the past and I have continued to use their products in my own rig since I discovered them. Naturally you can understand that I was very excited to receive their latest GPU cooler, the VC3600 VCool. This cooler is not only their newest cooler, but it is also a cooler that moves away from Jetart's typical active cooler style into an exhaust fan setup. With some innovative cooler ideas such as a multi-directional intake fan it is safe to say I expected big things from this cooler, I wasn't disapointed.
Jetart Storm 2
Recently, I had the privilege of reviewing the Jetart 3D cooler that, in my opinion, wasn't the most well conceived product out there. Now I have the VC1000, better known as the Storm 2, in my hands. With a brighter package, better look and a more enticing name, can this better the 3D cooler? I sure hope so…
Arctic Alpine 64
A quiet serene desktop workstation or a performance pixel churning cooling mammoth? Two extremes of the PC cooling world I know, my point being, can a balance be maintained between them?
Jetart All in One GPU cooler
For the last few weeks I have cursed my lack of knowledge at the time of building my last rig. From buying a Venice core CPU instead of spending a bit more for a San Diego, to RAM being more expensive than my motherboard and power supply combined. None however has annoyed me as much as my choice of my XFX PCX6600, when a 6800LE was much the same price. Because of this very reason I have squeezed every last drop of speed I can from this card. With a large core clock OC and a small mem clock overclock to boot, my graphics card has begun kicking out some serious heat. So upon contacting Jetart, I was sent their VGA all in one cooler. Needless to say I was very impressed by this cooler, to the point that it is still in my rig as I write this, replacing the now defunct arctic cooler. Read on to find out why.
XSPC Watercooling Kit
Over the last few years XSPC have produced some products that even the top water cooling companies in the world have taken notice of. However they have always been very much part of the single components crowd, that is until they came up with the X20 kit near the end of last summer. The guys at XSPC have been kind enough to let me road test this kit, and needless to say for such a simple kit I have been very impressed, read on to find out why.
Jetart VC2000 GPU Cooler
Jetart, although not a particularly mainstream company, have been growing steadily in popularity and notoriety throughout the cooling world over the past couple of years. They have produced such fantastic graphics card coolers as the JASCH1, which in XSR’s own test, trounced Artic Cooling’s offering for the same card. And here I am again, reviewing Jetart’s latest all in one VGA cooler, the VC2000.
Antec’s VCool
Antec say they are the #1 brand in computer cooling, but graphics card cooling seems to be a new branch for the huge Antec company. Does their first attempt meet the mark?
Coolink HDD Cooler
As a hardware reviewer, many pieces of equipment have passed through my hands. I have sampled coolers for almost every place in my current rig. Radiator, CPU, RAM, graphics card, chipset, and case fans. However I have never had the chance to review a hard drive cooler, well thanks to CooLink, now is my chance.
Jetart 3D Cooler
Jetart have been making enthusiast products for your PC for awhile now. I personally have never seen any of their products in the shops. This product is aimed at cooling your GFX card and Northbridge whilst looking good at the same time.
