eTeknix.com posted a review on the Nofan CR-95C IcePipe Copper CPU Cooler
Quiet and Silent are just a couple of marketing buzz words that get thrown around a lot when it comes to CPU coolers. But if we actually think, what is truly quiet or silent? 0 dBA?Nofan CR-95C IcePipe Copper CPU Cooler Review
Taking the 0 dBA definition of silent, we know of only one CPU cooler on the market that provides total silence. Made by the aptly-named company “NoFan”, the CR-95C IcePipe Copper CPU cooler is an entirely passive CPU cooler. Passive cooling is something we’ll all be familiar with as many graphics cards run passively.
Yet consider that logics behind that – why do graphics cards (with higher TDPs than most processors) get passive cooling and processors have been all but neglected? We would love to see more cooling companies innovate with passive CPU coolers. But until that day arrives NoFan are leading the way on their own with enthusiast class passive CPU coolers.
