Core i7 coolers test

This is an interesting story about Intel's new socket and the associated coolers. Perhaps there was not even an example that it took so long for a sufficient number of novelties to finally arrive in Hungary. True, every new processor has a shorter or longer time for new coolers to arrive, but now we’ve really been waiting for many weeks.

In the first tests, which included the Core i7, we were forced to use a Nexus HTPC cooler (thanks again to the Hardware team), which was a little fun. Although it was on the compatibility list on the box, the reality was that we could only apply it with case-by-trouble. But at least we did that, because if it hadn’t been for this fridge either, our gentle readers could have waited a long time for the articles.

Then he finally ran into a single piece of Scythe that was already truly compatible, but then again, just the big silence. So many weeks passed before PC Gear finally knocked on our door and indicated that it intended to provide three coolers that specifically fit the new processor. Needless to say, we were as happy as that certain monkey on his tail.

So it’s time to get into the tests, but before we get to the specific numbers, let’s follow the usual tutorial!
