Sharkoon CPU cooler with golf ball fan

The cooling unit, called the Silent Eagle, can be used with AMD in the Socket 939 socket and Intel processors with LGA775 enclosure.

The Sharkoon cooler deserves special attention mainly because of its specially designed fan blades: the manufacturer claims that the tiny pits resembling a golf ball are used to reduce turbulence, so they practically reduce the noise level. The speed per minute can vary between 900 and 2000, at which point the fan noise emission value is around 16,4-25,6 dBA.

Nor can we talk about a real copper core in the case of Silent Eagle, as the extension of the heat pipes contacts the processor core and through this the warm air leaves the aluminum fins. We could come across such a solution OCZ Vendetta is.

The recommended retail price for the 77 × 130 × 100 mm Sharkoon Silent Eagle is € 20.
