Prolimatech Genesis All-in-one high end CPU cooler tested

[Manicdan]

Sounds like it would be way too heavy.

and the NH-D14 isnt too heavy?

There are many engineers around the world, that sit on their ass all day long and draw up new designs for coolers. At the end of the day, 99.9% of those designs go in to a trash been, and 0.01% that make it, share the same design with every other cooler on the market.

those engineers can fall into 2 categories,

some are trying to build something that looks just like everything else and is cheap to make and trying to take over the market for a massive profit

and others make high quality parts that are great in every way and cost a little more and work only a little better, but is worth it for the reason of meeting needs, rather than mass-producing crap.

if 99.9% of the stuff is pointless, why do we have 100 heatsinks that look like a TRUE, but are different in subtle ways? and yet none of them are really as good as others in perf/gram, or perf/m2 of surface area, or with low airflow rates. because those .1% your referring too are trying to make high margins instead of high quality.
