Frankly speaking, the Hex 2.0 is a tough cooler to recommend for most people, primarily because the cost is so high relative to the performance it offers in most situations. If you're not space-limited, even a super high-end air-cooler like the Noctua NH-...

The HEX 2.0 may be the most elegant TEC-based CPU cooler we've tested, but users who want its combination of cooling, controllability and size will pay a premium for that additional elegance. $149.99 Newegg MOREBest CPU Cooling MOREAll Co...

Premium build quality, Very high performance for its size, Low noise output from the 92 mm fan, Easy to use software
Cost, Usefulness depends on specific usage scenarios
The Hex 2.0 from Phononic is not your typical CPU cooler. It functions as both a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) - which you may also know as a Peltier cooler - and as a standard heatsink/fan, depending on CPU load. It offers a small footprint for placement i...

As we said in the introduction, the Hex 2.0 is something a little bit different, as although it may resemble a traditional tower cooler, it's actually a Thermoelectric cooler (TEC) or, if you prefer, a Thermoelectric pump or Peltier device, so called beca...
So what did we think of the Phononic HEX 2.0 Thermoelectric CPU cooler? We think it's an amazing product, well put together and has some seriously cool technology. More than that, it performs really well in the tests, not the best by far but certainly not...

In this review we had a look at perhaps the only consumer CPU thermoelectric-based cooler that has been released after 2010. While Phononic has extensive knowledge and experience on various cooling and refrigeration topics, this is their first retail prod...

The Phononic HEX 2.0 is as impressive as the hype would suggest. Not only does this cooler compete with single 120mm radiator based AIOs, but it also climbed the list and took on some of the 240mm based AIOs as well. Considering the size of the HEX 2.0...
Abstract: On trouvait que le marché du ventirad stagnait l'an passé, en raison du manque de nouveauté et d'inspiration des acteurs du segment. C'était sans compter sur Phononic, généralement présent dans le milieu industriel et qui compte bien profiter du marché gr...

Proposé à un tarif de 125€ le Phononic Hex 2.0 n'est pas donné, loin de là, mais il fallait s'y attendre avec une technologie comme celle-ci, si vous cherchez un produit sortant de l'ordinaire alors il remplira parfaitement son rôle, pour les autres qui v...
