Abstract: Thermalright are well known in the CPU cooling business for producing quality products, so it's no surprise to see them launch a product into the premium end of the market. At £55, the Archon SB-E X2 is close in price to other high end coolers like the No...
Through a combination of its octet of heat pipes, ultra high pressure mounting system and a pair of efficient fans, the Archon SB-E X2 hits a sweet spot when it comes to cooling CPUs. Its low temperatures are matched by low noise levels, and evidently ...
Thermalright's Archon SB-E X2 CPU cooler costs £56 in the UK. This means that Thermalright are fighting it out at the £60 price point with high performance dual tower heatsinks like the Noctua NH-D14 and Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 2. It is also situated at t...

The Thermalright Archon SB-E X2 is impressive in its construction. Eight heatpipes (actually working as if there were 16, since they are U-shaped) is not a common feature, and two 140 mm fans is the current standard for high-end air coolers.Unfortunately...
Grand, très grand, Cher, très cher, Installation des ventilateurs
Performant, peu bruyant, fin, l'Archon SB-E X2 a de nombreux atouts à faire valoir. Il faut dire qu'avec ce modèle, Thermalright gomme le principal défaut des radiateurs double tour, à savoir l'accès à la mémoire souvent bloqué partiellement.Pour autant...
Kompatibilitätsprobleme bei unserem System, Lautstärke 12V
Zusammenfassend lässt sich festhalten, dass der Kühler selbst in schwierigen Situationen standhalten kann. Bei einer CPU-Spannung von 1,2V bei unserem i5-2500K und einer Lüfterspannungen von 7V wurde eine Temperatur von 50°C, respektive 56°C erreicht, ...
