reeven ouranos rc 1401a

   CPU air coolers may not have evolved much during the last few years and there's indeed not much room for improvement (some manufacturers have tried with not much success) but some models can actually offer enough cooling efficiency to rival and in some cases even surpass many AIO (All In One) liquid CPU coolers. What really stands out in the CPU cooling industry however is the continuously growing number of new manufacturers who offer competitive products at very appealing prices something which benefits consumers quite a bit since in a way that "forces" all the old manufacturers to lower their prices and further improve their products. REEVEN is a very new player in the market and today we're taking a look at one of their top CPU coolers the Ouranos RC-1401.


   REEVEN is a newly established international manufacturer of PC related products. REEVEN’s product lines include the best quality of advanced CPU coolers, Cooling Fans, PC Cases and many other items. The target of our products will be a wide range of audience under our philosophy “Professional Quality Gears”, for products that will withstand the highest demand.


   The REEVEN Ouranos RC-1401 is yet another tower (U-Type) heatsink based CPU air cooler combined with an 140mm PWM fan so at first glance there's nothing really special about it (aside the yellow/orange fan blades). REEVEN however took a somewhat unusual approach so instead of using 6 identical heatpipes with the Ouranos they decided to place two 8mm heatpipes at the center of the heatsink (where it should receive the most heat from the cores of the CPU) and four 6mm heatpipes on the outside. We have seen many heatsinks with 8mm heatpipes but i can't recall of a model that had 6mm and 8mm heatpipes. In any case whether or not that's enough to improve the cooling efficiency of the Ouranos to a point where it will impress us well that remains to be seen.
