   Nowadays in the market there may be a virtually unlimited number of CPU coolers but it wasn't that long ago when the only available solution people had was the quite noisy and not very good stock factory cooler (HSF). Of course back then overclocking didn't really exist and since performance benchmarks didn't really exist either (thus almost no performance competition between the few available systems) nobody really wanted more. Well i can't say with certainty if it was the increased needs in overclocking over the years or just the need many people had for "quieter" systems that actually opened the path for 3rd party CPU coolers in the market but regardless of the reason the end result is obvious to all (even though the number of available coolers may actually confuse some people). Our review today is about one such CPU Cooler and more specifically the Okeanos RC-1402 model by REEVEN.


   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 Okeanos RC-1402 is based on a dual aluminum heatsink design built around six heatpipes so although quite thicker compared to the Ouranos RC-1401 model which we reviewed recently it's still nothing we haven't seen in the past by other manufacturers. REEVEN also equips the Okeanos RC-1402 with two high speed PWM fans (120/140mm) and gives you the ability to add a 3rd by offering an extra set of mounts something not every manufacturer out there does. Unfortunately much like with every other dual heatsink CPU cooler in the market the sheer size of the Okeanos RC-1402 automatically means that clearance issues with some mainboards and/or memory modules are possible and thus a zero-clearance model like the Ouranos RC-1401 is a better choice. However what matters is just how much better the Okeanos is compared to the Ouranos so let's find out.
