   AIO liquid cooling systems may have started to surpass regular CPU air coolers in popularity even among consumers with small PC cases (120/140mm models) but for the ones with really tight budgets it will probably be a long time before these solutions become a standard part of their builds. Of course the industry is well aware of this and so we don't see quite as many CPU air coolers being developed and released lately but still there are more than just enough models out there to cover pretty much every single consumer in the market today. REEVEN may be one of the newest companies in the PC cooling industry but they've already released quite a few interesting models including the very good Okeanos dual-heatsink CPU cooler which we reviewed a while back. Today and after quite a few of you asked we're going to be testing their latest top-down flagship model called the Steropes.


   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 Steropes took its name from Greek Mythology and more specifically from one of the three one-eyed Cyclopes who were sons to Gaia and Uranus and brothers to the Titans. According to Hesiod Steropes could control lightning and along with his two brothers crafted the weapon which gave the ability to control lightning bolts (and thunderbolts) to Zeus after he saved them from their imprisonment in Tartarus by their brother Cronus (as a Greek these were some of the stories i heard from a very early age). With this out of the way the REEVEN Steropes is a C-Type (top-down) CPU cooler that features a total of five 6mm all-copper nickel plated heatpipes and gets shipped with an 120mm high-RPM low-profile PWM fan. With a height of just 60mm with the fan the Steropes may not be the largest top-down CPU cooler in the market today but it's not the smallest one either so let's see just what kind of cooling efficiency you can expect from it.
