CONCLUSION

   It’s been a while since we last had anything by CRYORIG on our test bench and although the H7 Quad Lumi is not exactly their latest model it’s probably their best looking one to date so we really wanted to check it out. Also since unlike the original H7 the H7 Quad Lumi is compatible with our primary test rig this time we used that for our tests and as you can all see our results are better than expected (we didn’t expect the H7 Quad Lumi to surpass the Be Quiet Dark Rock 4). Of course it’s also clear that its performance comes at the cost of noise but we suspect that many consumers will probably ignore that not only because of its cooling efficiency but also its looks. Now as mentioned earlier CRYORIG used a white LED fan with two RGB LED strips and at although that did strike us as a bit odd at first the end result is very good (still an RGB fan would look far better so we do hope CRYORIG will update the H7 Quad Lumi with one of their upcoming RGB fans).

   After roughly 15 months in the market the H7 Quad Lumi CPU Cooler by CRYORIG currently retails for USD59.95 inside the USA (Newegg.com) and for 57.58Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which is one more of its strong selling points. Of course if high cooling efficiency is at your top of your list or if you’re just looking for a whisper quiet CPU cooler the H7 Quad Lumi may not be the best candidate but if you’re looking for a model that looks great, performs very well and doesn’t cost much then this might just be it and that’s why it gets our Golden Award.
