Who needs fanless CPU coolers anyway?


We mean who needs CPU coolers marketed as fanless, including half-baked or tiny ones like Arctic Alpine 11 passive, when juggernauts like Phanteks PH-TC14PE, Noctua NH-D14, Cryorig R1 Ultimate, be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3, Thermaltake Frio Extreme, Thermalright Silver Arrow or Akasa Venom Medusa are available, and will do a better work passively.

Sure, fin spacing is important but the sheer size - and the quality - of these dual towers will definitely make up for it. As always, make sure to choose a 35W CPU and go open air, or at least in a case with mesh on top.
