“The biggest drawback from the Lexcool XC-801 is the mounting issues that I ran into but I have a very simple solution to alleviate the pressure on the motherboard and to make mounting a lot easier….The fan does turn rather fast and is quite loud at this speed and a fan controller would really add to the value of this cooler. The cooling abilities of the XC-801 speak for themselves on the previous page and I was quite impressed with the results.”Here are some more Cases & Cooling reviews from around the web:

Good CPU cooler … if slightly modified
Lexcool may not be the first name that comes to mind when you mention heatsinks, though that won’t stop Overclockers Online from reviewing their newest, the Lexcool XC-801. It hasn’t got a MSRP price yet, so it is unlikely you’ll see it in stores, read the review and see if you want to wait for it.
