“Founded in 2005, Xigmatek have not been around for long but we have reviewed many of their products, including heatsinks and several PSUs. The heatsink market is certainly a crowded area to compete in, full of different products with various design ethics and applications. Today we’re going to look at the Cobra cooler from Xigmatek, a promising looking unit which makes use of four heatpipes and direct touch technology.”Here are some more Cases & Cooling reviews from around the web:

The more you know
With a name like the Cobra Cooler, it seems obvious what the favourite toy of one of the engineers at Xigmatek was. It’s odd design doesn’t mean that the cooler performs poorly, indeed it is a significant improvement on the stock cooler. It will work in smaller machines thanks to a fairly compact design and the 92mm fan it uses. Drop by DriverHeaven to see this cooler.
