DeepCool Assassin III – Silent killer of noise and temperature

Key Features

Today I have the pleasure of introducing the Assassin III premium air cooler from DeepCool. Its size and construction is majestic, yet its design is pleasantly minimalistic without unnecessary bling. It also boasts high cooling efficiency (claimed TDP is up to 280 W). So I’m really curious to see how it performs in real tests on a hot CPU and what its acoustic performance will be like.

Conclusion and rating

I have a very good impression of the DeepCool Assassin III cooler in all aspects. Right out of the box you know you have a premium product in your hands. This continues with practically flawless workmanship and pleasantly rich accessories. All complemented by a minimalist yet luxurious design.

Most importantly, DeepCool Assassin III can handle very high heat output without being excessively noisy. The only flaws remain the relatively short warranty and the high price tag. However, we can only conclude that this cooler is overall very successful and rightfully wins the editorial award „Approved“.

New Liquid Freezer (III): Better contact and compressor from a plane

Arctic says that historically, it can’t recall a product receiving more user interest right out of the gate, just after release, than the Liquid Freezer III coolers. But no wonder. In addition to efficient fans, they bring several features to enhance cooling performance. The latter is not only high, but also very affordable. Arctic has put the coolers on sale with a rather large, still ongoing discount. A 360-millimeter variant for under 80 euros?
