?Cruise missiles don?t immediately spring to mind in connection to perhaps one of the more mundane, yet very important, parts of a computer rig ? the humble thermal paste. This grey paste is vital to the cool running of the CPU especially when it comes to overclocking as every single degree counts.
In recent years, Arctic Silver 5 has been at the top of the pile when it comes to thermal grease performance. However, with seemingly every single thermal solutions company producing their own acclaimed perfect compound, many now rival the once stand-out AS5.
Evercool are the latest company to send us their tube of thermal grease; so how does it compare to other pastes??

I don?t know if anyone else here watches "Ace of Cakes". It seems like every single one they make is bigger than the last. I?m always sure that they're going to topple over and cover an entire block with icing. He makes the coolest looking stuff, and his motto is; ?Make it bigger, make it badder, make it awesome.? I?m starting to think that EverCool took this lesson to heart when they started designing the Transformer series of heatsinks. When I reviewed the Transformer 6 last year, I had my doubts as to whether this thing?s weight would snap my motherboard like a twig. It was absolutely enormous.

"The Evercool HPK-10025EA heatsink uses a simple arrangement of swagged aluminum fins over four 6mm diameter copper heatpipes, connected by a short distance to the CPU. The entire heatsink stands 65mm tall and weighs a feathery 320 grams. The four heatpipes are exposed at the base of the heatsink, which although now a common technique is a first for such a low profile heatsink. The stubby aluminum fins rest below an Arctic Cooling style, red 110mm fan that rotates at a moderately audible 1800RPM."

?Today I will be looking at another Evercool cooler, the Transformer 4. Totally unlike the Buffalo, this cooler supports pretty much every CPU built in the past several years, it is a hulking four-piped monstrosity, more like the large coolers I am accustomed to, and instead of having one open-framed fan, it has a pair of fans in open collocation, which adds to its large size. The Transformer 4 looks like it should have no problem cooling that hot i7. Will it do the job? Read on to see!"

Like most desktop PCs, a typical notebook/laptop nowadays is using more power and thus is creating more heat. In response to the heat, many companies are starting to offer notebook PC coolers designed to provide additional cooling capability. Today we?ll be looking at the Evercool Hermes Notebook cooler, which has a small footprint and a unique shape. Read on to find out if this cooler brings cool temperatures to your notebook.

So here it is. A well marketed, acceptably manufactured, and very difficult to install cooler, marred only by it's substandard performance... it really seems like everything went downhill since I opened the box. While there are a number of good ideas here, they all falter on the same lines. Let's start with the simplest one. By layering the two sets of fins over each other, a lot of the heat dissipated just goes to return, and heat up the fins below. This isn't the first time, or the first company to have this problem, nor are they to try and alleviate it in a simple manner - put the cooler fins on top.

Here at VH, we seem to currently be on a little "notebook cooler pad kick" of sorts. Not that I'm complaining, especially after I received this next item up for review: the Royal Notebook Cooling Pad (Model: NP-901) from Acoustic PC. This sharp baby was created for laptops from 14" to 17" wide screen, has storage drawers for peripherals, and is fitted with USB 2.0 ports to mount externals. The Royal is made of 100% aluminum for maximum heatsink style cooling, and sports a smart, 8 cm silent fan that pulls exhaust air away from your laptop instead of pushing outside air into it, thus eliminating a significant amount of dirt and dust contamination and helping to prolong the life (and health) of your notebook.

The problem is that most of these laptops on the higher end of the spectrum are 15" and 17" widescreen laptops with the fastest and hottest hardware inside and there just is very little choice when it comes to cooling 17" widescreen laptops especially. Well today I have for you one such product marketed specifically at the larger widescreen laptops including the 17" big dogs. It's from a company called Evercool and it's called the Space Station Widescreen Cooling Pad. It sports dual 80mm exhaust fans and 4 internal exhaust ports (hence the quad reference) strategically funneled through the unit. Let's take a closer look and see if this product holds true to cool and hold a large 17" laptop.

Over the past few months Evercool has been quiet when it comes to CPU cooling solutions. Well they have recently released the Buffalo CPU Cooler onto the market. This new CPU cooler features the popular heatpipe design with an all copper base and a 100mm fan. Let's see if it can get the job done against the other AMD CPU coolers we have tested.

We haven't seen much from Evercool this year, but that have released a few new CPU Coolers. Today we will be looking at the HPD-815 Sharks CPU Cooler. It has quite a unique design and features thermal heatpipes, build-in fan speed control and a LED fan. Let's see if it can compete with other coolers on the market.
