Fractal Design Kelvin S36 360mm Liquid CPU Cooler Review

In our noise level tests we switched off all the case fans and replaced the AMD Radeon HD 7950 graphics card with a HD 5550 passive model so were  just taking into account the noise generated by the cooler fans themselves.

We measured the noise level with a Digital Noise Level meter at a distance of 1 m from the front of the system.

Here we can see the Kelvin S36 offers great acoustic performance, meaning it offers an excellent balance between acoustics and cooling performance.

    Nice review. It will be great if you can make a review of S24. 🙂 This one is really nice product, only thing that i notice is that bracket does not have holes for a different sockets, just slider like hole where you can move screws to fit. Does the block tend to move a lot during instalation? Particulary interested in mounting it on a 1150 socket.
