Xigmatek Venus XP-SD1266 Cooler Review

Rating: 7.5.

Last month we looked at the Xigmatek MidGard II chassis and today we are featuring another product from Xigmatek, the Venus XP-SD1266 CPU Cooler. The Venus XP-SD1266 has a nickel coated copper base and features six 6mm heatpipes to draw heat away from the processor. This tower style cooler relies on a single 120mm fan to move the air through the aluminum fins. The fan that XIGMATEK have chosen for the Venus XP-SD1266 has a CFM rating of 90.3 CFM when operating at full speed.

XIGMATEK key management staff have many years experience in Thermal industry, PC, manufacturing and other applications.

Lets get started by looking at the key features and specifications of this new cooler.

Features:

  • Soldered Heat pipes to nickel plated Heatsink base and fins
  • Special drop high design to minimize airflow resistance

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
