HDT processor coolers had recently become very popular, and nowadays more and more models flood the market. A while ago we received one Akasa product of the type and now is the time to review it. Today we'll tell you a tail of Nero AK-967 and what it does.
Our partners from Akasa were kind enough and supplies to us one of their new Nero AK-967 coolers for testing. It is essentially a HDT (heatpipe direct touch) cooler (quite large at that) that uses a 120mm fan for better cooling. We won't go into details about the technology, since we've done it before . The price of this product is 38$.
