Xigmatek Also Intros GAIA SD1283 CPU Cooler
Xigmatek's launch of the LOKI SD963 isn't the only one for the day, the company also rolled out its slightly larger sibling, the Gaia SD1283, which also seems to be targeted at value conscious buyers seeking high cooling performance. This one is larger than the LOKI in being able to accommodate 120 mm fans. It measures 120(W) x 50(D) x 159(H) mm, weighing 460 g (heatsink). The heatsink features forked-X shaped fins that have a slight bump towards the center, to increase turbulence and surface area. Like its smaller sibling, it also features three copper heat pipes, but 8 mm thick. The heat pipes make direct contact with the CPU at the base. The company bundles one 120 mm spinner that does 800~1500 rpm with a noise output level of 16 to 24 dBA. Angled rubber bolts dampen vibrations as they hold the fan on to the heatsink.

Nothing special about this cooler.
I plan on putting a copper heatspreader down so all pipes can be used soon XD
As for Xigmatek, they make some pretty good coolers at affordable prices so not sure how cheap they went with these two. That Thors Hammer is a sexy beast though. Seen that in Gigaparts the other day.
