Reeven has a solid contender on their hands with the Ouranos CPU cooler. Offering an offset design for better memory compatibility, it makes a compelling case for itself. Granted, it doesn't hurt that it performs well and is nearly completely silent in most situations.

In swedish yellow rhymes with ugly so yellow is ugly. Anyway.

My initial reaction was, as always, "yet another cooler from yet another company", and this is true but it seems to be quite nice. A lot of these new kids don't end up on this market though, which is a bit of a shame.

In English, yellow rhymes with jello. I have no idea of the significance of that, except lemon jello is yellow.

Nice review, the cooler itself is rather non-descript looking.

If I am to strap 1kg worth of cooling to my motherboard it has to do a much better job than this cooler does.
It's not bad for its price, but that weight... it's not for everybody.

Could you test the Scythe Grand Kama Cross 3 and include a comparison of the VRM temps between it and a "normal" tower cooler ?

This thing just screams you to slap on an industrial Noctua or some other ridiculous fan.. Dat fin spacing.
I've come to appreciate the relaxed fin spacing on my HR-02 Macho so much.

In Spanish it rhymes with ice so take your pick. :D

It has good/above average performance it seems. Fan mounting seems pretty straightforward (wire clips are my pet peeve - if they look easy that's a plus).
