Finished Looks

With the LEDs off, the cooler easily blends in with the rest of the system. Normally, the copper heat pipes would stand out more and bring some attention-grabbing color; however, thanks to the heat pipe caps, the cooler instead ends up being a bit stealthy when looked at straight on.


Clearance is not an area in which this smaller tower cooler excels as it put pressure on our G.Skill Trident Z stick in the first slot. This does not apply to all memory as standard-height DIMMs will fit under the fan with no problems. Still, it is something worth keeping in mind as a tiny offset here would have allowed for perfect clearance no matter which memory kit is used. Definitely something ID-Cooling should look into for future revisions.


The RGB lighting looks fairly good and is not overly bright, instead adding a tasteful glow that won't burn your retinas or keep you up at night. That said, it may not show up as well in a chassis with tinted side panels.
