Finished Looks

Titan's Dragonfly 4 won't win awards on its looks alone. There are no LEDs or crazy plastic shrouds. It, instead, has a simple, clean design, which will make it blend in once installed into a system. The Dragonfly logo on top adds a bit of flair, but will most likely not be visible once the cooler has been installed; that is, unless you look closely. With a black-sleeved cable and no bare wires visible, and its dark blue fan, the Dragonfly will match most systems in terms of theme, which is a nice touch.


It is also nice to see that even a second fan won't block access to the memory on socket LGA2011. There is the fact that it won't top performance charts, but with a TDP rating of up to 160 watts, it is no slouch for its size.


The only thing missing is the second fan. Titan's fan clips are for use with their 15 mm fan, which is rather hard to find at the time of writing, but that will hopefully change soon.


Regardless of everything else, clearance is what sets the Dragonfly 4 apart. Not only does it offer best-in-class memory clearance, but it also comes with exceptional clearance around the entire CPU socket. Users will have no issues with it blocking the first expansion slot on their motherboard either. This ease of access is a wonderful thing. I found myself liking Titan's Dragonfly more and more as I installed / removed various components during testing. It never got in my way.
