The SilverStone Heligon HE02 does its job perfectly and cools the CPUs without any fans. It copes not only with 95W CPUs as promised by its official specs but even with hotter models. In our tests the Heligon HE02 maintained stability for a six-core I...
Abstract: The Silverstone Heligon HE02 is being sold as a passive heatsink for sub-95W TDP processors, so today on Frostytech we'll put this big, boxy, silent heatsink through its passive paces. No fans will be used in the testing, just good old noise-less conv...
SilverStone raised the price of the HE02 while taking away the fan compared to the HE01 unit. This is the proverbial nail in the coffin for the SilverStone HE02. At the price this cooler is selling for, we just can't find a reason anyone would want to pur...
Abstract: Video Review: The SilverStone Heligon HE02 CPU Cooler is massive, comes with a smooth copper base, six 6mm heatpipes & many fins. This product doesn't include with any fans, but one or two 120mm optional can be installed with the included clips. This...
The SilverStone HE02 is a huge, very well-made CPU cooler, with a clever design that shifts the center of the heatsink from the base, offering better compatibility with motherboards and memory modules with tall heatsinks.However, we were disappointed with...

You may have noticed that I didn't do any sound charts, and this is because that is very subjective to the fans chosen to run with the cooler. Since SilverStone doesn't include any fans with the HE02 I thought it was not needed to show you the noise l...
Best passive cooler we have tested, Excellent build quality, Reliable fitting kit, Noiseless operation
Large, Not suited to substantial overclocking
So we’ve reached the end of our review, has the monolith HE02 given good thermal performance results or has it just achieved silence only?As soon as you take the HE02 out of its packaging the sheer size of this CPU cooler is a talking point just on it...
Can passively cool highperformance CPUs, Asymmetric design should fit various enclosures
Doesn't work particularly well with fans, Mammoth in both size and weight, Awkward to install
The Heligon HE02 ultimately serves a very specific need. If you have to have a completely fanless PC, the HE02, at the very least, provides a viable option.Passive coolers for high-end CPUs have always been something of a mystery to us. If you're buil...
