Abstract: The Xigmatek Dark Knight-S1283V & HDT-S1284 CPU Coolers are amongst the best on the market. If you are looking for an affordable CPU Cooler option, consider either of these products. The..
You can find both the S1284 and the Dark Knight S1283 coolers on Newegg.com for a reasonable price. The S1284 is a bit cheaper at around 35-40 dollars. The Dark Knight is slightly more expensive at about 45 dollars. Both coolers were very quiet; they ...

The Achilles is a very high quality CPU cooling solution that produces a moderate amount of noise and performs up there with all the top CPU coolers at this time. In comparison with the older S1283 solution we see that the Achilles has four 8mm ...
4 Heat Pipe Configureatin, Antivibration fam mounts, Low fan noise level, Ease of instalation, Stylish design
Heat pipes block the second bracket groove for AMD sockets, Performance overall, Need for a better fan
Due to time constraints I wasn’t able to test the HDT-S1284 with a different fan other than what was supplied. The results are good, but in my opinion not good enough to warrant this over its 3 heat-pipe counterparts. As I alluded to I have yet to t...
