  • First about XIGMATEK Achilles S1284. Relatively inexpensive and stylish cooler employing pretty young Heatpipe Direct Touch technology will not be able to satisfy demanding overclocking fans’ needs on contemporary CPUs. But what determined the insuf...

  • Abstract:  Xigmateks Achilles S1284 heatsink is equipped with rubber vibration absorbing fan posts, a 120mm PWM fan that scales in speed from 800-1500RPM and a couple white LEDs for dramatic effect.

  • Solid performance, Four exposed 8mm nickelplated heatpipes, Unique white LEDs, Quiet fan, Rubber fan silencers, Simple installation, Available backplate mounting kit for LGA775
  • CPU may not contact all four heatpipes evenly
  • The Xigmatek Achilles S1284 is a huge improvement over the old HDT-S1283. There are four 8mm heatpipes used this time, and the pipes are nickel-plated to prevent tarnishing. The new fan is much quieter, and its white LEDs provide a unique look for a CP...

  • Competes directly with our top-five finishers from Best CPU Cooler Performance - Q1 2008, Four large 8-gauge copper heat-pipe rods in staggered positions, Nickel plated copper rods retain gas vapor for prolonged product life, Powerful yet quiet 120mm L...
  • Does not completely cover processor contact surface, Nickel plating retains heat and slightly reduces performance, Unpolished mounting base, Silicon TIM material supplied oxidizes copper, No spare soft rubber Tclip supplied for fan
  • For the first time in the history of CPU cooler reviews, I have finally found a product package worthy of a perfect 10. Xigmatek touches on our inner Spartan, and delivers a combination of playful artwork with informative statistics on their retain pa...

  • With the Xigmatek Achilles S1284C we put the bar high for other competitors which can be expected on a regular basis. With the Achilles S1284C Xigmatek present an overall good product which is aimed at overclockers as well as PC enthusiasts. The push-p...

  • Der Big Scorpion "HDT-S1284" von Xigmatek konnte im Test einen guten Eindruck hinterlassen. Besonders seine geringe Lautstrke kann jeden Silent-Fan berzeugen. Durch seine enorme Gre kann er die Wrme sehr gut abfhren und hlt so auch starke Quad-...

  • Als eindeutige Sieger aus diesem Vergleich gehen der Scythe Ninja 2 und der Xigmatek Achilles S1284 hervor. Dabei sprechen für beide Kühler die sehr ausgeglichene Kühleistung im Aktiv-Betrieb, die gute bis sehr gute Verarbeitungsqualität, das auf Wuns...

  • Der Xigmatek HDT-S1284 Achilles ist eine gute Weiterentwicklung. Die Verarbeitungsqualität ist außer bei der Bodenplatte auf einem hohen Niveau gehalten und bedarf keiner Beanstandung. Durch die vier 8 mm starken Heatpipes und die größere Kühlkörper...

  • Mit dem Achilles hat Xigmatek seine Produktpalette sinnvoll nach oben hin abgerundet. Der Kühler liegt leistungsmäßig vor dem Red Scorpion und profitiert damit von der zusätzlichen Heatpipe. Weiterhin kann der Kühler mit einem kompletten Lieferumfang, ...
