Introduction
Xigmatek is not a common name around our industry. Actually, they are fairly new; only forming in 2005. Xigmatek strives to become a major player in the PC industry. “Combining the cream of product designers, R&D engineers and technical people (main team in Germany) Xigmatek is proud and full of confidence to offer excellent quality products and service to cover the customers requirements and demands.” ~ Xigmatek.com
Xigmatek has sent us three of their headlining CPU coolers for review. The Xigmatek HDT-S1283, HDT-S963 and XP-S964 coolers each encompass a combination of copper heatpipes and aluminum fins that has quickly become an industry standard. The HDT-S963 and HDT-S1283 are escencially the same cooler. The S963 is a 92mm variant of the 120mm S1283 cooler and the XP-S964 features some unique features that you probably haven’t seen before. Enough gib-gab, let’s get to it!
