Jonsbo Shows Intriguing CR-401 Tower Style Processor Cooler

Looks nice. It all comes down to how it performs against the Noctua NH-D15, and whether the fan is replaceable.

 

What happens if the fan dies....

 

You must be joking , it is not even in the same league as NH-D15 ,maybe nh-u12s ,primary goal of this cooler is to look nice , then thanks to just it's shear size to cool.

 

It's a Tuniq Tower restyle

 

It looks like the top is secured with some screws, so I'd assume that comes off and you just slide the fan up and out like the old Tuniq 120 Extreme cooler.

 

This won't fit into most cases. Just saying.

 

With decent all-in-ones costing £40 - £50 i wonder why people look at this kind of cooler (obviously depending on its cost).

 

I guess you will be no fan of this make anymore

I hope it works well, look wise, dont like, but then again anything can look ugly in my case . What it does is more important than what it looks

 

I can't find anything decent (new) under 80€ +VAT

 

Unless i missed it theres no price quoted for that tower so cooling ability Vs an all-in-one solution on a cost vs cost basis is moot, however there are some great solutions at sub £60 in the UK .

I wouldn't go under H75, but to each his own. And indeed, for UK, those are good prices, if they are VAT included. UK folks usually get shafted with EU prices +20$ on top of that for no reason...usually.
The thing is, unless you MUST have an AIO, you can get a H75 comparable Air cooler for similar money. ANd H75 can't outperform my Megahalems, but to be honest, it was more expensive then H75 when I got it. Then again, there were no AIO coolers back then

 

All prices in the UK are inc VAT unless otherwise stated, prices are up at the moment due to the exchange rate with the USD but as that is moving back up from a low of $1.25 to over $1.35 things will get back to normal. Not so good for me as im a UK resident but get paid in USD so the lower the better for me even if it means imported goods are more expensive.
As for W Cing ive only ever employed custom loops, ive got four rigs with custom loops in at the moment, mostly EK stuff cooling both CPU and GPU except my HTMC in my mancave which has just the AMD FM1 CPU WCed.

 

Well, good for you. I even envy you a little bit but my loop days are long gone. I just don't have the time anymore, and mostly, I lack the enthusiasm. I just can't be bothered with all that comes with it over time.

 

i dont mind paying for a good cooler, air that is . They last, unlike anything else in a system, you are more likely to update, but the cooler can follow your next build.
