NL: Review Block - Some Hot Coolers

Viperlair has posted a review of the Noctua NH-D14 Heatsink.  This is clearly a monster of a cooling device, but as well all know surface area is king in the aircooling world.  The Noctra unit has the added benefit of also being rather quiet.

We recently reviewed the Noctua NH-D14, while we clearly don't have as many photos in our review we did prove it could handle a fair amount of heatload and remain quiet while doing so.

Quite a few sites have done reviews of the Venomous X and rather liked the performance and styling.  The cooler is your standard nickel plated 6 heatpipe design crammed into a single dual fan cooling tower.

In our review of the Venomous X we noted that the mounting hardware is a little mechanical but offers you the ability to dial in your heatsink pressure as you see fit.
