The Raijintek coolers are certainly making a strong first impression. It's clear the company are targeting those users who want a bang-for-buck deal, as they offer decent performance at competitive price points.

Raijintek seem to have positioned their range to take on the likes of Cooler Master and Xigmatek directly.  The top end model, the Ereboss utilizes a single tower design, rather than a more costly dual-tower configuration, showing that they aren't gunning for the top-end of the market.  This is probably a good thing, as the high-end market is becoming increasingly crowded.

We have pushed these coolers to their limits by testing them with the hot running high end Core i7 3930k processor.  We still managed to achieve a decent overclock with all three models and they weren't that loud either, which is a bonus.

Our only minor gripe with this range of coolers is the colour scheme that Raijintek have opted for.  Red and white doesn't really match any other components on the market and therefore wouldn't be our first choice. Perhaps our readers have a different take on this however. We would love to hear your views.

The three coolers are available for pre-order at Overclockers UK over here.  The Adios is priced at £15, the Thermis at £22 and the Ereboss at £32.  We feel that these prices make all three coolers excellent value for money, especially the Adios which is a steal at £15.  We would highly recommend the whole range, but the Adios in particular as it's ideal for those looking to build a powerful system in a compact case.

Pros

• All three coolers offer great value for money.
• PWM fans included.
• Managed to cool our overclocked 3930K without issue.

Cons

• Unusual colour scheme.

Kitguru says: An impressive first attempt for Raijintek.  We look forward to seeing what they come out with next!
