Today we are going to look at SilverStone's latest addition to the CPU cooler market, the Argon Series AR01. This cooler incorporates three 8mm thick copper heat pipes, a 120mm fan and SilverStone's own anti-vibration fan mounts to strike a balance between performance and silence. Retailing for £23.98 inc. vat, the AR01 is aimed at users on a budget who do not want to compromise on performance.
Can the SilverStone Argon AR01 compete with the likes of the Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 and the Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo?
