  • The GeminII has been in place now for a couple of weeks. It’s still doing a nice job of cooling the CPU. I did opt to get two 2100-RPM 120mm case fans for optimal cooling. Notice that my original 120mm rear fan is back in place. Not much room left...

  • Abstract:  From the very beginning of heat pipe technology utility on desktop computers, the biggest “profiteers” were processors. No matter if CPU or GPU are cooled (or anything else) heat pipe always had an advantage comparing to classic cooling manner. The glo...

  • Abstract:  The GeminII is, for want of a better word, huge. Rather than take the skyscraper option of building upwards like the popular tower coolers, CoolerMaster has opted to build outwards, meaning if your fans are pointing down and particularly high CFM that ...

  • Abstract:  With enough surface area to cool a car engine, and measuring 175 x 124mm across the top, the GeminII is one of the largest processor heatsinks on the market. It comes without a fan, but the idea is you mount either one or two 120mm units on the rail...

  • The Cooler Master GeminII CPU/Board cooler is without doubt the largest heat sink we have ever tested, but despite this, installation of the product was very easy, something which surprised us. We were pleased to see that the GeminII was able to cool ...

  • Wide heatsink spreads cooling
  • Large
  • This is a cooler that seems like it could cause metal shortages across the world. A gigantic lump of a heatsink makes up the design that spreads itself all over your cases internals. And while its rather large, its also svelte with it; its low enou...

  • Abstract:  L’Intel Core i7 est maintenant disponible depuis le mois de Novembre 2008, la mémoire DDR3 triple canal est désormais abordable à 50€ les 3Go. Seul bémol, les cartes mères ont du mal à voir leurs prix chuter. Ainsi vous avez peut être sauté le pas ou v...

  • Bonne dissipation thermique, Ventilateurs sur rails pour éviter les vibrations, Refroidit la carte mère et la mémoire vive (avec ajout de deux ventilateurs)
  • Taille imposante, Montage assez long
  • Un très bon dissipateur pour tout type de processeurs, quadruple cœurs compris. Couplé avec deux ventilateurs silencieux, il peut devenir une alternative intéressante aux autres modèles haut de gamme....

  • Il est bon de commencer par rappeler les conditions de ce test pour mieux en apprécier la conclusion. Le Gemin II a été monté avec deux ventilateurs de 120mm. Pas des enermax (par exemple) à 3000trs/min (ou plus), mais des Noctua à 1200trs/min. Le Gem...

  • Il Cooler Master Gemin II nasce da un’idea di fondo, unire insieme il raffreddamento della CPU al raffreddamento dei componenti installati sulla mainboard.Esteticamente risulta molto ben curato, ottime le rifiniture, perfetta la disposizione delle a...
