Kingwin RVT-9225, RVT-12025, and RVT-12025D CPU Coolers
The Test Drive:
Generally, when test driving a car, the little man sitting next to you wont let you really push the car. You cant top 120 miles an hour, or slam it head first into a wall. Generally the dealership doesnt approve of such "tests". But thats essentially what I get to do with these hardware reviews. So I took these little (or not so little, actually) Kingwin coolers for a spin, and did my best to see how well they handle their corners, and how well they take slamming head first into a wall. Metophorically speaking, of course.

Room tempurature is set to 24.5C, give or take. These tests were done by using Prime95 to stress the CPU to load, and were run for 30 minutes. Each test was done three times and averaged together to get the result. I threw in the results from the Scythe Ninja that was in my computer prior to testing these coolers just for comparison. So without further ado, here are our scores!
