That's with a single fan setup.

Also a single fan setup.

However, a dual fan setup seems to be the best for noise which neither of those sites tested above.

However, overclockers.com still has the DH15 as quieter in their test vs the other tests.

Might be an interesting cooler for people to check out, the DH15 looks massive and scary to me, so this cooler is more up my alley anyway haha.
 
Looks nice, I may give this a try on my 7850K when it becomes readily available.

i find it unusual that this one radiator, one fan beats a two rad, two fan setup by the same company. maybe time to look at the testbed again.

Ya but it's a nice option for those who need a cooler like this. I ordered the dh15 yesterday. Intel stock cooler is not fun anymore.
Probably should oc my 4770k now that I'm getting a real cooler.

I stopped really paying too much attention to their results when I saw that they were using an open bench to compare air vs aio coolers.
 
in case people wonder what ^this^ means, it's because AIOs physically remove the heat from the case, while air coolers don't. (your chassis fan might help, but the effect is inferior)
