Coolermaster Aero 7 Lite
We have reviewed several Aero coolers from Coolermaster and they have all had great test resuslts. Tonite we are having a look at a Lite version of the Aero 7.
Instead of a copper heatsink it has an alimunum one. We are going to have a look how it performs against Coolermasters newcomer Jet 7 which also has tha same cooling technique.
Stay tuned....

Lite version. We can see this on the package already. They decided to skip the plastic version that they usually use.
Also the cooler is in aluminum with a copper core instead of complete copper. This package was nice though it's small and on the back we have the specifications for this cooler.

The box was small but inside we still found the cooler itself with some accessories. The accessories were a floppy drive bracket with a PCI slot bracket. You just have to decided where you want the
fan controller installed to reach it as easy as possible. The cooler looks the same as the Aero7 but its in aluminum therefore a different color.

Same great fan is on this cooler as the rest of the Aero series. As we all know this fan is alot better than the traditional fan if you look at the noise/air ratio.
The specifications said new better clip system. Well I don't have anything to complain about when it comes to that since it was really easy to clip this on. It has some nice holders where you
can push the screwdriver into and not worry about hitting the motherboard with the screwdriver.

Very nice and well made heatsink. On the bottom we found a plastic cover to protect the bottom and to also protect the thermal compound from being smeared out.
Pre-applied thermal paste is good but personally I hate it :) Artic Silver all the way.....
