First look

I have to admit it was awhile ago I personally looked at a Cpu cooler, Coolermaster convinced me to take a look at their V10 cpu cooler though as it is a normal cooler and it also has a TEC built into it. It seems to be big and bulky but I guess it has all the potential to prove to be a good air cpu cooler, we are going to be comparing it vs a well performing Noctua cooler so let´s have a closer look.
