Kingwin KA-9225 and KA-9227 Heatpipe CPU Coolers
May 14, 2007

Conclusion:

The Kingwin KA-9225 and KA-9227 Heatpipe CPU Coolers don't offer much more than a cosmetic advantage over the stock AMD CPU cooler. The stock AMD cooler does look a little boring, and these Kingwin CPU coolers definitely spice things up.

Each cooler may be very cool looking, but neither did much to improve processor cooling. The 90mm fan included with both Kingwin coolers is pretty noisy while running at 2500RPM and an estimated 31.80dBA, but it does have a max airflow output of 43.45CFM.


The main problem with these coolers isn't the performance, they will do well for those looking for a way to keep their CPU temperature at safe levels while keeping expenses down, too. The lack of a manual or some sort of instructions is the main problem. If you are unfamiliar with the assembly of this type of cooler, the potential for wasted time and mistakes being made is quite high.

A search of PriceGrabber shows that the KA-9225 can be had for about $27, while the KA-9227 will cost you about $1 less. With both coolers coming in under $30, they are both fairly budget conscious and on the low end for pricing when it comes to aftermarket CPU coolers.

Considering the attractive designs, average performance, and below average price tags, the Kingwin KA-9225 and KA-9227 Heatpipe CPU Coolers earn the award of "Good Value".


Pros:

» Attractive designs, very shiny
» Copper base and heat pipes
» Easy to install

Cons:

» No documentation
» Loud fan
» Not a big temperature difference with stock cooler
