Coolink ChipChilla Chipset Cooler Review

Conclusion

Good price, good performance, easy installation; any of these things are adjectives that you could use when describing the ChipChilla. We also like the fact that this cooler has several easy mounting options. Without a doubt, when you take everything into account the ChipChilla is reasonably priced and performs very well and it is extremely easy to install yet this still somehow fails to convey how good a unit this little thing really is. The funny thing is if forced to just pick two words to describe it they wouldn’t be any of the above, they would be: Good Investment. In the end all the other pros about this unit are nice little perks that make the ChipChilla a great unit to own. However when it all boils down to it, I would trust this chipset cooler to keep anyone's hot running board from frying itself and that is the highest acclaim that I can bestow on any piece of kit.

With a price that is less than its passive competition, and its great performance the ChipChilla easily qualifies as a Damn Good Value. With all that being said there is always room for improvement and I would really have liked to have seen the ChipChilla have dual heatpipes instead of the single one it has, that and would it have been so hard to allow it to accept two fans? If you expect this unit to perform miracles or want even better performance than maybe it is time to strongly consider water cooling as that is really the only option left if the ChipChilla isn't good enough for you.


Pros:

- Quiet fan
- Mounting kit includes both tension and pushpin
- Easy Installation
- Price

Cons:

- Only accepts one fan
