Abstract: Currently, one of the most competitive computer markets is the CPU cooling and especially the high-powered and more exclusive heat sinks. There are a lot of advantages to having a good CPU cooler, it can allow for a faster stable over clock, or it can kee...
The latest Venom CPU cooler from Akasa may not be much more than an upgrade of the older Nero S model but it does perform a little better and users who care about the appearance of their system will gladly pay the very small price difference. The Nero S i...
Abstract: The Venom certainly is an impressive cooler both in terms of its size and performance even though it is quite noisy at full fan speed. If the fan speed is dictated by the motherboard, though, it becomes much quieter. At £35.99 it is decent value for money when..
Build Quality, Price/Performance Ratio, Dual Fan Solution
Noise Levels, Raw Performance (Regardless Of Price)
Akasa has been around for quite a long time now and they have designed and manufactured quite a few nice products from CPU Coolers and HDD enclosures to PC Cases and Power Supplies so i did have high expectations for the Venom especially since ...

Good performance, Unique looks with the yellow/black theme, Ability to add a second fan, At idle, with PWM enabled, the fan does maintain a fairly quiet noise level
Limited availability on the North American market
Akasa put out to make the Venom the "king of cooling" as their box says, and my time with this cooler has gone to show that they haven't done a bad job of making a mean cooler. It has dashing and bold looks and colours, great cooling ability, and thank...
We were a little surprised when the Venom arrived on our desks, not least because Akasa had recently released a fine high-end, low-noise CPU cooler in the form of the . In comparison the Venom, which costs a couple of quid more than the , offers very l...
Abstract: The Venom is a fancy looking heatsink for people who enjoy colorful designs. The cobra sketch at the top of the heatsink and the UV reactive fan are things you will not see inside most computers. We found no manufacturing imperfections about the Venom cooler. It is very well made, well designed and comes with..
