The Return Of The Anime Girl As An Optional Decorative Top Plate
The Valkyrie Vind SL125 sports a slightly oversized 120 x 120 x 25mm fan, though thankfully the cooler’s height is 158mm in total making it compatible with a large variety of cases. The Vind SL125 also ships with two decorative top plates, one with Valkyrie logo on a black or white background depending on which colour of cooler you purchased, and one bearing art reminiscent of graphics cards of old. There is also a fair amount of RGB you can enable, if that is your jam.
As for the performance, TechPowerUp found it lacklustre overall and especially on their AMD test bed. The price and noise produced by the Vind SL125 also failed to impress. However the overall look is impressive, if you like the style, and a five year warranty is quite impressive compared to the competition. If you have a system that prioritizes good looks over extremely high frequencies this review is worth taking a peek at.
