The carton

In the carton are the already ready assembled coolers an adapter in order to attach both air fans to the motherboard, instructions and a sticker that is enclosed in each of global Win coolers.

The cooler of the side; one can also use this cooler beautifully to see the two air fans and their mounting brackets as well as the very good clip that is fastened at every 3 noses of the sockel thus if the medial nose of the sockel is broken.

Ingenious is this instep screw, along with which one can assemble the radiator whole simple as well without tool. For that purpose one hangs simple both brackets whole loose on the base and tightens the screw slowly, thereby sits the radiator real very well, although he is not along with on the subject of 400 g the easiest.

Here one sees how simple the fans only along with metal brackets on the cool body are fastened. Should an air fan once break needed one also here the do not replace any tool.

Unfortunately a pad sticks on the ground hotplate again that one should like always replaced with Thermal Compound best the pad with Spiritus or turpentine is removed.

Innovatek uses the brilliant clamp bolt with which one can that one of cool solid screws do, the almost same system for your water coolers like the Rev.3 that belongs to the best mounting brackets that there are.

Conclusion

The TAK 58 is a very good and quiet cooler. To the overclocking, he is not unconditionally suitable and 2000+ should not for faster systems like the AMD be used either, his performance does simply not for this purpose suffice. Who does not have overclocked system and look for a quiet cooler for little money, is with this cooler very well serves. The performance can be increased in this clearly one stronger air fan uses, thereby he becomes, however, fundamentally louder naturally again and there are simply other coolers that are better suitable for it.
