From sunny California comes our next contender. SilenX sent us the EFZ-120HA5. The EFZ-120HA5 is a 120mm heatsink equipped with SilenX's own Effizio fan. Usually this would be a pretty straight forward review and it will be but we discovered something that immediately caught our eye. On the packaging of the SilenX EFZ-120HA5 is an additional brand name, PCOOLER. It is pretty confusing to say the least. We will try to dig a little bit deeper into this and see what we can come up with.

At a first look there is nothing that would make this cooler standout as a true innovator, however there are a few concepts that have been brought together here and we will explorer if this feature set is the right mixture and how well they have been implemented and how well they work together. We see the implementation of the H.D.T. design right away combined with dimpled wave pattern cut fins. Driving the heatsink is the SilenX Effizio which promises to be quiet and produce up to 86 CFM. Sounds like a good candidate for our bench.
