    The Genesis performs extremely well. This is no doubt due to the large amount of metal and heat pipes that it has. The decision to make it a hybrid horizontal and vertical cooler was a risky decision, but I think it has paid off. While you are...

    Prolimatech Genesis is undoubtedly an excellent cooler. Yes, it is large. Yes, it is expensive, and in the end it will cost even more because of the fans. But do you know any super-coolers that are small and inexpensive? I don’t, and I doubt it is...

    While we can see Prolimatech’s idea behind the Genesis, the execution not only fails to justify the hype in terms of performance, but brings with it a hatful of unwanted concessions. Not least of these is the size of the cooler, which makes...

    The Genesis is everything we expected from Prolimatech given their history of releasing high performance CPU coolers. This new product complements their growing lineup very well and is an excellent alternative to the Megahalems and Armageddon...

    With the Genesis, Prolimatech continues its short but impressive run of high performance CPU heatsinks. Its cooling proficiency is unmatched, even by other dual fan titans from more established manufacturers like Noctua and Thermalright. It also has...

    With so many massive tower heatsinks on the market, the Prolimatech Genesis is a different approach and design of air cooling solutions. We like the fact that the "L" shaped design extends over the DIMM slots providing more air circulation and cooling...
