Introduction & Nexus FLC-3000 R2
Today we will compare two completely different approaches to cooling down your processor. First we have the Nexus FLC-3000 R2 cooler which represents the traditional air cooling way to get your processors temperature down. As the competitor we have CoolIT ECO A.L.C which we have reviewed lately. It represents a watercooling setup in the same price range as the Nexus. Let’s have a look to see which one wins!
