Nyko Xbox One Cooler Fan
06/26/2015
This review is from: Nyko Intercooler Xbox One
Pros:
Nyko has been making console products for a while, they've always been good quality and pretty reliable. The unit itself looks nice, it matches the Xbox One's design and color, it hooks up very easily on the hot air exhaust on the top of the unit.
You can tells it cools very efficiently, it seems to be temperature based as when the system gets hotter the fan will start increasing the RPM. The fan is definitely of better quality than the built-in fan inside of the system.
Easy to install, on top of the exhaust grill, all you have to do is line it up and put pressure from the top to clip it in, on the top side near the back it has a lock handle, which will secure the fan to the system instead of just letting it sit on top of it. You then hook up the USB cable on the back USB ports and you're set.
Cons:
My first and top complaint is this fan will continue to rev up and function even when the system is turned off, this is probably due to the temperature gauge. Even after turning your system off, it will still be hot enough to activate the fan even after a couple of minutes. It will continue to run then stop and run again as it keeps triyng to cool the system. It's nice that the unit is smart and keeps cooling but for people like me which have their systems in their bedroom, it can make trying to sleep a bit more challenging.
The fan itself is loud, this is probably to a higher RPM and a bigger and better fan. I do like the fact it keeps the system very cool, I use a headset so the noise hardly bothers me while I'm actually on the system but it may be a negative for people who likes using speakers/sound systems.
