Verdict
As we draw close to yet another cooler from Raijintek, I can’t help but have a profound respect for this new company. Time and time again, they have proven to produce very decent and reliable cooling solutions and the THEMIS Evo is yet another example of it. Like any product out there it’s not without its flaws. As we mentioned before it’s a bit bulky so installation can be tricky on certain instances. While the fan is not that loud it certainly isn’t the quietest either. Nevertheless at a retail price of just $40 you really can’t be that choosy and from a price to performance ratio you’re certainly looking at a bargain to replace your existing stock cooler.
The THEMIS Evo can handle moderate levels of overclocking however you’d have to opt for something with more grunt if you’re looking that perfect overclocking companion. Overall however we’re happy with the performance of the THEMIS Evo and certainly recommend it to anyone looking for an upgrade from your stock cooler.
