     The Lucifer is the very first CPU Cooler we got to test from Deepcool and i have to say that it left us with the best possible impressions. Sure it may not be as good as lets say the brand new NH-D15 by Noctua or even the HR22 by Thermalright (when paired with an 140mm fan) but some would argue that it’s more impressive since in the end we're talking about a single heatsink model paired with a single 140mm fan which is enough for it to compete head on with many dual heatsink coolers. Deepcool has also placed a good amount of weight in the quality department since we didn't find even the slightest issue with the heatsink and the bundled fan. Moving to the noise levels chart well not much to say here aside that it would be nice if Deepcool had paired the Lucifer with a more silent model fan (although it's not really loud we can't say that the 140mm fan is inaudible either).

 

   And then there's also the price tag of the Deepcool Lucifer CPU Cooler that makes things really interesting since it currently retails at around USD55 inside the USA and for 48Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk). Of course not all is perfect and thus you may need to mount the front fan a bit higher to avoid any clearance issues with tall memory modules but that aside the Lucifer is a very tempting proposal by Deepcool. Granted if you're looking for the best possible performance from a CPU Air Cooler and price is of no concern then you'll be better off with the NH-D15 but if you're on a somewhat tight budget and you just want high cooling performance the Lucifer by Deepcool could be your way out and since we really found nothing wrong with it (aside the limited availability in the USA) it gets our Platinum Award.
