Quiet operation, Good performance for a silent cooler, Large CPU compatibility list, Fairly average price for a cooler of this type, especially with all the crossplatform mounting hardware included
Lacks vibration absorbing fan mounts
GELID has done a wonderful job with the Tranquillo CPU cooler. As the name implies, it did live up to being a silent (and well performing) CPU cooler. I was especially happy to see the broad platform compatibility right out of the box. They may not hav...
While top-end cooling for LGA1366 is somewhat lacking, the Tranquillo is pretty good at cooling LGA1156 and AMD CPUs. It was only 1-2°C off the temperatures of the Titan Fenrir at its low fan speed. Furthermore, the Tranquillo is keenly priced at a l...
Aftermarket heatpipe based coolers come a dime a dozen these days. There's very little new and refreshing about them, still each year we spot new models and brands on the market. That confirms the strong demand of coolers like these and it also acknow...
We really liked Gelid's Tranquillo as the cooler features great design, excellent finishing and multitude of tiny details that although unnoticeable, do a lot to improve the performance. Tranquillo is also one of few cooling solutions that supports alm...

GELID left no stone unturned when designing the Tranquillo. From textured, redesigned fin concept to reality, all based around a mediocre performing fan at best, I have to say GELID really surprised me with the end result. I’m not a huge fan of the...
Silent, Unique looking, Fit and finish, Tower design, Large size, Multisocket compatibility, Bolton heat sink...
Only singlefan capable, Fan clip challenging to install...
As part of Gelid Solutions Silent line-up, the implication is that the Tranquillo will be silent. In that respect, the expectation has been met and exceeded. One of the compliments I can bestow on this cooler, is that my son walked into the room and a...
performance results on most tests, Quiet yet kick arse fan included, Multisocket Intel mounting abilities, Unique fin design, Fluid Dynamic Bearing fan, Very adaptable to numerous situations and noise levels, Excellent price to performance ratio, Copper b...
Less than perfect finishing on the copper base, Capable of mounting only a single fan, AMD installation results in North / South orientation and could interfere with memory slots
After all the dust settled and we got to know the Tranquillo’s strengths and weakness very well, it’s difficult not to come away impressed. Its unique design really does seem to work by funneling air into and over not only the main fin array but...
Good Performance, Competitive MSRP, Easy Installation, Compatible with all recent CPU's
Nothing Major
This is the second GELID Solutions CPU cooler that we've had on the bench here at BCCHardware, and just like the Silent Spirit CPU cooler (full review here), the Tranquillo also scored very well in our testing. The Tranquillo is advertised as having a...
