Article Title: ASUS Lion Square CPU Cooler ReviewThe ASUS Lion Square is named after the legend of the Sword Lion, which is the emblem of strength, courage and good fortune. The unique design features 8mm diameter heat pipes that originate from the bottom of the cooler for heat conduction and adds to the shield design with the ends of the heatpipes poking through the top of the cooler cover that mimics the shape of the shield. As the legend goes a famous general once led his armies to defeat a group of strong enemies after an invasion.

Later generations believe that this lion-tattoo symbolizes Strength, Courage, and Good Fortune.
