Feature Details

Extreme Cooling Performance

• Extremely high cooling capacity of 220W TDP supports even overclocked CPUs in compact PCs
• Two powerful nickel-plated aluminum heat sinks
• Six high-performance 6mm heat pipes with aluminum caps carry heat to the optimal location on the cooling fins
• Top-flow layout enables ideal cooling not only for the CPU but also for surrounding components
   

Virtually Inaudible Operation

• Two SilentWings^® 135mm PWM fans featuring:
  • advanced fluid-dynamic bearing with copper core
  • advanced six-pole motor for smoother operation and less turbulence
