CPU HeatSync® System 

CPU HeatSync® System

System (6) shown

 

Silent, solid-state cooling system for processor. No moving parts to maintain or fail which ensures reliable operation for years. CPU base is precision machined from solid copper for optimum heat transfer from processor chip. Heat-treated and anodized aluminum clamping plates transfer heat to the heatpipes. Heatpipes are custom formed to match your processor socket and motherboard. Wide thermal clamping plates conduct heat into the case.

Note: Heat capacity is determined by the size of the case and the temperature of ambient air around case. The cooling system itself can handle far more heat then the case can dissipate. In ideal room environments with plenty of space around the case, maximum CPU size is 120 watts, we recommended 95 watts for most conditions. If using a fanless power supply use a 65-77w CPU.

Includes:

  • Copper CPU base
  • Precision spring retention system
  • Custom formed heatpipes
  • Thermal clamping plates w/ hardware
