Welcome the Jonsbo CR-301 Cooler with Vertical Airflow

The Chinese Jonsbo Co. is a pro at highlighting its cooling systems solutions design particulars with the help of extraordinary outward appearance and the backlighting embedded. The novelty, available in a black and white version, weighs 890 g, has the dimensions of 128 × 138 × 135 mm and the 135 W TDP rate.

CR-301 is built on the two-section heatsink with fins perpendicular to the base. Fans blow over а CPU connector area. The contact plate and 6 mm heat pipes are made of copper, and the radiator is manufactured out of aluminium.

Speaking about fans we should note, they are mounted on the heatsink pieces through the use of screws. The PWM adjustable rotary velocity of these 120 × 120 × 25 mm devices lies in the range of 600–1600 rpm. The noise level claimed is 18–25 dBA. On top of everything, fans are backlighted.

The Jonsbo CR-301 supply kit contains the necessary installation hardware for Intel and AMD platforms, a screw key and a portion of thermal grease. The cooler is compatible with the following mother cards and CPUs: LGA775, LGA1150, LGA1151, LGA1155, LGA1156 and FM1, FM2, FM2+, AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, AM4.

In Western Europe this specialty will presumably cost €50–60.
