New CPU Cooler for Small-Sized PCs from Thermalright

Thermalright boasts the release of a new CPU cooler AXP-100. The new arrival is targeting small-sized PC systems, featuring 121x105.5x58 mm dimensions. Similar to other items that take responsibility for proper CPU cooling, this model is able to provide an efficient heat extraction from processor surface and its surrounding crucial components. It is compatible with the majority of AMD and Intel sockets to guarantee its universal utilization. Hence, it supports AMD FM1, FM2, AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, and Intel LGA (2011, 1366, 1156, 1155, 775) platforms.

Thermalright decided not to apply the so popular nowadays 'direct contact' technology, implying the direct contact of CPU cover with heat pipes. Instead, the cooler's framework has been given a bit different approach.

Model AXP-100 consists of a copper, nickel-plated base, six copper heat pipes, a set of aluminum ribs located parallel to the motherboard, and an atypical in its nature fan TY-100. The heatpipes spring from the base and pierce the heatsink plates a bit higher than the medium line. The distance between the pipes is equal; their tips feature some ornamental caps.

The implemented fan TY-100 is known to produce from 6 to 45 CFM airflow, due to the adapted rotation. Its rotational speed might be altered from 900 to 2500 RPM and the noise level might achieve 22-30 dB.

Thermalright suggests that pricing will fluctuate within the measures of $60 per unit. Still, the company does not dare voicing the exact release date.
