Key Features
- Full Straight Up Twin Tower Dual Fan Design: Features straight vertical fins with no fastback design to ensure heat is exhausted from the CPU immediately without heat retention in the fin structure
- Adjustable Fan Positioning: The open fin gap below the RAM modules allows users to move the fan up and down to optimize airflow across the fins, and supports swapping with more powerful fans to enhance cooling performance
- Hyper Precision Mounting System VII (H.P.M.S. VII): Easy-to-install mounting system provides optimal contact pressure for the latest CPUs on the market including Intel LGA1700, LGA1151, LGA1851 and AMD AM5, AM4 socket support
- Dual Wonder Tornado 120mm Fans: Two powerful fans spin at 2,000 RPM with optimized 1:15 blade-hub ratio design to minimize deformation, boost air pressure, enhance airflow, and reduce noise with swirled blades for high air pressure and precise cooling
- Quiet Operation Technology: Optimized to achieve the best balance of performance and noise level, equipped with anti-vibration pads that minimize vibration transmission to keep applications at the lowest sound profile
- Six Heat Pipe Configuration: Features six 6mm diameter heat pipes for efficient thermal transfer from the CPU to the dual tower heatsink structure, providing maximum heat dissipation capacity
