Cooler Master launches Gemini II S524 CPU-cooler

Today, almost all high-end processor coolers based on the tower principle, with some copper heatpipes the heat from the base plate transfer to numerous horizontal aluminum cooling fins. These are then cooled by one or two fans, that the hot air directly out of the closet can be expelled. Such a CPU-cooler is particularly effective in the cooling of the processor, but flows there is less fresh air along other heat-producing components such as the power supply for the CPU, chipset and memory.

Who is there concern can also at Cooler Master rightly so, because with the new GeminII S524 brings this company a new processor cooler on the market that also cooling can give to the components surrounding the processor. The GeminII S524 is a development of the old GeminII from 2007, which still worked with two 120 mm ventiloren. The new S524 works in fact according to the same concept, but the extra cooling surface and an improved heat pipe construction even better cooling performance. In addition, the new GeminII S524 what higher, so also memory modules with large heatspreader not in the way. The height difference between the baseplate and heatsink is 47 mm.

The GeminII S524 has one 140 mm PWM fan with sleeve bearing type, who works on a minimum of 800 and up to 1800 revolutions per minute. The air displacement is 34.2 and 77.7 CFM respectively, while the sound production 15.1 and 31.6 dB (A) for, respectively, the lowest and highest speed. The heatsink has dimensions 144 x 144 x 105 millimetres and a weight of only 490 grams, making many reasonable certainty we can say that this cooler will constitute no threat for the tower models of nearly 1 kilogram. The GeminII S524 has a nickel-plated brass base, in which five heatpipes of 6 millimetersthickness are processed.

According to Cooler Master GeminII S524 retrieves the, which is also cooling can give to the components around the processor, a lifetime of 40,000 hours. There are adapters included for the socket LGA 1366/1156/1155/Intel 775 * and the socket FM1/Am2 +/AM3/AM2 +/AM2 from AMD. The GeminII S524 is directly available and the suggested retail price is now also known, which is set at $ 39.99.

* Presence of LGA 775 adapter varies by country, please contact the webshop

Gelid processed seven heatpipes in GX-7 CPU-cooler

With the GX-7 has lined up a processor cooler placed on the market that is equipped with seven heatpipes. Furthermore, the manufacturer the Wing 12 PL Blue fan placed so that the generated heat can be dissipated. The aluminum fins in the middle and a V-shape with the heatpipes cut-outs so that fresh air easier the middle of the cooler can reach and so should make for a better drainage of the heat. Users who want a second fan sites will not experience any problems, the heatsink offers support.

The whole measuring 130 x 65 x 159 mm and weighs including fan 720 grams. In addition to the Wing 12 fan BL Blue Gelid has also GC-2 thermal paste and mounting clip included. The GX-7 is suitable for AMD AM2 +, AM3 (+) and FM1 processors to be placed. Users of an Intel 775, 1366 and 1155 may also make use of the CPU cooler.

The Gelid GX-7 has a suggested retail price of EUR 45, about the price and availability in Netherlands nothing is known.
