SilentiumPC today introduced the Spartan 4 MAX EVO ARGB, a generational update of its Spartan 3 CPU cooler. From the looks of it, the aluminium fin-stack, tower-type heatsink is unchanged from the Spartan 3. Its design involves three 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes making direct contact with the CPU at the base, conveying heat to the fin-stack, which is capped off by a top-plate. What's changed is the fan. A larger Pulsar HP 120 mm fan takes the place of its predecessor's Sigma Pro 100 mm spinner.

The Pulsar HP 120 mm fan included with this cooler features translucent white material across both the fan-frame and the impeller, with bright ARGB LEDs in the impeller hub projecting soft-glow light through both. The fan spins between 250 to 1,600 RPM, with a 50,000-hour rated hydraulic bearing. With the fan in place, the Spartan 4 MAX EVO ARGB measures 143 mm x 124 mm x 71 mm (HxWxD), weighing 497 g. Its designers rate its thermal capacity at 125 W. Among the CPU socket types supported are LGA1200, LGA115x, and AM4. The company didn't reveal pricing.
