Thermalright Intros Frost Spirit 140 BLACK V3 CPU Cooler
Thermalright today introduced the Frost Spirit 140 BLACK V3, a variant of the Frost Spirit 140 that the company introduced in 2019. The dual fin-stack cooler has been redone with black anodized aluminium fins, heat-pipes, and a nickel-plated C1100-grade copper base.
The original's design remains largely intact—four 8 mm-thick heat-pipes make indirect contact with the processor over the base, conveying heat to two aluminium fin-stacks, which are ventilated by a combination of a 120 mm "push" fan, and a 140 mm conveyor between the two fin-stacks. Both fans feature fluid-dynamic bearings. The 120 mm TL-C12B turns at 1,500 RPM, pushing up to 66.17 CFM at up to 25.6 dBA noise output. The 140 mm TL-D14B can do 1,500 RPM, handling up to 77.8 CFM of air-flow, at the same 25.6 dBA noise. CPU socket types supported include LGA1200, LGA115x, LGA2066, and AM4. Measuring 140 mm x 146 mm x 158 mm (WxDxH, including fans), the fully assembled cooler can weigh up to 1.28 kg. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Also I remember there was a cooler that had 2 8mm in center and rest was 6mm, I to thought it would perform better but it didn't (I can't remember the cooler or I would link it).
I guess we will see, also are these HP soldered to the fin stack?
Thermalright first used 4x 8mm heatpipes in twin tower design way back in 2007. Thermalright first used it in IFX-14 (2007), then Cogage Arrow (2008) and finally in original Silver Arrow (2009-10) .. and now again in Frost Spirit 140. Frost Spirit 140 has flat fins and offset base. IFX-14, Cogage Arrow and Silver Arrow had centered base and 54 fancy shaped fins and different fans, while Frost Spirit 140 has 58 fins, but same basic twin tower with 4x 8mm heatpipes.
