Intel Laminar RH1 Alder Lake-S Stock Cooler Pictured
The upcoming stock coolers for the Intel 12th Generation Core Alder Lake desktop processors were recently uncovered showing the Laminar RH1, Laminar RM1, and Laminar RS1. The Laminar RH1 will be bundled with the 65 W 12th Gen Core i9 desktop series and has recently been pictured showing its full metal design. The RH1 will include integrated LED lighting however it is currently unclear if this will be an RGB setup. This is the second leaked cooler to be pictured after the mid-range RM1 which will be bundled with Core i3, i5, and i7 processors while the RS1 should be included with Pentium and Celeron products. The Alder Lake-S processors featuring these new coolers are expected to launch on January 5th.

It's all plastic made to look like fins for cooling, I sadly believe many will fall for that and think its a much bigger, better cooler than it really is
I'll post previous photos
Look down the very bottom where the fin sizes change, thats the actual heatsink
Same again, you can see the plastic above and outside the actual heatsink
The higher end model with thumb screws appears to be metal of some sort.
You dont get that kind of reflectivity shift from side to edge with Alu
It looks like the original Intel CPU cooler type with a plastic top on it. Looking at specs on the 12400 though it will probably be fine. I did see a CPUz multi score of the 12400 earlier and it matches the 5800x, which is pretty spiff
At least the wraith prism looked awesome (even if it couldnt cool many of the chips quietly)
which be why i saltier than the pacific ocean
How many generations of crappy stock coolers have we survived both from Intel and AMD? ;) This is just another one. With LED and a fancy shroud this time.
