Akasa Intros the AK-CC6609EP01 Low-Profile CPU Cooler That's Shorter Than a Puck
With a height of 21.8 mm, the new AK-CC6609EP01 low-profile CPU cooler from Akasa is shorter than an Ice-Hockey puck (which is 25 mm-tall). The cooler supports Socket LGA1700, and Akasa reckons it will go well with 12th Gen Core processors with 35 W processor base power at stock settings. Its design isn't all that different from Intel's stock HSF: an aluminium monoblock heatsink with radially-projecting fins, pulls heat through a nickel-plated copper base. The 75 mm proprietary fan is nestled into the heatsink, and some of its lateral airflow goes through the edges of the heatsink. The fan turns at speeds ranging between 600 to 3,000 RPM, pushing up to 23.45 CFM of airflow, at up to 30.75 dBA noise output. Its hydro-dynamic bearing gives it 40,000 hours life. It measures 87.2 mm x 85.2 mm x 21.8 mm. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Absolute embarrassment. The design teams are monkeys?
Read it once again and come again to attack.
Forget heat pipes and fans that sit dozens of centimeters away from the heat source. Instead, place this fan directly over the chip and call it a day.
Look at the Asus Zenbook - very bad cooling execution and performance - hot and noisy notebook:
Not to mention MSI. With its upside down motherboards :kookoo::kookoo:
It's hilarious that some people here only imagine a world where individual retail gamers and hobbyists are the sole people who use desktop PCs.
My favorite local mom-and-pop computer store sells OEM CPUs, disk drives, and many other parts that don't come in retail packaging. Not everyone shops at Best Buy.
