Cryorig Intros Monster XX Dual Fin-stack CPU Cooler Capable of 300W Thermal Loads
Cryorig today introduced the Monster XX, a premium dual fin-stack (D-type) CPU cooler. The cooler's claim to fame is its thermal capacity of 300 W, rivaling 240 mm AIO CLCs. It measures 120 mm x 133 mm x 159 mm (WxDxH). Its design involves a copper base, from which ten 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes arranged in two rows emerge, and pass through the two aluminium fin-stacks, each with 86 fins. The heatsinks are ventilated by a pair of included 120 mm ARGB-illuminated fans, arranged in a push-pull configuration.
Each of the two included 120 mm fans turns at speeds ranging between 800 and 1,800 RPM, pushing up to 58.47 CFM of airflow at 1.35 mm H₂O of static-pressure, and up to 31.5 dBA of noise. The fan takes in 4-pin PWM for its main function, and 3-pin ARGB for lighting. Among the CPU socket types supported are the new LGA1851, LGA1700, AM5, AM4, and LGA1200/115x. The company didn't reveal pricing.

More like borderline impossible. Maybe it’s just the perspective of the render, but that mounting hardware indeed looks hilariously bad.
Anyway, curious to see how it performs. There are plenty of people who are rabidly convinced that adding MOAR heat-pipes is totally the key to pushing air coolers forward. My bet is that it won’t outperform the usual 40 bucks PA120. If Noctua could barely do it after half a decade and over-engineering the shit out of the G2 I doubt Cryorig stands a chance.
I would love it even more if someone took the effort to design something better instead of the fiddly, flimsy, thin metal brackets.
I would like to se a test of it and se how true are these claims really. Some companies do have a tendency to claim more than it actually can do.
@crazyeyesreaper I know you probably don't have time to test this, but hopefully someday!
