Akasa introduced the AK-CC1104EP01, a basic AMD socket AM4-capable CPU cooler targeted at system-integrators that buy processors in trays and want a baseline cooler alternative to AMD's PIB stock coolers, or those who just want a low-cost AM4-capable cooler. The cooler is similar in design to AMD's heat-pipe based stock coolers, in featuring a copper base-plate, from which four 6 mm-thick heat pipes emerge, conveying heat to a dense alumniium fin-stack along the plane of the motherboard, which is then ventilated by a somewhat big 92 mm fan.

The cooler supports not just AM4, but also older AMD sockets, such as AM3(+), AM2(+), and FM2(+). Its fan takes input from a 4-pin PWM connector, spins between 600 to 2,500 RPM, pushing up to 47.68 CFM of air, with a noise output ranging between 17.2-29.5 dBA. The cooler measures about 98 mm x 97 mm x 76.32 mm (WxDxH). It features pre-applied thermal paste. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Each to their own, but i would rather Akasa come up with something similar like their K32....



it does look similar to Intels stock cooler but the frame on the fan actually makes a fair bit of difference over the intel when it actually comes to channeling the air through the fins on the heatsink.

The fins on this this new compact cooler look so tightly packed that im sure airflow will be somewhat heavily restricted.

I could be wrong though

What is the point of making this? The stock Ryzen cooler is fine and most likely better.

What is that, a DOA product? From the looks of it they didn't even bother to benchmark it against the packaged AMD offerings...
