To cater to enthusiasts who enjoy DIY and assembling their own PCs, ASUS has announced the Triton Series of CPU Coolers - the Triton 70 and Triton 75. These two models incorporate innovative features that include high-density fins, dynamic fan speed control (Triton 70 only) and pure copper heat pipes that delivers efficient heat dissipation for the latest quad-core processors. With their lightweight and compact cooler sizes, the Triton series is compatible with a wide range of motherboards and chassis.


AMD and Intel Multiple CPU Support
The Triton series of CPU coolers support Intel Core 2 Quad / Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Pentium processor family, Intel Pentium 4 HT/Celeron D CPUs, as well as AMD 's Socket AM2/940/939, AthlonTM 64-FX, AthlonTM and SempronTM processors. The Triton 70 also incorporates a PWM function fan that can automatically modulate fan speeds according to the CPU temperature.

Fun with DIY
DIY computing has always had a following in the market, and the Triton CPU coolers are set to aid users who wish to do so. The Triton 70 provides the space for users to shift 8 and 9cm fans, and is also expandable for a second optional fan. The Triton 75 is ASUS' first fan-less designed model that is compatible to all 12cm fans in the market - allowing gamers to freely choose any 12cm fan to suit their requirements. With such versatility, performance and noiselessness are all at the users' control.

Easy Installation
Innovative assembly with specially designed push pins and clips make fastening easier than ever before. The Triton Series can also be easily installed by utilizing only 2 simple steps without removing the motherboard from the system.

I just bought the Triton 70 for my Athlon X2 4200+ (939). This heatsink works really well for the price($39 US), but you have to be careful since the fan is exposed. Tie all your cables together so they will never come close to the fan.

I'm using Asus A8N-SLI Premium, and overclocked my 4200+ from 2.2 to 3.0GHz (1.375v). Using Arctic Silver 5.

28c-32c idle
54c max (both cores stressed with Prime95 100% for 24hours)

I used Core Temp and Speedfan to get temp readings. Any temp up to 60c is fine with me, since processor is rated up to 71c max. I am thinking on adding a second fan, just to have as a back up! If one goes out, processor will still be cooled. I like this heatsink!
