Cooler Master at the 2025 International CES showed off the new V-Series and V-Lite Series air CPU coolers that are designed to visually resemble engine blocks of performance cars and trucks. These are mainly just fancy top-plates designed to look either like the block hood, or cylinder heads, complete with make-believe air and exhaust manifolds. A common essential design among all cooler models is that they're all single fin-stack tower-type coolers with two fans in push-pull ventilation configuration. The differentiators are the size of the fin-stack, size of the fans, and number of heat pipes.
The series is led by the V10 3DHP, which features a single wide fin-stack that pulls heat from the CPU using no less than ten 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes. There's supposed to be a V8 3DHP that's slightly slimmer, and with eight heat pipes, but we couldn't find it. We instead spotted the V6 3DHP, which is further slim, with six heat pipes, and the smallest cooler of the lot, the V4 3DHP, with four 8 mm-thick heat pipes. Then there's the V-Lite Series. The top plates of these coolers resemble full-hood engine covers in production cars, there's no make-believe manifolds. The V-Lite V6 comes with six heat pipes, and the V4 with four. Both these lack any fancy lighting on the fans, but the top plates have a touch of RGB.
