Fera 3 RGB HE1224 brings highly anticipated RGB illumination while still providing the ultimate blend of compact dimensions, high efficiency at an competitive price. In other words, the versatility that Fera users praised so much. Newly implemented illumination system lights up the fan and the top plate with stunning yet discreet colors and effects. Supporting all major motherboard RGB systems such as ASUS Aura as wells as manual control via the included Nano RGB controller, the Fera RGB is a ready-to-go RGB solution on a budget.

Based on a proven thermal platform, the Fera 3 RGB utilizes an asymmetrical heatsink design with four 6 mm high performance copper heatpipes with HE technology - direct contact with the CPU for fast and efficient heat dissipation. To ensure the cooler is as quiet as it is efficient, it was paired with the Sigma HP RGB 120 mm PWM-controlled fan. Optimized blade design significantly reduces noise while providing sufficient airflow at 1.600 RPM, allowing the cooler to work even with high TDP processors.

XIGMATEK today introduced the Apache Plus, an entry-level top-flow CPU cooler that looks more expensive than it is. Its design involves a radially-projecting anodized aluminium fin-stack that's bunched up at the center to make the base; and ventilated by a custom-design 120 mm fan. This fan features multi-color LEDs (not RGB), takes in 3-pin DC input, spins at around 1,600 RPM, pushing up to 89 CFM of air, with up to 22 dBA noise output. Supporting thermal loads of just up to 95W, the Apache Plus is just a quieter, better-looking replacement for your stock cooler. Measuring 123 mm x 123 mm x 125 mm (LxWxH), it weighs around 275 g. Both LGA115x and AM4 sockets are supported. Expect a sub-$20 price.

The last time Thermalright gave a "Full Copper" twist to one of its bestselling CPU coolers was 10 years ago. The AXP-100 Full Copper sees the coming together of a pure copper fin-stack, six 6 mm exposed copper heat pipes, a copper base for indirect transfer to the heat pipes, and a reddish-orange fan. The height of the heatsink is 44 mm, which interestingly, is less than even that of the AXP-100 RH (reduced height) variant. The heatsink measures 108 mm x 121 mm x 44 mm (WxDxH), weighing 640 g, almost double that of the AXP-100 RH, and about the same as the AXP-100 Muscle. The included TY-100 fan is a 120 mm spinner, with a range of 900 to 2,500 RPM, PWM input, 16 to 44.5 CFM air-flow, and 22 to 30 dBA noise output. Among the sockets supported are LGA2066, LGA115x, and AM4. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Tech Day slides leaked to the web by Kitguru provide a confirmation of how AMD is wiring out the additional two dies on the 24-core and 32-core Ryzen Threadripper 2000-series MCMs on the socket TR4 platform. We had speculated that because the quad-channel DDR4 memory and PCIe interfaces are wired to two diagonally-opposite dies on AMD X399 chipset motherboards; in the interest of backwards compatibility, AMD could wire out memory and PCIe from just two out of four dies on the multi-chip module, and have the two additional dies seek memory and PCIe over the InfinityFabric interfaces.

The obvious trade-offs with this design choice is that latencies to the dies with indirect memory/PCIe access are higher, and that reflects heavily in AMD's own performance figures for comparing the 32-core 2990WX with the 16-core 2950X from the same generation. The 2990WX is "only" up to 64 percent faster than 2950X at Cinebench R15 nT, despite having double the number of cores. To its credit, the 2950X has higher clock-speeds (3.50 GHz nominal with 4.40 GHz boost) than the 2990WX (3.00 GHz nominal with 4.00 GHz boost). The presentation also puts out interesting bits of information such as AMD's own performance numbers showing 10-15 percent performance gains between the 2950X and the 1950X; and performance gains of the 2990WX over Intel Core i9-7980XE.

ID-Cooling introduced the SE-912i, a low-cost tower-type CPU cooler. The cooler comes in two variants based on the color of the fan's LED illumination, SE-912i-R (red) and SE-912i-B (blue). What's being sold here is a very "slim" tower-type cooler (with a thickness of just 63 mm), but it really is just an aluminium fin-stack meant for 92 mm fans, strapped onto a larger 120 mm fan, with a lot of the fan's airflow bypassing the fin-stack, which could be good to check air bleeding from the sides of the fin-stack.

Two 6 mm-thick copper heat-pipes make direct contact with the CPU at an aluminium base. The cooler only supports LGA115x and LGA1366 sockets, with the retention module attached to the base out of the box. The included fan takes in 3-pin power input, spinning at 1,600 RPM at 12V, pushing up to 58.4 CFM of air, with a maximum noise output of 26.4 dBA. Measuring 63 mm x 120 mm x 130 mm (DxWxH, including fan), the cooler weighs about 295 g. It is expected to be priced around $20.

The company didn't reveal pricing.

DeepCool probably intended for its name to read like "frozen," but ended up with the name "Fryzen," which is what I'd call a fried (dead) Ryzen. The GamerStorm Fryzen is a large tower-type CPU air cooler designed for AMD socket TR4. Its 68 mm x 46 mm base offers 100% coverage of the AMD Ryzen Threadripper IHS (integrated heatspreader), although it also supports AM4. It takes advantage of this large nickel-plated copper base to pass six 6 mm heat-pipes through the longer side, such that heat pipes line the width of the aluminium fin-stack, rather than the edges. The fin-stack is capped off by a stylish top-plate with an RGB LED diffuser.

The included 120 mm fan spins between 500 to 1,800 RPM, pushing up to 64 CFM of air, with noise output ranging between 17.8-41.5 dBA. The fan features fluid-dynamic bearing, and an X-shaped RGB LED diffuser along its uniquely shaped frame. With the fan installed the Fryzen measures 124 mm x 81.5 mm x 164.6 mm (WxDxH), with little or no intrusion into the memory slots on either side of the CPU socket. It weighs 1.18 kg. Its various RGB LED diffusers take in standardized addressable RGB LED header input, supporting most software control standards. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Back in 2011, a team of engineers with the Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico, proposed an audacious new chip air-cooling concept called simply the Sandia CPU cooler. Its design involved a chunky metallic fan not just ventilating the cooler, but also dissipating heat by itself, conveyed through a thin layer of conductive lubricant between the fan and the static heatsink below it. The concept itself never made it to commercial production, but Thermaltake brought something closely resembling it to the market in 2016, with the Engine 27. The company is giving this cooler an even smaller sibling, with the new Engine 17. The number in the model name refers to its Z-height of just 17 mm, making it comfortable for 1U builds.

Besides its reduced Z-height, the design is practically unchanged from the Engine 27 - a round, nickel-plated copper base-plate draws heat from the CPU, which is mated with a 60 mm diameter metallic fan that not just dissipates heat by itself, but also passes air through a ring of aluminium fin channels projecting radially. The reduced height means that this cooler can only handle thermal loads of up to 35W TDP. It only supports Intel LGA115x sockets. Despite its weight, the fan spins between 1,500 to 2,500 RPM, pushing about 9 CFM of air, with a noise output ranging between 11 to 23 dBA. Measuring 91.5 mm x 91.5 mm x 17 mm, it weighs 205 g. The company didn't reveal pricing.

The coolers come in three variants based on radiator size, the Oymyakon ZM-EQ120, Oymyakon ZM-EQ240, and Oymyakon ZM-EQ360, capable of handling thermal loads of up to 250W, 350W, and 400W TDP, respectively. The three include Zalman's SharkFin fans with a maximum noise output of 28 dBA, each.

GELID showed off the Sirroco CPU cooler. This tower-type air cooler features a heavy heatsink coupled with an innovative new fan design from the company. It features a tower-type design, but the aluminium fin-stack is slightly offset away from the motherboard's memory area, for more clearance. Six nickel-plated copper heat pipes make indirect contact with the CPU through a copper base, conveying heat through the fin-stack, which is then ventilated by a Radiant D 120 mm spinner. The included fan features a unique new impeller with sawtooth blade edges to act like chevrons and minimize noise output, a double ball-bearing hub, 4-pin PWM control, and RGB LED lighting over 9 diodes (standard 4-pin RGB header). The cooler can handle thermal loads of up to 200W, and should support a variety of modern CPU sockets.

DeepCool today rolled out the Maelstrom 240 RGB all-in-one liquid CPU cooler.

The Japanese cooling expert Scythe extends its product portfolio by a new Top-Flow CPU Cooler model. The new Choten CPU Cooler is able to effectively cool the CPU as well as the surrounding components thanks to the Top-Flow design by pushing the air towards the motherboard. This air circulation has a positive effect on system stability and life span of the components. Great performance along with unrestricted compatibility to high-end memory modules have been among the key factors when designing the Choten. This has been achieved by applying the asymmetric heatsink design combined with high precision manufacturing and high quality materials. The Choten CPU Cooler is bundled with the Scythe Kaze Flex 120 PWM fan and assures an easy fit into the majority of PC chassis thanks to a total height of only 120 millimeters.

Scythe Choten utilizes a total of four high-quality 6 mm copper heatpipes which are connecting the solid copper-baseplate with the fin-stack. The copper parts, such as the baseplate and heatpipes are covered by a layer of nickel, which prevents corrosion and improves the quality further. Aligning the aluminium heatsink parallel to the baseplate has the advantage that the airflow of the attached fan is guided toward the mainboard. In result, all the components surrounding the CPU socket are able to benefit from this air circulation. Outstanding memory module compatibility is achieved thanks to the asymmetric heatsink design as well as the big clearance between the heatsink and the motherboard.
