LEPA is working on a closed-loop liquid CPU cooler, which features an "ultra slim" CPU block. Called the HDB120, this closed-loop cooler appears to have its pump located with the radiator, rather than with the block. As a result, its block is no different in form and function, than a DIY CPU water block. It is just 12 mm-thick, with its coolant tubes factory-fitted on its side, rather than on its top. LEPA plans to unveil (and probably demonstrate) the HDB120 at the upcoming Computex 2012 event.

Antec introduced its newest closed-loop liquid cooler for CPUs, the Kühler H2O 920e. A variation of the H20 920, the 920e features stronger fans to ventilate the radiator in push-pull configuration, and higher coolant pressure, to keep up with the high thermal output of socket LGA2011 processors, which it supports out of the box. So the "e" in its model name really just denotes "enhanced [performance]."

The dimensions of the cooler are the same as the H20 920, with 70 x 70 x 25 mm (WxDxH) block, featuring a polished copper base; 120 x 49 x 151 mm radiator (without fans), and 120 x 120 x 25 mm fans (x2). The fans have more aggressive automatic speed profiles, they can spin at speeds as high as 2400 RPM pushing 110 CFM of air, each. The cooler includes sensors, which can be read by an included software, and speeds can be controlled. The retention kit includes support for all modern Intel and AMD sockets, including LGA2011, LGA1155, AM3+, and FM1.

Fans of high-quality PC components are aware of the Japanese brand name Scythe for a long period of time. Scythe is especially famous for high performance CPU coolers and super silent fans among pc enthusiasts. Its Katana series is one of the oldest series, which now receives a major upgrade. Throughout the Katana series its tilted fin and heatsink design was sustained and was a key design-element. Fourth generation of Katana CPU cooler keeps the tilted design in the new and modern fin structure, which increases the overall performance of the aluminum heatsink.

Another advantage of the new design is the option of mounting an additional fan to improve performance or reduce the total fan speed as well as noise level. Supplied fan is able to operate at a speed range between 300 and 2.500 rpm. Hence allows users to utilize the Katana 4 CPU coolers fan speed for silent or preferment operation for overclocked CPUs. Total height of Katana 4 equals to the predecessors 143 mm, which enables a high compatibility to almost every PC case throughout the market. Furthermore total of 3 heatpipes are being adopted from the predecessor. To assure fast heat transfer a copper base plate is being used which is nickel-plated in addition.

A Sapphire-branded CPU cooler was spotted at CeBIT. The unnamed cooler bears a conventional tower-type heatsink design, but sports a fan shroud holding two 120 mm blue LED-lit fans in place. The buzzword here is Vapor Chamber. We already know how Sapphire has been using Vapor Chamber technology on some of its higher-end graphics cards. Sapphire's tower-type cooler is said to incorporate this technology to help transfer heat from the base to the aluminum fin stacks. That, however, doesn't mean the cooler is devoid of heat-pipes. It appears to have over four of them, about 8 mm thick. The source mentions the cooler as having a thermal load capacity of up to 200W.
