SilverStone Unveils an AIO Cooler with 160 mm Fan

SilverStone unveiled an AIO liquid CPU cooler with a fascinating 180 mm x 200 mm radiator, and the largest fan we've seen on an AIO cooler, at 160 mm with 15 mm thickness, the Tundra TD05. The idea behind this contraption is to offer cooling comparable to a 240 mm x 120 mm radiator, with a single fan that spins at moderate speeds. This cooler could be ideal for cases with large 160-200 mm fan vents along the side-panels. We doubt you'll come across a case with front/top panels with such big vents.

SilverStone Intros Argon Series AR07 and AR08 CPU Coolers

SilverStone made additions to its Argon line of CPU coolers, with the new AR07 and AR08. The larger AR07 measures 140mm (W) x 50mm (D) x 159mm (H), including fan. Its heatsink weighs in at 453 g. Its rather contemporary design involves an aluminium fin-stack with a wavy "diamond edge" patterned fins that are designed to increase air-flow/turbulence, and with it heat dissipation, allowing SilverStone to keep fan-speeds and noise low. Three 8 mm-thick copper heat pipes draw heat directly from the CPU, to the fin-stack. The bundled 140 mm spinner does 800-1,500 RPM, pushing up to 93 CFM of air. The cooler supports all modern CPU socket types, including LGA2011v3, LGA115x, AM3+, and FM2+.

Next up, is the smaller AR08. This cooler is much smaller than the AR07, measuring 92mm (W) x 50mm (D) x 134mm (H) with fan, and weighing in at 285 g without fan. While it retains the aluminium fin-stack design elements from its larger sibling, including its three copper heat pipes that make direct contact with the CPU, it relies on a much smaller 92 mm spinner that does 1,500 to 2,800 RPM, pushing up to 49.5 CFM of air. The cooler still supports all modern CPU socket types, including LGA2011v3, LGA115x, AM3+, and FM2+. SilverStone didn't detail pricing.

SilverStone Ready with a 700-Watt SFX-L Power Supply

SilverStone is flexing its engineering muscle, to woo the compact gaming PC community that the SFX-L form-factor of power supplies have arrived, and ready for multi-GPU. SFX-L is slightly bigger than SFX but significantly smaller than ATX. The company is ready with a 700-Watt PSU in the SFX-L form-factor. Part of the company's new line of SFX-L category with the SFX series, the lineup will be led by the 700W SX700-LPT, and possibly followed by lower wattage models in the future. The company pioneered this form-factor with the 500W SX500-LG, earlier this January. The new PSUs will likely have enough juice and straws for gaming PC builds with up to two graphics cards. The SX700-LPT will boast 80 Plus Platinum efficiency ratings and the company is expected to show them off at Computex 2015, this June

SilverStone Announces SX500-LG Power Supply

For small form factor enthusiasts, the standard SFX power supply form factor has excellent combination of size, power, and affordability. At 100mm deep, however, the standard SFX PSU is also limited in fan size to 80mm. While advances in engineering and components have made modern high-end SFX PSUs quieter than ever, there is still inherent limitation with 80mm fan's ability to dissipate heat at maximum loading conditions while maintaining satisfactory noise profile for users sensitive to higher-pitch sounds. With this in mind, SilverStone has released a "lengthened" variation of the SFX form factor called, SFX-L. With 30mm of added depth, a SFX-L power supply has enough room to fit a 120mm fan, thus its maximum load noise can be not only lower in intensity (via slower fan speed), but also lower in pitch (due to larger fan size).

The first model to debut in the SFX-L will be the SX500-LG, a 500W model that includes all features available from top of the line SFX SilverStone PSUs such as 80 PLUS Gold efficiency, modular flexible flat cables, and semi-fanless capability. An ATX adapter bracket is included as well to enable users to install this PSU into any small or even larger cases that do not have SFX mounting holes.
