Alpenfohn Matterhorn White Edition CPU Cooler Rev. C - 120mm [84000000127]

The basic design of the Matterhorn White Edition follows the award-winning design of the original model, however, has been completely equipped with a white surface coating. With stately 774 grams without fans throwing an impressive value in the battle of material. However, a lot does not help much automatically so that it arrives mainly to an intelligent use of materials. And hereof understand the Alpenfohn engineers undoubtedly a lot.

Six white copper heat pipes are embedded in a copper base also white. Its minimal convex nickel plated base plate for optimum heat transfer. The U-shaped heatpipes end in four rows in the heat sink, which on the one hand, the feed points wide-scale orders and also the airflow leads targeted. This is ensured by the lateral seals, while increasing the stability of the slats. Their asymmetrical layering is the central feature of the Matterhorn construction.

They are the result of two contradictory requirements: Many and thus density fins provide a large heat transfer area and therefore a good cooling capacity, but would seriously impede and therefore require high fan speeds, which in turn would increase the volume unacceptable under normal conditions the air flow. To increase the performance, without the need for high speeds, the blades are located on the air inlet side initially very far apart, so that the air flow has to practically fight only against every other slat.

Then begins in the radiator inside the interposed plate where the negative flow impact considerably lower. This design is ultimately realized such that two tapered fin assemblies enables be slid together. In addition to all the functionality of these complex stratification also acts very nobly. The style is again emphasized by the completely white surface coating, which has been drawn over the entire heatsink.

As a fan Alpenfohn puts in a top-modern representatives of the revised "Wing Boost 2" series, the "S-shape" -Flügelblattgeometrie completely convinced with its PWM connector and the new. On top of Alpenföhn Matterhorn in the White Edition is for all current motherboard sockets from AMD (AM2 / AM2 +, AM3 / AM3 +, FM1 / FM2 / FM2 +) and Intel (775 1150/1155/1156, 1366 2011 2011 v3) compatible and thanks to stable Rückplattenverschraubung easy and safe to install.

Included with the Matterhorn Black Edition still located next to the mounting hardware for all mentioned socket from AMD and Intel, a tube of high performance thermal compound permafrost of Alpenföhn, a 5-volt and a 7-volt power adapter for additional regulation of the fan speed and four Fan terminals, thus increasing the cooling capacity if required, a second fan can be mounted on the heat sink.
