SAPPHIRE klar med VAPOR-X køling til din CPU

SAPPHIRE klar med VAPOR-X køling til din CPU !

Vi så de første billeder og hørte lidt om Sapphires nye satsning tilbage i marts 2012, men nu er Sapphire endelig klar til at melde sig på CPU-kølingsmarkedet med en helt ny CPU køler med deres populære Vapor-X teknologi og skal være i stand til at køle op til 200watt. Køleren er med 4 heatpipes og Dual Fan configuration.

Sapphire oplyser selv følgende omkring CPU-køleren.

“SAPPHIRE Technology, best known for its world leading graphics solutions, has just started shipping its first CPU cooler. Designed for the enthusiast and based on the company's award winning Vapor-X technology, the extremely efficient low-noise cooler features dual fans, a rating of 200 watts and a universal mounting for AMD or Intel CPU types.

Now SAPPHIRE has applied Vapor-X technology in a SAPPHIRE original and exclusive design for its first universal CPU cooler. In a similar configuration to its graphics cards, the vapour chamber is in direct contact with the CPU surface to accelerate the flow of heat away. The heat is then carried away by a multi-heatpipe array and cooling fins.

Final heat dispersion is achieved by two fans, each with aerofoil section blades designed for efficient airflow with low noise, similar to those used on the highly acclaimed SAPPHIRE Dual-X series of graphics cards. The Vapor-X solution results in a high cooling efficiency designed to cater for 200Watts, more than enough even for enthusiasts overclocking the latest CPU types. When operating with lower power requirements, fan speeds can be very low, keeping noise levels to a minimum.

Much attention to detail has been given to the design of the SAPPHIRE Vapor-X CPU Cooler. Its universal mounting kit caters for motherboards designed for all the latest CPU types from both AMD and Intel. When mounted, the overall height of the cooler is designed to fit in a standard ATX chassis, while at the same time allowing the installation of most memory types. The two fans are mounted in a plastic shroud designed to control airflow, and built in blue LEDs contribute to the stylish look and overall feel of the unit.”

"SAPPHIRE is extending its portfolio into areas aligned to its core business of PC graphics," commented Adrian Thompson, SAPPHIRE VP of Marketing. "We are harnessing our expertise in advanced technologies to deliver better performing products for the enthusiast which will then push down into an expanding product line for the mainstream."

Prisen på køleren skulle være i området af  £59 (ca.550kr) og forhandles i første omgang af overclockers.co.uk i Europa.
Hvornår vi ser Vapor-X i dansk retail er der pt ikke nogen melding om.
