Enhance airflow within your computer components with Intel® CPU fans and heatsinks. They have a convenient mounting design to fit in a desktop tower and rackmount system. Their rotations per minute vary from 1,000 to 4,000 to meet varying individual cooling demands. You can consider either passive heatsinks with a large surface area for heat conduction or active heatsinks that include a fan to enhance heat draw-off.
A passive heatsink conducts heat away from the computer components without extra computer accessories or processes. It has a large surface area to enhance heat conduction. Additionally, an active Intel processor heatsink fan combines a heatsink with a fan or a liquid system to boost heat transfer. Rifle and liquid coolers have low rotations per minute, so they produce low noise levels, and are good for environments where silence is a requirement. They are easy to integrate into a variety of systems. Aluminum heatsinks are light to minimize stress on the computer components, while copper models work quickly to draw out heat. Users with significant CPU cooling needs can go for fans with a higher heat-pipe count of six or more to provide extra surface area for heat dispersal.
Fans with a speed control feature allow users to enable high, medium or low-speed modes to meet the current demands. High rpm Intel fans with 2,499 to 3,499 rotations per minute have a significant heat dissipation rate to complement the cooling efforts of case fans, helping keep the CPU at the optimal working condition when running heavy or commercial applications. Intel CPU fans and heatsinks with less than 2,499 rpm serve as practical cooling options for well-ventilated environments. Users with a transparent CPU chassis can enjoy LED-enabled fans to match the lighting color with that of other CPU accessories, helping create a cool, visual look.
A C-type Intel air cooling fan has heat fins that connect to one side of a heat-base. The design permits users to stack multiple fans in desktop and tower chassis to improve airflow quality. A U-type Intel CPU cooler has its heat fins parallel, with the lower part of the heat pipes embedded into the heat-base. It allows for dual heat dissipation through the heat pipes for optimal cooling.
Low-profile air coolers have a fan size of 90mm or less to fit in CPUs with minimal space. Vertical mount fans allow users to mount the fans in a vertical arrangement within a tower CPU chassis to enhance the air distribution within the structure. Horizontal mount Intel CPU fans and heatsinks have a compact design that fits in 1U and 2U CPU cabinets. Span on fan brackets add convenience by allowing for the quick mounting and unmounting of a fan.
