Engine 17 1U Low-Profile CPU Cooler
Built for Intel LGA 1150/1151/1155/1156 processors, Thermaltake Engine 17 1U features a low-profile height of only 17mm, making it an ideal choice for small size desktops. It’s equipped with a metallic (Aluminum Alloy) 60 mm fan, metallic radial fins and a copper base, providing outstanding cooling efficiency and ultra quiet operation. Big clearance will allow you to install high-end RAM on your motherboard.
Low-Profile 17mm Height
Designed with 17mm height, the Engine 17 is the ideal CPU cooling solution for slim and small form factor applications, such as 1U server, HTPC, AIO/PIO PC, POS terminal and book-size / Mini PC.
Unique Metallic (Aluminum Alloy) Structure with Superb Heat Dissipation
Unlike traditional CPU coolers, the Engine 17 features a metallic structure and copper base that provides more fortified and efficient thermal paths for CPU. The metallic fan is designed to directly pull heat from CPU. Especially, the metallic fan base is engineered with small radial gaps that allow heat to be transferred rapidly to the rotating metallic fan. When the metallic fan blades generate cooling airflow, heat will also be transferred to the flowing air by both rotating fan and stationary fan base at the same time.
* Note: Blue color represents lower temperature.
40 Fan Blade Design for Excellent Cooling Performance
Metallic fan with unique 40 blades design is engineered to generate higher airflow passing through the heatsink without sacrificing ultra-silent operation. The metallic blade rotation will create a centrifugal force on ambient air. In the meanwhile, the centrifugal forces will expel hot air so that heat can easily be taken away from the fan blades. Most importantly, this cooling technique can reduce the blade’s noise and vibration because hot air expelled will create a vacuum, and then fresh cooling air will be drawn in the heatsink.
Radial Fin Arrangement
The Engine 17 is specially designed with metallic radial fins to accelerate the thermal transfer process. Especially, the radial arrangement with 119 fin design can minimize the gap between the fan and the fins, thus, hot air can be exhausted more rapidly and efficiently.
Low Noise PWM Fan
The PWM function enables the motherboard to run the fan precisely at its necessary speed. The noise level can reduce to 11dBA. This guarantees ultra-quiet noise level without compromising on the cooling performance.
* Because Engine 17 is using 8-pole motor, the RPM read by Bios is twice of the real RPM.
Non-Interference Cooling Design
The Engine 17 perfectly solves the co-existing problem of high performance RAM and CPU coolers, achieving the best RAM clearance.
