Cooler Master Hyper TX3 supports Intel Core i5

Posted on Friday, May 08 2009 @ 12:06 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
Cooler Master has presented a new budget processor cooler, the Hyper TX3. One of the special things about this cooler is that it supports Intel's upcoming LGA1156 processors (Core i5). Additionally, the cooler also comes with mounting tools for the Intel LGA775 and AMD Socket 754/939/940/AM2/AM3 processors.

The Hyper TX3 features three direct contact heatpipes and aluminum fins, which are cooled by up to two 92mm fans. Included with the cooler is a 92mm PWM fan with an airflow or 15.7-54.8CFM and a noise level of as low as 17dBA.
The introduction of Hyper TX3 marks another milestone with Cooler Master’s first-ever full compatibility with Intel LGA 1156 and previous socket types. The Hyper TX3 also brings back the original Direct Contact heat-pipe design from Cooler Master.

Versatility
The universal design of Hyper TX3 ensures compatibility with all Intel Sockets LGA 775/1156 and AMD Sockets 754/939/940/AM2/AM3. TX3 also features easy-to-swap fans using clips (clips for 2nd fan are included) for convenient installation.

Direct Contact Heat-pipes
Cooler Master incorporates the concept of Direct Contact heat-pipes into Hyper TX3. Three heat-pipes thrust through the base and create seamless contact between CPU surface and cooler for efficient heat dissipation.

Dual Fan Enforced Design
Hyper TX3 is compatible with up to two clip-on 92mm PWM fans to fortify the cooling performance. The new PWM fan with wide RPM range is designed with distinguished blade shape and anti-vibration rubber pads around the edges. Hyper TX3 is also a silent CPU cooler at only 17dBA under minimum speed.
The Cooler Master Hyper TX 3 cooler will be available for $19.99.
