Coolink introduced the Corator DS, this new heatsink features four 8mm direct-touch heatpipes, a dual-fin stack design and a 120mm PWM fan. The cooler supports all recent AMD and Intel platforms, it should be available in retail stores for around 49.90EUR ($59.90).
Featuring Coolink's exclusive Gapless Direct Touch (GDT) technology that allows for
an all copper contact area, the Corator DS brings the concept of direct contact
cooling to the next level by further improving heat transfer. Four large 8mm
heatpipes, a dual fin stack design and a PWM controlled SWiF2 120mm fan are among the
features that enable the Corator DS to achieve an optimal balance between outstanding
cooling performance and quiet operation.
“True to our vision of innovating instead of following, we worked hard to strengthen
the advantages of direct contact cooling and to eliminate its drawbacks “, explains
Timothy Chu, Coolink CEO. “Thus we’re proud to introduce the Corator DS today, which
is our first product based on Coolink's exclusive GDT-technology. Its innovative
contact surface in combination with the other features allows us to offer a complete
high-performance cooling solution at an attractive price point“.
Coolink's exclusive GDT-technology gives the Corator DS a gapless all copper contact
area to ensure superior heat transfer and even spreading of the thermal compound for
excellent cooling performance with high-end processors or in overclocked environments.
Featuring wider fin spacing on the first of its two fin stacks, the Corator’s
asymmetrical dual stack design was fine-tuned for maximum airflow efficiency and
quiet operation in combination with the supplied SWiF2-120P fan. Altogether, the
Corator’s 70 fins provide a surface area of more than 7500cm² for optimal heat
dissipation.
The included fan is part of Coolink’s renowned and awarded SWiF2 series, featuring a
high-performance hydro-dynamic bearing for outstanding durability and superb running
smoothness as well as an innovative 11-blade impeller design that provides excellent
airflow, especially at low fan speeds.
Thanks to the support of PWM, the SWiF2-120P fan can be controlled by the mainboard
according to the current CPU temperatures and thus remains whisper quiet at typical
usage, unleashing its full power only when really needed.
The package is completed by the new SecuFirm™ 2 mounting system for AMD (AM2(+) &
AM3) and Intel (LGA775, LGA1156 & LGA1366) as well as a tube of Coolink's high-end
Chillaramic thermal compound, making the Corator DS the ideal solution for everyone
looking for excellent cooling performance at reasonable costs.
