Posted on Friday, March 01 2013 @ 14:17 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

Xigmatek introduced a third version of its Dark Knight SD1283. Last year the company introduced an all-black model and now the firm presents the Frostbourne Edition, an all-white version of the cooler.

The cooler has three 8mm-thick U-shaped direct-touch heatpipes, an aluminium fin array and a white fan. Retail pricing is expected to be around $50.

The fins feature XIGMATEK's Stealth ceramic coating, which works to increase surface area for heat dissipation. The cooler is designed to handle TDP of up to 160W.

Measuring 120 x 50 x 159 mm (WxDxH) heatsink-only, and weighing 406 g, the Dark Knight SD1283 Frostbourne Edition includes an XOF-F1251 120 mm fan with 4-pin PWM connector. It spins in the range of 800 and 1,400 RPM, pushing up to 60 CFM of air, with a company rated noise output under 16 dBA. The cooler supports nearly all modern client CPU socket types, including Intel LGA2011, LGA1155/LGA1156, LGA775; AMD AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2, and FM2/FM1.
