Design Concept:
The Tornado is designed to bring the features of top-notch CPU coolers to the mass market. It uses a constellation of the advanced copper-based heatsink with 4 Nickel-plated power heat pipes and the 120mm silent fan with Smart PWM to deliver best-in-class cooling performance. Compact size and lightweight design both ensure it is broadly compatible to the most tower cases in the market. Full support of TDP 160W makes the Tornado a perfect solution for gaming computers and business workstations.
4 Nickel-Plated power heat pipes serve to optimize heat transfer within the heatsink elements.
Advanced Copper-Based Heatsink delivers improved cooling performance.
120mm Smart PWM Fan provides efficient air flow distribution and keeps silent operation.
High Compatibility Design fits the most of Tower case and Desktop chassis.
Enhanced Mounting Kit facilitates installation and broadens CPU support.
TDP 160W Support ensures the best CPU performance in games and business apps.
The cooler is RoHS and WEEE conform and carries a 2 year warranty.
