My New Toy~~

It's been awhile since my last post here.
Now it is time to post something out but not about outings or eatings...
It's about my new toy. Lol.

This one is called Sunbeam Core Contact Freezer.
Basically it's a CPU cooler. The one that attached to your processor.
As you all know, our processor fan is small because it's the original fan and for the home and business use.

Well, some people in IT world likes overclocking. In another word, it is called Tuning.
Just like how mechanics tune the car for better performance. But this one is tune the PC =)
I wouldn't say both terms are the same but at least it's a similar example.
It's not easy to overclock a PC. The risk are there.
Either you can cause the processor to overheat and died or you can make your motherboards components to blow. Well, not the explode. Just burnt.
Ok. Straight to the point.

As you can see, the cooler is measured as for 125mmX104mmX155mm.
It comes with a 12cm that is self controlled by a tuner. It can go as low as 1,000rpm or as high as 2,000rpm which rated at 20db sound.
It's compatible with neither AMD or Intel. Which makes it a favourite for most PC overclockers.

The cooler itself

There's 4 heatpipes at each side which makes it 8 heatpipes in total. And not to mention that there's a direct touch on the processor which allows it transfer the heat efficiently.

It's not easy to install the the cooler.
Even though I haven't install it yet, I managed to feel the sharpness of those fins.

Well, will do some more posting with the temperature picture soon and the installed picture.

In the mean time, this is my very 1st PC image. Haha.
