The Polaris 120 high performance heat pipe heatsink marks Swiftech re-entry into the mainstream air-cooling arena.
The lead concept for this product is value: packing the maximum performance and broadest range of utilization in an affordable yet qualitative offering.
Features:
5) 8mm heat pipes – the hottest heat pipes (directly above the CPU) are arranged to receive the maximum amount of air-flow for optimized thermal performance.
Fins form wind tunnels for optimum air-flow, resulting in more efficient use of the fan, therefore better cooling.
Direct-touch base technology provides an optimized transfer of the heat to the pipes.
A single high Power (84CFM) PWM controlled 120mm fan is included:
Being PWM controlled, the fan plugs into the motherboard CPU fan header, and users can either let the motherboard manage the fan speed, or tune it to their own specifications; the speed ranges from 750 to 2500 RPM allowing a wide range of operations: from ultra-quiet all the way to extreme cooling for seriously overclocked processors.
Relatively compact footprint (Width 135 mm x Depth 91 mm x Height 152 mm including fan).
Mounting system includes retention brackets for all popular processors:
Intel Socket 775, 1155, 1156, 1366
AMD Socket 754, 939, 940, F, AM2, AM3
Competitively priced, yet with a broader range of operations compared to other high-end coolers.
