Massive Cooling Potential

1. Extended Heatsinks

Large extended heatsinks increase the surface area of heat dissipation, ensuring even high-end processors can run at full speed.

2. M.2 Shield Frozr

Keeps M.2 SSDs safe while preventing throttling, making them run faster.

3. Heavy Plated VRM Heatsink

The VRM heatsink covers the upper MOS and helps with overall heat dissipation.

4. 7W/mK Thermal Pad

High quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and extra choke thermal pads ensures all cores run at their maximum performance.
