Some can even keep your processor cool without making a ton of noise. With a robust enough cooling solution, you can even keep running at those high speeds indefinitely or push your processor beyond its factory settings. That means programs and games that can benefit from your processor ramping up to its clock speeds for maximum performance. A good CPU cooler ensures your processor stays cooler for longer, so it can run at its fastest speeds as much as possible. Once it reaches a high enough temperature, it will dial back its performance levels to cool down. You won't need to remove the fan, there's no memory conflict and the process takes less than a minute – you couldn't ask for a simpler installation.As your processor works, it can start to get incredibly hot. Assuming you haven't forgotten to apply some thermal paste (a small tube is supplied) and hook up the fan, it's job done.
These pins are not overly strong but for a single mount or even a few they will be fine. Just like the Intel stock cooler, each arm has a plastic push pin, and these lock directly into the four socket holes. This would be pretty fiddly but equally, the vast majority of customers will be mounting straight to LGA115x. These can be moved to support LGA775 or LGA1366 processors using eight screws in total. Instead, it's fitted with four Intel mounting arms ready for LGA115x sockets. Cooler Master even supplies an extra fan bracket (along with the necessary screws and rubber padding) so you can add a second fan.Įven with its fan the TX3i weighs less than 400g in total so has no need for a backplate. The fan comes pre-attached to the fin tower via an excellent clip-on bracket, which has rubber padding too to limit vibration based noise. The seven blade fan is a PWM one and the 4-pin connector sits at the end of a cable with see-through braid, which matches the translucent blades. That said, you shouldn't rule out overclocking on LGA115x parts, as the latest architectures are efficient enough to safely allow at least some overclocking with virtually any cooler that's not the stock one. The relative lack of metal is of course what helps to keep costs down so low, but also means the cooler would be unsuitable for cooling Intel's most powerful CPUs on the LGA2011 and LGA2011-v3 sockets.
It uses three direct contact 6mm copper heat pipes that feed the aluminium fin stack above. Standing at 136mm tall, it's not truly low profile but will be well suited to a certain selection of micro-ATX and mini-ITX cases that can't support full-size tower coolers.
Back to the TX3i itself and we're looking at a small and basic cooler comprising a single tower and 92mm fan.
