CPU cooler

The CPU radiator is the core of the computer thermal management system. Its function is to efficiently conduct and discharge the heat generated by the processor to ensure that the CPU runs within a safe temperature range. According to the different heat dissipation principles, it is mainly divided into two categories: air-cooled radiators and water-cooled radiators, and is supplemented by software optimization tools (such as CPUCool) to achieve intelligent regulation.

Air-cooled radiator:Working principle: The fan drives the air flow to take away the heat on the heat sink.

Core components: Heat sink: Made of aluminum or copper, it accelerates heat conduction by increasing.

the surface area. Fan: divided into 60 type (low wind pressure and high silence), 80 type (balanced air volume), 120 type (high performance), etc. The bearing type (such as hydraulic bearings, magnetic bearings) affects noise and life.

Installation points: Confirm that the radiator height matches the chassis height limit (such as ITX chassis needs ≤150mm). Apply thermal grease evenly (MX-4 or Shin-Etsu 7921 is recommended) to reduce contact thermal resistance.

Water-cooled radiator:

Working principle: Through the circulation system composed of radiator, water pump and cold head, liquid is used to efficiently export heat.

Type: All-in-one water cooling (AIO): closed design, low risk of leakage, suitable for ordinary users (such as NZXT Kraken series). Split water cooling: radiator, water pump and hard pipe need to be assembled by yourself, suitable for overclocking players or customized hosts.

Installation steps: Disassemble the original radiator and clean the residual silicone grease on the CPU surface. Fix the radiator to the top or back of the chassis, and connect the water pump and cold head water pipe. Install the fan and configure PWM speed regulation to balance heat dissipation and noise.

Software auxiliary tool: CPUCool

Function: Real-time monitoring of CPU temperature, fan speed, voltage and other parameters. Support temperature-triggered cooling mode (such as forced frequency reduction when temperature > 70℃). Compatible with AMD and Intel motherboard chipsets (such as SIS, VIA).

Usage tips:Set the fan curve in BIOS to avoid excessive fan noise at low load. Calibrate the temperature sensor regularly to ensure data accuracy.

How to balance heat dissipation performance and noise?

Air cooling solution: choose high-density fins + low-speed fans (such as Noctua NH-D15 with 120mm PWM fans), air volume > 60CFM, noise < 25dB.Water cooling solution: 360mm radiator + dual fans (such as Arctic Liquid Freezer II), using multi-channel circulation to improve heat exchange efficiency.Software optimization: Set temperature thresholds through CPUCool and dynamically adjust fan speed.

Is the radiator compatible with my motherboard and chassis?

Compatibility check: Confirm the radiator height and chassis height limit (such as Corsair 4000D chassis supports ≤165mm air cooling). Check whether the clip supports the CPU slot (such as AM5/LGA 1700).

 How to extend the life of the radiator?

Air cooling: Clean dust every six months and use compressed air to blow the fin gap.Water cooling: Replace the water pump lubricant once a year and check the sealing of the radiator. General advice: Avoid long-term high-load operation. Increase the air intake of the chassis in high-temperature environments.

What cooling parameters should users pay attention to?

Radiator TDP: It needs to be 30% higher than the CPU peak power consumption (such as i9-13900K overclocked to 250W, requiring a 350W TDP radiator).

Number of heat pipes: At least 4 6mm direct-contact heat pipes (such as be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4). Chassis air duct: It is recommended to inlet air from the front and exhaust air from the top/rear to avoid hot air stagnation.
