3. 2. Features • World’s First Triple LED FAN Solution Switching noise eliminated 120mm Triple Fans incorporated for ultra operation in minimized RPM and blue LEDs for cool aesthetics. ※ ‘Switching noise’ is the high frequency harmonic noise that can result from voltage regulation. • Powerful Cooling Performance Optimally designed aluminum fins disperse heat away from the CPU via 6 of high performance composite heatpipe by utilizing I.H.D technology, while the high capacity 120mm Triple fans quickly cool the heatsink for stable operation of high performance CPUs. ※ I.H.D : Interactive Heat pipe transfer Design

4. 2. Features • VFP Dual Heatsink Optimized dual heatsink, applying V.F.P(Variable Fin Profile) technology, maximizes its performance through dual air-intake structure that increase Air Flow. ※ Radiator Surface Area: 9,635 ㎠ ※Noise: 22dBA ±10% (with RC5) 제품 촬영 후 사진삽입 예정 • W-DTH Base As applying W-DTH(Whole-Direct Touch Heatpipes) technology, heatpipes in the Base Cover touch the CPU directly and transfer the CPU’s heat directly to heatpipes, thereby minimizing heat resistance and maximizing cooling performance in a short time. 제품 촬영 후 사진삽입 예정

5. 2. Features • High Performance Composite Heatpipe(Qmax: 350W) By utilizing Composite Heatpipes, the heat transfer capacity enhanced by 50% compared to the ordinary Sintered-type Heatpipes. ※Composite Heatpipe : Featuring a ‘Sintered Metal’ type wick, resulting in outstanding capillary pumping performance, and a high thermal conductive design of ‘Axial Grooves’ which increases the heat transfer rate. 제품 촬영 후 사진삽입 예정 • Versatile Compatibility (S2011 and FM1 Ready) CNPS12X accommodates a broad range of sockets including Intel’s upcoming socket LGA2011 as well as AMD’s sockets. LGA2011/1366/1156/1155/775 FM1/AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2 Moreover, thanks to highly optimized heatsink design, CNPS12X is able to be compatible with a Mid -Tower Case with its width is 180mm or wider. 제품 촬영 후 사진삽입 예정

6. 2. Features • Black-Pearl Nickel Plating The entire heatsink of CNPS12X is plated with ‘Black-Pearl’ Nickel for a long-term corrosion resistance, while the deep “Black-Pearl” tone along with the high intensity Blue LEDs reinforce its powerful aesthetics. 제품 촬영 후 사진삽입 예정 • High Performance Super Thermal Grease ZM-STG2 The included all new high performance thermal grease ZM-STG2 maximizes heat transfer from the CPU to the base of CNPS12X for intensified cooling performance.

11. 7. Q&A • During CPU over-clocking, what is the maximum CPU wattage that CNPS12X can manage? • CNPS12X, with its powerful cooling performance, can effectively cool 350 watts of heat for stable operation of over-clocked high performance CPU’s. • What is the thermal resistance? • The CNPS12X thermal resistance is 0.08℃/W. • * Note: This thermal resistance value was obtained through tests performed on a ‘dummy heater’ and may be different depend on different testing equipments and in different environments. • What are the Minimum/Maximum values for Fan RPM and Noise Level? • [When RC5 connected] • - 850 ~ 1,100RPM ± 10% / Not measurable ~ 22dBA • [When RC5 not connected] • - 950 ~ 1,200RPM ± 10% / Not measurable ~ 24dBA • What is the fan type and lifespan of the fan’s bearings? • CNPS12X incorporates Long-life bearings and has a lifespan of over 50,000 hours.

12. 7. Q&A • What CPUs are supported? All single, dual and quad core CPUs based on Intel socket LGA2011/1155/1156/1366/775 All single, dual and quad core CPUs base on AMD socket FM1/AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2 • What size must the case to be installed? Mid-Tower cases or larger, with case on it’s width must be at least 180mm or greater can be used. ※ CNPS12X ‘s Dimension: 151(L) X 132(W) X 154(H)mm • ※ To use cases with an ‘air guide’, the air guide must be removed. • After long term use, will the heatsink show signs of corrosion? • The CNPS12X’s entire heatsink is ‘Black-Pearl’ nickel plated. Therefore, its powerful aesthetic quality will be maintained without corrosion even after long term use. • What is the difference between the included ZM-STG2 and the ZM-STG1 thermal greases? The newly developed ZM-STG2 is provided in a syringe type applicator without dilution for maximum heat transfer performance and can be used approximately 3 times. ZM-STG1 is available in a brush applicator with a compound to diluting agent ratio of 7:3 for application convenience.

13. 7. Q&A • What is the maximum air flow capacity of the 120mm fan? • The CFM of CNPS12X is 140.45CFM(cubic feet per minute) • ※ 1CFM = 28.317ℓ/mm • What is the RPM of CNPS12X’s Fan respectively? CNPS12X has three fans, the RPM of FAN A(Front), FAN B(Center) and FAN C(Back) are as below. FAN A & B take in air, and FAN C exhaust the inhaled air through the fan in the rear. - FAN A : 1,100rpm[With RC5], 1,200rpm[Without RC5] - FAN B : 1,100rpm[With RC5], 1,200rpm[Without RC5] - FAN C : 850rpm[With RC5], 950rpm[Without RC5] • Should the Resistor(RC5) be connected? • The Resistor included in the product is not required to necessarily connected. • If the Resistor is not connected, the cooling fan runs faster and make a better performance than it is connected. • If you want a quiet environment, please use the Resistor(RC5).
