The introduction of the Hyper TX3 brings Cooler Masters first-ever full compatibility with Intel LGA 1156 and previous socket types. The Hyper TX3 also brings back the original Direct Contact heat-pipe design from Cooler Master.
Versatility
The universal design of the Hyper TX3 ensures compatibility with all Intel Sockets LGA 775/1156 and AMD Sockets 754/939/940/AM2/AM3. TX3 also features easy-to-swap fans using clips (clips for 2nd fan are included) for convenient installation.
Direct Contact Heat-pipes
Cooler Master incorporates the concept of Direct Contact heat-pipes into the Hyper TX3. Three heat-pipes thrust through the base and create seamless contact between CPU surface and cooler for efficient heat dissipation.
Dual Fan Enforced Design
The Hyper TX3 is compatible with up to two clip-on 92mm PWM fans to fortify cooling performance. The new PWM fan with wide RPM range is designed with distinguished blade shape and anti-vibration rubber pads around the edges. The Hyper TX3 is also a silent CPU cooler at only 17dBA under minimum speed.
Okay let's move onward to the photo-shoot.
Cooler Master just released within the CM STORM line of products the Sentinel ZERO-G, an updated version of the last generation product, that TBH I still use. The Sentinel ZERO-G offers everything its older brother already has, but is tweaked, optimized and comes with a few surprises. We again spot the cute little OLED screen, adjustable weight system, superduper link braided 2M chord, and upgrade to 128kb of memory and yeah, it is just a really nice upgrade to what was previously launched.
CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 review
We test the new CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 CPU cooler. Though the cooler will not be high-end performance wise, it can still manage the latest Core 2 Duo and Quad processors really well, and sure, overclocked as well. This new TX3 also supports the upcoming Core i5 processors from Intel based on Socket LGA 1156. Typically this would not be a massively interesting release of course, however... with a sales price of only 14.95 EUR/USD let's face it... the dynamic certainly changes for the better.
CoolerMaster Aquagate MAX review CPU liquid cooling
A test on the CoolerMaster Aquagate MAX. This system is designed to be used inside your computer case for a completely self-contained system. If you are looking for a liquid cooling system to use for your performance computer the Cooler Master Aquagate Max may be just what you need. Dual 1200mm radiator, excellent looking reservoir and 400 liter/h pump, nice thick tubing and a very glossy water-block. A very interesting fact is .. it's not very expensive.
CoolerMaster Cosmos S review
CoolerMaster today introduced a new PC case/chassis updated from their Cosmos line of products. This unit is based on a standard Cosmos 1000 with some attention-grabbing new modifications targeted at the high-end and enthusiast consumer with a diminutive amount of money to spare. It's huge, it's profound, it's impressive, it's striking and it's called the Cosmos S; with the S for Sport.
