Aqua Computers kryoM.2 Micro M.2 SSD Cooler

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/03/2017 08:44 AM | source: | 11 comment(s)

The Aqua Computers kryoM.2 micro is a passive heatsink for M.2 SSDs which is simply clipped onto the SSD with the enclosed stainless steel clips. Before this, the enclosed thermal pad for the front and an isolation sticker for the back must be applied.

The cooling performance is sufficient for many applications and due to the compact dimensions, the SSD with kryoM.2 micro fits almost all M.2 slots on mainboards. During assembly, the SSD is not subjected to mechanical stress. The clips are slid on from the sides and then clamped onto the edge of the heat sink. The clamp does not touch the edge of the SSD board while doing this.

Key features of the kryoM.2 micro:

Compact design for mounting in almost all motherboard slots for M.2 SSDs
High quality heat sink made of black anodized aluminum with laser engraving
Stainless steel clips for easy and safe assembly
High quality thermal pad included
Sticker for electrical isolation of the clips on the backside of the SSD included

The kryoM.2 micro is available as of now and costs 9.90 Euro. Orders can be already placed in Aqua Computers Webshop.

Yeah, just fire up your Dremel and do it. It won't cause any problems, unlike drilling a new hole in the 980Ti PCB, like that one legendary dude did.

You were right about the layers. I booted the pc while holding a metal screwdriver in the hole to simulate soldering the hole shut. But it just started smoking. The card is F**ked

This is amazing.

The bottom covering just PCB is a copper sticker.
The top part where the heatsink goes is a regular sticker.

If you take the top one off you better remove it carefully and put it on some plastic bag so you can reuse it for later.
