Refresh for Intel boxed coolers with non-K Comet Lake processors

Photos shared by chiphell show the new design, and is for non-K model processors solely, these have a tdp of 65W (even 35W for the T series).

The enw cooler looks much better really, with that black design opposed to dull grey of the 'old' stock cooler. You'll spot the traditional design aluminum cooling fins and a central copper baseplate with thermal paste pre-applied. The fan reveals seven blades, but seems to get a thicker shroud is. The Intel logo is dark as opposed to blue. A subtle observation, the 4-pin cable is now sleeved. The installation mechanism still is that old push and pull pin design.

Yeah, you gonna need something bigger than that tiny heatsink.

And man I hate those Intel coolers with socket lockers/screws. Can break them easily.

Prefer AMD stock coolers that use bolts and screws, like normal CPU coolers. Can reuse heatsink without fear of breaking it.

Hilbert, thanks for the information but I would not use one of those even my life depends on it. Well, if I use one of those, my life expectancy will be very short if it caught fire.

They fine for normal stock CPUs. Most office PCs have Intel stock cooler in them and they don't catch on fire. That's a majority of PCs for you.

Someone should test a K model with that new cooler and see how long it can stay above 5GHz with it.
