| Swiftech Polaris 120 Heat Sink for Intel and AMD |
Product Description & Info
The Polaris 120 high performance heat pipe heatsink marks Swiftech re-entry
into the mainstream air-cooling arena.
The lead concept for this product is value: packing the maximum performance
and broadest range of utilizations in an affordable yet qualitative
offering.
-
(5) 8mm heat pipes – the hottest heat pipes (directly above the
CPU) are arranged to receive the maximum amount of air-flow for
optimized thermal performance.
-
Fins form wind tunnels for optimum air-flow, resulting in more
efficient use of the fan, therefore better cooling.
-
Direct-touch base technology provides an optimized transfer of
the heat to the pipes.
-
A single high Power (84CFM) PWM controlled 120mm fan is
included:
-
Being PWM controlled, the fan plugs into the motherboard CPU
fan header, and users can either let the motherboard manage
the fan speed, or tune it to their own specifications; the
speed ranges from 750 to 2500 RPM allowing a wide range of
operations: from ultra-quiet all the way to extreme cooling
for seriously overclocked processors.
-
Relatively compact footprint (Width 135 mm x Depth 91 mm x
Height 152 mm including fan).
-
Mounting system includes retention brackets for all popular
processors:
-
Intel Socket 775, 1155, 1156, 1366
-
AMD Socket 754, 939, 940, F, AM2, AM3
-
Competitively priced, yet with a broader range of operations
compared to other high-end coolers.

|
The hottest heat pipes (those directly above the
CPU core), receive the most airflow.
|
|
|
|
| The center section of the fins form an enclosure in
front of the fan hub where air flow is at its lowest, and the edges of
the fins are closed. This creates two wind tunnels maximizing
airflow around the heat pipes. The shape of the fins and
central enclosure create a calculated restriction towards the exit to
regulate the air velocity across the entire fin length. |
