DuOrb CPU cooler, supporting Intel socket LGA775 and AMD socket AM2/AM2+, has extended the twin fan design concept from the previous DuOrb VGA cooler; it has been strongly designed with 6 different heat radiating channels, Blue-Red LED fan lights, two 80mm fans along with the pure copper construction. The 6 independent heat pipes transmitting the CPU heat evenly to the two separated heat radiation area constructed with copper fins and powerful fans that makes cooling exceptionally efficient. The mirror coating copper base also develops perfect heat dissipating contact surface between CPU and the heat sink.

The excellent dual-flow design and wider coverage of the twin fan of DuOrb CPU cooler further utilizes system air flow to cool down surrounding temperatures and dissipate the heat of CPU, VRM, North Bridge, VGA card, and RAM all together. Despite the careful concerns on the cooling performance, many have made strong impression on the unique 8 shaped look of Thermaltake DuOrb series coolers at the first sight. It is not only the patent mechanic shape design that makes the cooler pop out, but the pure copper construction of the heat pipes, radiate fins and the mirror coating base will also add up an extra copper shine to both your system and personal aesthetics.

Features:

Fantastic DuOrb series Design
- Extension of DuOrb Cooler Design, after DuOrb VGA, the DuOrb architecture inspired CPU cooler with 6 different channels.
- Blue-Red LED Lights Fans, two 80mm fans come equipped with LED lights, one with blue and one with red.
- Unique Silent Fan makes at most 21 dBA at fan speed.
Magic Cooling Performance Structure
- Copper Construction, Copper Heat pipe, Fin, and Base, provides maximum heat conductivity and dissipation performance.
- 6 Distinct Designed Heat pipes* remove heat from source via the channels.
- Double-Sided Radiant Heat pipes Penetrating Fins transmit heat evenly and efficiently.
- Mirror Coating Copper Base develops perfect heat dissipating contact surface between CPU and DuOrb.
*A heat pipe is a heat transfer mechanism that can transport the most heat with less difference in temperature.
Smart Thermal Management
- Dual-Flow Design further utilizes system air flow to cool down surrounding temperatures and dissipates the heat of CPU, RAM, VRM, North Bridge, and the back of VGA card. Red-Light Orb cools RAM area and Blue-Light Orb cools CPU surrounding area.
