Cooler Master presented a new concept cooler at CES, which aims to ensure better temperatures for graphics cards. It is clearly a universal radiator cover equipped with two 120mm fans. The Cooler Master GPU cooler does not require replacing the graphics card heatsink.
The cooling performance of a graphics card cooler is highly dependent on the fan used. They rise accordingly GPU temperature Dramatic as soon as a devotee gives up the ghost or cannot develop his full potential. However, most people are reluctant to replace the entire graphics card just because a fan breaks. To avoid this situation, Cooler Master plans to introduce a universally applicable cooler attachment – compatible with virtually every card and every custom design.
Cooler Master “Project GPU Cooler”
The whole thing is called “Project VGA Cooler” and it’s a frame and consists Two Mobius fans in 120 mm format Together, according to the manufacturer, the frame and fan can be placed directly into the existing heat sink. After all, most heat sinks on current graphics cards are already relatively heavy and powerful, which means replacing them doesn’t make much sense.
So removing the old cover and unplugging the fan is enough. However, depending on the custom model, this may involve a little extra work. At least with the Asus TUF gaming models, replacement seems relatively easy, as Cooler Master demonstrated in its setup at CES. However, it is not yet clear how Mobius’ fans are connected. Fans are probably driven by one External controller supplied and regulated. However, there may also be adapters that can be used to connect fans directly to the GPU board.
This means graphics cards are getting significantly larger
According to Cooler Master, the cooling solution is designed to be quieter and more efficient than most stock coolers. With “Project VGA Cooler” you can turn your graphics card into a 4-slot monster, which requires enough space in the case first. It is expected that as part of the cooling solution Computex 2024 will be launched. There will be a white and a gray version at launch, with an RGB version also in the works. The price of the whole thing should be about the same 40 US-Dollars Start, although fans will probably have to buy separately.
The cooler isn’t Master’s first graphics card
This is not the first time that Cooler Master has developed a cooler for high-end graphics cards During Computex 2023, we saw the manufacturer’s first graphics card that used a massive Cooler Master cooler. This was the one PNY RTX 4090Which, of course, never came to market.
