Compact Intel Alder Lake CPU-Cooler for Continuous Operation Designed For Intel Alder LakeThe Alpine 17 is exclusively compatible with Socket LGA1700 and Intel’s latest Alder Lake CPUs. Designed For Continuous OperationThe premium quality of the two ball bearings allows 24/7 continuous operation without compromising performance. Contamination and high temperatures affect this bearing much less than ordinary plain or magnetic bearings. Therefore, the double ball bearing is the perfect choice in working environments where you want to ensure continuous operation with a low failure rate. Easy And Tool-Free InstallationWith the MX-4 already pre-applied, the Alpine 17 can be mounted directly. Thanks to the push pins, installation is a breeze. Additional tools are not needed to mount the cooler. Full Control With Wide RPM RangeThe Alpine 17 features a very wide PWM-controlled speed range. This reduces noise to the minimum while also guaranteeing the highest cooling performance. Improved Cooling Performance Through Innovative Heat Sink DesignThe extra fine cooling fins of the new Alpine are fanned out in a Y-shape. The high thermal conductivity of the aluminium is fully retained in the type of extrusion used. This novel production process makes it possible to produce a high-performance yet very compact radial heat sink. This results in an increase in the surface area of the heat sink, optimization of the airflow and thus an increase in cooling performance.
