Full-tower computer cases may contain multiple cooling fans. At the top of the case is a fan controller. Fan control is the management of the rotational speed of an electric fan. In computers, various types of computer fans are used to provide adequate cooling, and different fan control mechanisms balance their cooling capacities and noise they ...
A finned air cooled heatsink with fan clipped onto a CPU, with a smaller passive heatsink without fan in the background A 3-fan heatsink mounted on a video card to maximize cooling efficiency of the GPU and surrounding components Commodore 128DCR computer's switch-mode power supply, with a user-installed 60 mm cooling fan. Vertical aluminium ...
A small blower fan is used to direct air across a laptop computer's CPU cooler. A case fan may be mounted on a radiator attached to the case, simultaneously operating to cool a liquid cooling device's working fluid and to ventilate the case. In laptops, a single blower fan often cools a heat sink connected to both CPU and GPU using heat pipes.
A Cooler Master computer heat sink has many heat pipes. CPU cooler Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT installed into the computer case. Air cooling is a method of dissipating heat. It works by expanding the surface area or increasing the flow of air over the object to be cooled, or both.
To the right is a smaller heat sink cooling another integrated circuit of the motherboard. Typical heatsink-fan combination found on a consumer laptop. The heatpipes which contain a working fluid make direct contact with the CPU and GPU, conducting heat away from the component and transferring it to the fin-stack mounted on the exhaust port of ...
A radiator is more efficient than a standard CPU or GPU heatsink/air cooler at removing heat because it has a much larger surface area. Installation of a water block is also similar to that of a heatsink, with a thermal pad or thermal grease placed between it and the device being cooled to aid in heat conduction.

Marshmallow's family has been documenting all of her firsts on her TikTok channel @marshmallowthecorgi, but her first time discovering Christmas ornaments is a fan-favorite.
A riskier modification is installing hard drive windows which show the platters and mechanism, which must be done in a clean room without significant dust. Few people have attempted it and results seem to vary. [citation needed] Some hard drives, including the WD Raptor, now come with a window as standard. A computer with an LED fan
