  2. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

    Rca (°C/W) = Thermal resistance of the Heat sink, between the case of the CPU and the ambient air. Tc = Maximum allowed temperature of the CPU's case (ensuring full performances). Ta = Maximum expected ambient temperature at the inlet of the Heat sink fan. All these parameters are linked together by the following equation:

  3. Heat sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sink

    Although the pin-fin has 194 cm 2 surface area while the straight-fin has 58 cm 2, the temperature difference between the heat-sink base and the ambient air for the pin fin is 50 °C, but for the straight-fin it was 44 °C, or 6 °C better than the pin fin. Pin fin heat sink performance is significantly better than straight fins when used in ...

  7. Computer fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

    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.

  9. General-purpose computing on graphics processing units

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_computing...

    Because the GPU has access to every draw operation, it can analyze data in these forms quickly, whereas a CPU must poll every pixel or data element much more slowly, as the speed of access between a CPU and its larger pool of random-access memory (or in an even worse case, a hard drive) is slower than GPUs and video cards, which typically ...
