2. Computer cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cooling

   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.

3. 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.

4. Air cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_cooling

   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. An example of the former is to add cooling fins to the surface of the object, either by making them

5. Heat sink - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sink

   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 ...

6. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

   This heatsink is designed with the cooling capacity matching the CPU’s TDP. Thermal Design Power (TDP), also known as thermal design point, is the maximum amount of heat that a computer component (like a CPU, GPU or system on a chip) can generate and that its cooling system is designed to dissipate during normal operation.

7. Freezer (computer cooling) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezer_(computer_cooling)

   The Freezer line of coolers is available in different fan speed, cooling capacity and motherboard compatibility [3] to cater the needs of different type of users from HTPC users to enthusiasts and overclockers. The Freezer series CPU coolers are designed to lower the temperature inside your computer to enhance the stability and lifespan of the ...

8. Thermal management (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_management...

   Overclocking has always meant greater cooling needs, and the inherently hotter chips meant more concerns for the enthusiast. Efficient heat sinks are vital to overclocked computer systems because the higher a microprocessor's cooling rate, the faster the computer can operate without instability; generally, faster operation leads to higher ...

9. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

   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 ...
