The Nexus LXM-8200 is a tremendously quiet CPU
cooler for the Intel LGA-775 socket CPU’s. This tower (side
blower) CPU cooler is equipped with two high performance copper heat
pipes with a diameter of 8mm. The cooler has a combination of pure
copper aluminum fins for the best possible dissipation/weight
balance. The PWM-controlled fan has a 10cm diameter rotor to provide
massive airflow all directed directly at the heat-pipes. The RPM has
been set to a maximum of quiet 1500 RPM speed, yet with enough CFM
and static pressure to give your CPU all the necessary cooling it
requires.
The PWM-controlled fan has a fan speed range of
between 700~1500 RPM with a corresponding noise level of just 17 ~
25.5 dB(A). The high-performance characteristics of this cooler
guarantee the lowest possible fan speed (and therefore the quietest
possible operation) for your computer system.
The two U-shaped copper Heat-Pipes with which
the LXM-8200 is equipped have a massive 8mm diameter. This in
contrast with many coolers in the market with only 6mm diameter heat
pipes. This 2mm extra gives the cooler the extra power to cool the
CPU without massive airflow. The LXM-8200 has a PWM controlled fan
with a speed range of between 700~1500 RPM.
