Thermaltake Volcano 12 released

TAIPEI, TW- Thermaltake Technology Inc., has introduced a new breed of ultra high performance heat sink fan cooler designed specifically for maximum cooling: Volcano 12. The latest Volcano Series offering from Thermaltake is based on high-density-fin technology code named Opti-Fin, which will dramatically decrease the overall weight of the heat sink while increasing the surface area available for far more effective heat dissipation.

Volcano 12 has a total of 66 fins, a 61% increase in fins compared with the previous solution, which also contributes to greater surface area.

Equipped with a unique "triple-blade" fan, it is able to provide 26.50CFM at 2000RPM and an incredible 72.92CFM at only 5500RPM. This is all accomplished while keeping the noise level within the range of 21dBA ~ 48dBA. Maximum air pressure gain is the major advantage from the application of "triple-blade" fan: 3.29mmH2O at 2000rpm and 9.06mmH2O at 5500RPM.

Through supplied 3.5" Drive Bay Controller or PCI Slot Controller, users are able to control the fan speed manually according to the working environment. Or by employing the Automatic Temperature Control feature, Volcano 12 is capable of adjusting its own fan speed according to CPU temperature.
