GlacialTech UFO V51 CPU Heatsink

Introduction:

Proper cooling is the cornerstone of any PC build. Without it, your machine can be wasted into a heap of smoldering silicon and metal. Luckily there is nothing that says your CPU cooler has to be a boring hunk of metal with a fan on top. GlacialTech puts a new spin on the CPU cooler with its UFOV51. Designed to look like a flying saucer, it adds a new style element to the PC cooling market. So is this cooler all show and no performance, or maybe something out of this world?

GlacialTech’s Take:

Sporting a UFO like design, the UFO V51 coolers are made up of two 92mm ultra silent fans, four heat-pipes with 6mm and 8mm diameter, aluminum fins, long-life sleeve bearings and a stylish plastic encase. Available in 2 versions, UFO 51 Silent and UFO 51 PWM, the latest Glacialtech CPU coolers come with an Intel LGA 775 or AMD (754/939/940/AM2/F) socket and is compatible with Intel Core i7, Intel Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo, Pentium Extreme, Pentium Dual-Core, Pentium D, Pentium 4, Celeron Dual-Core, Celeron D and Celeron; as well as AMD Phenom™, Athlon™ 64 FX, Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual –Core, Opteron™ and Sempron™.

Dual silent fans offering speeds of 800rpm to 2500rpm, four heat pipes and a state-of-art aluminum heat sink maintain excellent air-flow management, keeping the CPU and surrounding components like Memory, VRM and chipsets cool. The light weight design, high performance thermal compound, high quality polish bottom, UFO battleship design and pure copper base are some of the latest innovations incorporated by GlacialTech in this latest CPU cooler product line.
