The whole point of CeBIT was so that companies from around the world could come together and show each other off, or try to do so, with their hardware, and Gelid had some things of its own to display, a cooler being just one of them.
Gelid is displaying the GX-7, its latest high-end CPU cooler at CeBIT. The tower cooler has seven copper heat-pipes, 46 aluminum fins, and is equipped with two Wing 12 120mm fans operating at speeds up to 1500 RPM. Apparently, it has a very high degree of compatibility, being usable on both Intel and AMD central processing units.
To be more specific, Intel LGA 1156, LGA 1155, LGA 1366 and LGA 775 CPUs are supported, as are AM2, AM2+ and AM3 chips from Advanced Micro Devices.
Dubbed GX-7, it boasts a tower design, with a copper base that draws heat out of the chip itself and sends it into the 46 aluminum fins through seven copper heatpipes.
A single Wing 12 fan, with a diameter of 120mm, actually disperses that heat, the air flow quite strong thanks to the rotary speed of 1,500 RPM (rotations per minute).
Regrettably, the GX-7 is not yet ready to ship. A time frame should become known during the second quarter of the ongoing year, 2011.
