Gelid: Launch of Rev. 2 Tranquillo – CPU Cooler

Press release: Upgraded Tranquillo with 4 Heatpipes and compatible to AMD and Intel’s 775, 1366 & 1155 &1156 socket

Thermal Solutions specialist GELID Solutions unveils the upgraded version of the multi-award winning Tranquillo CPU cooler which is a product of GELID Solutions SILENT product line.

Gelid Rev. 2 Tranquillo

GELID Solutions brings the Tranquillo to the next level. As with the previous edition the Rev. 2 Tranquillo uses 4 power heat pipes and a unique heat pipe constellation to achieve the best in class heat transfer from the CPU core to the aluminum fins. The heat pipe constellation was further optimized to prevent any conflict from any components on the latest mainboards. The new AMD clip enables to install the cooler in four directions (4×90°). Additionally the smaller heat sink was created in a new shape to provide better heat transfer. Both heat sinks were created by using precise software simulation and calculation during the development stage to lower air flow resistance as much as possible.

A silent 120mm fan with the intelligent GELID PWM (Pulse Width Module) control was chosen to compliment the heat sink. The fan blades were optimized to guarantee high airflow while running silently. The intelligent GELID PWM curve keeps the fan silent when no necessary cooling is needed and accelerates the fan speed whenever additional cooling is necessary. The multi-award winning high performance GC-2 thermal compound is already included in the package. Additionally mounting clips for AMD AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+ and for Intel 775, 1366 and latest 1155 &1156 sockets as same as back plates for Intel LGA 775, Core i3,Core i5 and Core i7 boards are all included. The cooler is RoHS and WEEE conform and carries a 5 year warranty.
