Vapor Chamber Air Coolers

The Assassin IV VC from DeepCool is an industry-leading air cooler designed with a vapor chamber at its base, which is a critical feature that enhances its heat transfer capabilities. The vapor chamber allows for more efficient thermal management by evenly distributing heat across the surface of the cooler, which is then dissipated by the heat pipes and fins. This design enables the Assassin IV VC to handle CPUs with thermal design power (TDP) ratings of up to 300 watts. The inclusion of a vapor chamber is a notable improvement over traditional air coolers, which typically rely solely on heat pipes to transfer heat away from the CPU.

The Assassin IV VC boasts seven heat pipes that work in conjunction with the vapor chamber to offer superior cooling performance. It is equipped with newly designed 120 and 140mm fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) fans, which contribute to its quiet operation while maintaining effective airflow. The cooler’s overall dimensions are 144×147×164 mm (L×W×H), and it supports a wide range of CPU sockets, including the latest from both Intel and AMD, making it a versatile option for various builds. The Assassin IV VC’s design not only prioritizes cooling efficiency but also ensures full RAM compatibility, which is an important consideration for users with high-density memory setups.
