Construction
The Cooler Master
TPC 800
mainly consists of aluminium and copper. The heatpipes go through the copper
base plate. To
transport the heat as efficiently as possible from the CPU there are six
heatpipes which all have a diameter of six millimeters. Furthermore Cooler
Master makes use of their new "Vertical Vaper Chambers" which are basically very
flat heatpipes that offer an improved surface area. Altogether there are 45
aluminium
fins soldered to the heatpipes.
Design
We did not see any manufacturing
mistakes on our sample, and it
seems that it has been well made which means that manufacturing is on a high
level. The heatpipes do have different bending radius, which gives them an
offset regarding the area where the heat is being transferred to the fins.
Furhtermore this cooler comes with a total of 45 fins. You can see a slightly
wedged profile. Furhtermore there are little holes in all fins which allow a
more efficient airflow with less turbulence.
