Features and Specifications

It’s been awhile since we have reviewed an AMD CPU cooler so when Asus sent over their new Chilly Vent Lux it was time to break out our trusty Athlon 64 test bed.  The Chilly Vent Lux is a compact, quiet cooling solution designed specifically for AMD processors.  This new cooler features a large copper base, dual heatpipes, and high-density aluminum fins fitted with a quiet, low-speed fan.

 

 

Main Features:

• Supports AMD Athlon 64, FX, and dual-core processors
• Compact, light weight design (382g)
• Integrated heatpipe technology
• Downward airflow to help cool CPU socket area
• Tunnel fan frame helps maximize cooling efficiency
• High-density aluminum fin array
• Quiet, 92mm fan pre-installed
• Easy, tool-less installation

The Asus Chilly Vent Lux HSF comes securely packed inside a colorfully printed, pyramid shaped, retail box, along with everything needed to install the cooler on most any modern AMD platform.
