Installing a cooler on the processor.

Golovna Fan (

) - a device that will ensure cooling of the processor.

As a rule, the cooler is installed on top of the processor itself.

There are different cooler models with different sockets.

There are active and passive coolers.

A primary radiator is called a passive cooler.

The radiator distributes the heat of the object (processor), which cools down, into the central core.

This is due to the mother's immediate physical contact with the object that is cooling.

  • For the process of heat transfer from the processor to the radiator, the contact area requires more space.
  • The side of the radiator that lies next to the processor is called the sole (stand). , From the core, heat passes to the base, then is distributed throughout the entire surface of the radiator and dissipates.
  • To prepare radiator coolers, use various materials.

Aluminum has excellent thermal characteristics, light moisture and is remarkably inexpensive.

Copper is richly beautiful, lower than aluminum conducts heat

It is also more expensive and has a high weight (such models weigh about 1 kg).

Some radiators are built using a combination of copper and aluminum plates.

Fans are divided into two types: radial and axial

  • The axle fans are extremely wide through small dimensions and have good performance/noise performance.

An axial fan is a primary fan with a propeller.

  • The flow of the wind at the new straightening of the wrapping axis.

For radial fans (blowers), the wind flow is straightened at 90 degrees to the motor axis.

In radial fans, instead of a propeller with blades, drums (impellers) spin.

This type of fans will require high power motors.

That's why the blowers are larger in size and more expensive to cost.

Another important characteristic of the fan is the pressure that is felt.

Set it to 0.8 -1.6 W.

The frequency of shovel wrapping is itself an important parameter.

This parameter shows the number of wraps per linen (pro/line).

The larger this parameter is, the more the wind is overextended, and the more noise is generated.

The documentation indicates the amount of wind that is converted into quill (CFM).

  • For the life of all computer fans, a permanent fan is used.

  • Installing a cooler on the processor

The process of installing a cooler on a processor is very simple, since everything is done carefully and without haste.

  • Carefully install the cooler near the processor socket.
  • The fault is due to installations without distortions and destruction.

If you place the cooler on the crystal, do not remove it, do not damage it, do not emboss it, and do not wrap it.

  • If the cooler rubs on a crystal smeared with paste, it may cause areas not covered with paste to appear.
  • This can further lead to system instability and local overheating.
  • If you wanted to remove the cooler after installation, be sure to spread the paste over the crystal again.

When you install the cooler on the processor, you need to secure it.

First, hook the bracket onto the protrusion of the socket at the edge where there is no plastic material.

After all, it’s important to earn money from that land.

It is important to rotate and lock it.

Check that there are no distortions, then check the reliability of the fastening.

If this is the case, open the cooler fastening and remove the peroxide.

After this, secure the cooler again.

Connect the cooler's power socket to the power socket on the motherboard.

This socket is called CPU_FAN.

To operate a cooler, it is necessary to apply a 12V DC voltage to its windings.

Different processors heat up differently.

For example, AMD viruses are more likely than Intel ones.

Since the processor heats up more, a thicker cooler requires more cooling.

  1. Most processors only need the cooler included in the kit.
  2. In some cases, for example, if the processor is in good condition or purchased without a fan, you will have to choose a cooler.
  3. We see the main benefits of a processor cooler:
  4. low thermal resistance and provision of sufficient cooling.
  5. cooler cooler.
  6. It must be installed on more types of processors.
  7. garne cooler fastening.

Guilts are easy to set and easy to remove. This will ensure sufficient cooling of the cache chips.

May be wear-resistant.

When working, it is not necessary to use water vibration.

Great coolers are responsible for their size and are located on all types of motherboards.

Great coolers are responsible for their size and are located on all types of motherboards.

Anyone who has a good cooler will be able to cope well with cooling the processor.

Great coolers are responsible for their size and are located on all types of motherboards.

I'm flying.
Yesterday I installed a product cooler on a processor, socket 775. I tried to change the paste, which resulted in the “legs” of the mounting breaking off.

The cooler has six heat pipes. We bought a used cooler, with a radiator, from an Intel box.

Exactly the same as what he had.


You know, that’s how it sounds to me.
So, having smeared the mouth, I began to push these fasteners into the open mat.

And the stench has gotten so bad there.
Take care of those short legs, what?

These are the radiators (photo below).


Hello everyone.

Yesterday I bought a cooler for the processor, because the old bearing started to make noise. After installing the new cooler, the computer did not turn on, the cooler started up and went silent cyclically, and nothing happened.<4пин, 754-AM2/AM3/FM1, 16дБ, 800-4500об/мин, AI)

The cooler has six heat pipes. Then a black screen with a list of devices appeared from time to time, and as a result I managed to turn on the computer, but the problem with the cooler turned on so much that I thought I’d have to fly right away, judging by this, it was the maximum (or did it get worse?.. I don’t know for sure) ), I turned on the computer and changed the cooler to the old one, but now it started to get angry, then calm down, and when turned on, it was impossible to get angry.,
Having installed a new cooler and manually adjusted the BIOS speed, etc., the computer began to freeze and the cooler stopped turbocharging.
But when the computer is turned on, the computer now sees sounds that have never existed before, and there are no sounds when replacing the cooler with an old one.

If you installed a cooler, didn't you damage the processor on the socket?
Try pulling it out, checking the integrity of the legs, and then inserting it back,
and wipe the operative memory of your feet with a sponge.
Nutrition: Do you need to regularly change the paste after cleaning the cooler?
Vitannya.

The cooler has six heat pipes.

A computer, a Pentium 4, having stood for a long time, the computer itself was cleaned, and the cooler was cleaned - well, it came out without any trouble.

I’m amazed at the moment, the super spec and the computer started to re-engage itself.

In the bios, looking at its temperature, write close to 60 on the processor.


Having removed and cleaned the cooler, put it back, and the computer immediately starts to freeze when turned on.
Is there a problem with the fact that the paste needs to be reapplied when removing/installing the cooler?
Are all the tables so bad?

The cooler has six heat pipes. On the $2 service, everyone wasted money.
Since I only cook the pasta myself, I end up putting the cooler askew.

Food: It is necessary to install a cooler


Recently the power supply went out so that we could install a single cooler on the back of the system unit (including the cooler for the processor, video card and power supply).

The cooler has six heat pipes.

Radiator for Xigmatek Venus XP-SD1266 I don’t really understand this, but do you need to know how to put a cooler on the blower or in sight?

Having read, what is clearer in sight, so that in another case, when you leave the power supply unit, go back to the system unit.

This is due to the fact that the body is open on both sides.

UV1L


The temperature of the video card is just close to 47 degrees. The normal temperature of a desktop computer's video card is around 55-65 degrees. If there are critical temperatures, then the cob should be taken at 70-75 C, stored in the video card itself.

Cooling the central processor is the main driver of computer performance and speed.

  • No matter how hard the processor you have, if the system is poorly cooled, it will be possible to get rid of it and will be re-engaged.
  • Previously, the processors did not have a special controller that, when the temperature reached a certain temperature limit, gave a command to restart or turn off, which often led to breakdown beyond the possibility of repair.

And if such controllers are to be implemented, the temperature of the processor is raised, which may significantly affect the functional capabilities and not show the stated characteristics.

Budova cooler and main warehouses

As has already been said, the main tasks of the cooler are the heat distribution that the processor sees, thus the cooling part that it comes with.

For this flat side of the radiator, called the sole, it is tightly secured to the processor.

All the heat seen by the processor is lost to the base of the radiator and distributed throughout the entire body.

The material for the manufacture of the radiator is made of aluminum, copper and combined alloys with copper and aluminum.

Please note that a copper cooler will provide the best security, but the temperature can be high, and the mass can be up to one kilogram.

For the best effect, a fan is secured to the top of the radiator.

  1. The stench is both axial and radial.
  2. The axle fans are of equal magnitude, with the propeller flowing through the air to straighten the rotation axis.

In radial coolers, the straightening flow is perpendicular.


It consists of many wings.

This type of fans is significantly larger in size, and also consumes significantly more energy, and the cooling capacity is an order of magnitude greater, equal to the axial one.

Installation of coolers on AMD processors

The process of installing a cooler is difficult, but it requires care and haste in this process.

This socket is called CPU_FAN.

Coolers are distinguished only by the method of fastening, as well as by the efficiency of cooling.

The more productive the processor, the stronger the cooler it is necessary to add.

If you decide to add a fan, try to choose a quiet one to reduce noise as much as possible, as well as identical sizes so that it can be firmly secured.

This review is based on special evidence, hidden information and data from empirical extinctions.

If you don’t want to bore you with the author’s theoretical guesses and hidden facts, you can move on to the next and third parts, where you will immediately look at the insanity of specific models of boards and coolers among themselves.


Or check with the author, where the main theses of this article are briefly outlined.


Statement of the problem


Having read the title, you might think that all the problems between coolers and motherboards are tritely resolved by the fact that they support the mounting of this or other cooling systems installation on one of the few current today and processor sockets.


As a result, supporting the radiator mountings of a different processor socket does not guarantee the compatibility of the cooler with the motherboard.


Are there no common standards that manufacturers of motherboards and cooling systems follow?

The stinks, of course, but there are many aspects in them that simply cannot be comprehended.

And the only manufacturer of cooling systems today that is ideal for powering the cooler and motherboard is the Austrian brand Noctua.

For the cutaneous virus, the following information is provided on the official website.

You can never get enough of Aleksandr.


So I encourage you to look at all possible problems head on.

The complexity of a cooler with a processor socket

As you already guessed, the first thing you can expect to see when choosing a cooler is the official support for this or that processor socket.


This information is provided on the official website of the manufacturer and has a 95% guarantee of accuracy.

What is lost in 5% of losses, what can be done before returning the goods to the store?

Although you don’t want to worry too much about those statistics, it’s still hard to guess about him.


It so happened that the supply of the processor crystal changed river by river, due to changes in the technical process of its preparation.


The linear dimensions of the dry cover of the central processor, which protects the crystal from damage, have been removed.


For example, for AMD and Intel LGA2011 processors, the size of the processor cover is 38x38 mm, and there is a large crystal under the cover.

And for Intel LGA 115x sockets, the size of the cover becomes more than 22x22 mm, which means that the size of the crystal under it is even smaller.

Now we have a simple solution: the standard diameter of the heat pipe is 6 mm.

Well, to completely overheat the Intel LGA115x, there are enough heat pipes.


And an AMD processor can accommodate six.


Problems most often arise from the first processor slot, and sometimes from others.

Large dual-section cooling systems tend to cover all memory slots at once.

It is especially important for poor users of Intel LGA2011, since the memory is distributed on both sides of the processor and the problem with the choice of cooler is of utmost importance.


Without going into the practical value of high heatsinks for DDR3 memory, standard RAM sticks can be divided into three categories:


1) low profile (LP) - the height of the unit is less than 19 mm (options with low radiators are also sharpened);


2) standard (SP) – set the height to exactly 30 mm (can be with or without radiators);

3) high (HP) – everything higher, lower than 30 mm.

It is entirely possible that DDR4 and DDR5, due to increased heating, will have more corrosion due to additional cooling.


However, for now, the memory itself with radiators of the HP category does not bring anything other than problems for the owners, between them in the choice of different cooling systems.


The importance of a cooler with expansion slots


Apparently, different sizes of boards have different numbers of PCI expansion slots.


We would like to inform you that their position and size (the skin slot is exactly 20 mm in width) are clearly specified in the ATX standard, except for the processor socket, the expansion of which is not fixed to the motherboard form factor.

Unsafe conflicts with the cooler over the dimensions usually affect the first slot and very rarely the other, even with similar monstrous cooling systems.

How to resolve a conflict?

If the cooler is wider than 130 mm, please double-check the correctness.

Another parameter that is directly related to the problem of the capacity of coolers is the consistency of their height and width of the PC case.


There is a simple way to establish this identity by holding the case in your hands and knowing the officially stated height of the cooler. On the right, the size and position of the rear plug of the motherboard is standard, regardless of the format of the case.

The right edge of the plug is at a height of 37 mm, just below the surface of the processor cover.

Then, having drawn a linear line from the designated edge to the nearest break (for example, the side wall of the case) and added to a new 37 mm, the permissible height of the cooler in the case is taken to an accuracy of +/- 1 mm.

In this way, we looked at all possible conflict points before installing and replacing the processor cooler.

Now let's move on to a practical re-examination of this theory in order to determine whether such conflicts actually occur frequently.

Cooler Zalman and socket Intel LGA1150

This section features eleven current Zalman air coolers and ten MSI motherboards based on the Intel LGA1150 socket and an Intel Z87 system logic set.

Even larger transistor radiators, lower than those on the original MPOWER, affect the installation of already five coolers out of 11 protests.

However, the most popular models, for example, Zalman CNPS10X and 11X, can be installed without problems.

The first memory slot is often covered by a radiator or fan of the processor cooling system.

MSI Z87-G43 (ATX)

The most problematic for this board were Zalman CNPS14X, Zalman CNPS 8900QUIET and Zalman CNPS 8000B.

In addition to the conflict between the mounting and heat pipes, a problem first emerged with the appearance of the capacitor, which was placed close to the processor socket and affected the installed cooler.

MSI Z87-G45 GAMING (ATX)

There are practically the same problems as the MSI Z87-G43.

MSI Z87-GD65 GAMING (ATX)

There is a conflict with the first memory slot, as well as with the Zalman CNPS14X mounts and the socket with the Zalman CNPS 8900QUIET.

Otherwise, everything is standard.

MSI Z87M GAMING (Micro-ATX)

The cooler that is most problematic for this board is the Zalman CNPS14X, although most coolers consistently cover the first PCI-E slot, and most coolers cover the first RAM slot.

Before installation, medium sized single-section cooler models are recommended.

MSI Z87M-G43 (Micro-ATX)

There is a lot to be said for the MSI Z87M GAMING.

This section features eleven current Zalman air coolers and six MSI motherboards based on AMD FM2+ sockets.

The lists were compiled from the understanding of all the secrets in the division of possibilities and conflicts of insanity.

All coolers were directly installed on motherboards, in all possible orientations, to prevent inconsistency.

Interpretation of the results includes: possible orientation of the cooling system, position of the first expansion slot, position of the memory slots, identification of conflicts on the front and back sides of the board.

The green color indicates non-conflict positions, then - conflicts that do not affect the installation of a cooler or system, the dark color indicates the impossibility of installing a cooling system or starting the system.

MSI A88X-G43 (ATX)

Overall, the board is great with more coolers, so the first PCI-E x1 is not a problem.

As always, the first slot is sometimes closed, and the transistor radiators are not best connected to the horizontal radiators.

MSI A88X-G45 Gaming (ATX)

In terms of processor coolers, the board is essentially the same as the MSI A88X-G43 model.

MSI A88XM Gaming (Micro-ATX)

Large CNPS12X and FX100 are not suitable for this board, but other coolers will work fine.

Sometimes the first memory slot appears to be closed, and large coolers cover the other slot and the first PCI-E slot.

MSI A78M-E45 (Micro-ATX)

As the investigation showed, the officially stated support of a processor cooler for the same socket does not guarantee trouble-free installation on the motherboard.

  • It is important that most cooling system manufacturers equip their units with universal mounting kits, but it is up to the customer to verify the actual capacity of motherboards and coolers.
  • Therefore, we can formulate a number of universal guidelines to help you select a processor cooler:
  • Do not try to install a heavy-duty cooling system on the processor; pay attention to its design features - the number of heat pipes and the spread of heat pipes.
  • Its configuration depends on the type of processor being used.
  • Ideally, the central, warmest zone of the processor cover can absorb the maximum number of heat pipes.
  • Direct contact of heat pipes is most suitable for AMD and Intel LGA2011 processors, less for Intel LGA115x, and the solid base of the cooler sole is more universal solutions.
  • Pay attention to the peculiarities of the cooler mounting and the dimensions of the complete underbody plate.
  • Mini-ITX motherboards have the most problems with large coolers.
Important for everything, such paydays were not insured under the stock refrigeration units, which leads to other problems.

When selecting a cooler for them, you need to pay attention to the expansion of the processor socket, the presence of “tight” elements that can conflict with the power plate, the presence of large heatsinks of power lances on front side, the possibility of oversizing the board cooler and conflict with the case during installation.

A choice of low-profile RAM can help solve the dilemma of choosing either a vertical large cooler or a low horizontal cooler.

Before the protests of Zalman coolers, the following features were noted.

The Zalman CNPS11X Performa turned out to be the most loyal to memory (most often it just doesn’t stop) and the easiest to install.

Therefore, first of all, please read it or ask the fakhivts about what else you will have to do with a steam locomotive.
