Corsair unveils A115, their most efficient air cooler yet

High-performance gear and systems manufacturer Corsair has announced the release of the A115 High-Performance Tower CPU Air Cooler, adding to their growing lineup of CPU cooling solutions. The A115, touted as the most formidable and efficient air cooler the company has produced to date, is tailored to tackle the high temperatures produced by the latest CPUs from Intel and AMD.

The A115 integrates six 6mm heat pipes and a copper cold plate with a high-efficiency design, all purpose-built to handle CPUs with up to 270W TDP. Additionally, the cold plate's slightly convex shape ensures maximum thermal contact with the CPU, promising uncompromised stability and thermal transfer. After absorbing the heat, the 90 nickel-plated cooling fins significantly increase the surface area for heat dissipation, coming in at a substantial 1.69m.

Notably, the A115 is equipped with two high-performance CORSAIR AF140 ELITE Fans operating with innovative AirGuide technology. This includes anti-vortex vanes engineered for concentrated airflow, reaching up to 1,600 RPM while maintaining a low noise level at 33.9 dBA. Installation and adjustment are eased by Corsair's pioneering Slide-and-Lock fan mount system, which allows for variable mounting height and broad DRAM height compatibility.

Corsair's enactment of the HoldFast 2.0 Retention System ensures the A115 securely fits on high-performance CPUs, including brackets for the latest Intel LGA 1700 and AMD AM5/AM4 sockets. The air cooler comes pre-applied with top-performing XTM70 thermal paste, ensuring optimal heat transfer right out of the box.

Aaron Neal, Director of DIY Product Marketing at CORSAIR, acknowledged customer demand for a new air cooler and emphasised the company's commitment to meeting those needs. He expressed the dedication to refining the design of the A115 until achieving a best-in-class air cooling solution for enthusiast customers. According to Neal, the final product speaks for itself in terms of quality and performance.

"Our customers have been clamouring for a new CORSAIR air cooler, and we have heard them loud and clear," said Neal. "We knew we needed to make our mark with the A115, so we continued refining our design until we were satisfied that we could deliver a best-in-class air cooling solution to our enthusiast customers. The end result speaks for itself."

If you are seeking to build an air-cooled PC with a top-spec CPU, you might consider the A115 to ensure your cooling keeps up. The A115 High-Performance Tower CPU Air Cooler, backed by a five-year warranty and Corsair's worldwide customer service and technical support network, is available for AUD $169 from the Corsair worldwide network of authorised retailers and distributors.
