AMD will sell the AMD Wraith Max heatsink, which can currently only be found with the two most powerful AMD Ryzen, due to the great interest it has aroused among users.

The arrival of new AMD products, in a massive way, is leaving us speechless and in the last few hours, the leaks of information regarding AMD products do not stop. This weekend the SIGGRAPH 2017 is celebrated and will be the event chosen by AMD to present the AMD RX Vega graphics cards, as well as other products of the company. The latest is the launch of the new AMD Wraith Max heatsinks, which have a dissipation power of a maximum TDP of 140W, which was currently only available if it was purchased in AMD Ryzen 7 1800X and AMD Ryzen 7 1700X processors.

It seems that AMD has decided to launch this powerful heatsink on the market due to the public interest in it, which has won the hearts of users. This heatsink is characterized by being easy to mount and has RGB LED lights around the area where the fan is installed. Not only that, it is a powerful and silent fan, which offers a sound level of only 38dAB. Not only is this heatsink compatible with the new socket AM4 processors, it is also compatible with the AM3 + and FM2 socket.

Regarding lighting, it should be noted that RGB LEDs can be customized and can be synchronized with the motherboard, in addition to supporting ASUS Aura Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, MSI Mystic Light, Biostar Vivid LED DJ and ASRock RGB LED. Additionally, this heatsink can be controlled independently thanks to the application called AMD Wraith Max RGB, which has been developed by Cooler Master.

If we talk about its characteristics, we must highlight that it has an aluminum block to dissipate heat which is crossed by two copper heatapipes that start from the base of the heatsink and are in direct contact with the processor. The copper surface that comes into contact with the processor has a thermal compound already applied and the whole is cooled thanks to a powerful 92mm fan from Cooler Master. This heatsink is priced at $ 59 and should be in stores shortly.
