True to its motto "innovate - don't imitate," Thermalright consequently improves on the original cooler concept and implements suggestions by their fan base. The result is a further optimized cooler which is not only improved in terms of its looks.
The cooler is presented in a stylish "Black Nickel Design" and thus stands out from the "gray" mass of CPU coolers. The copper heatpipes and the mounting kit are also black nickel plated. In connection with the black anodized Top Fin the cooler offers a probably unique elegant appearance. The main focus of the Macho Zero was ultra-quiet operation. The cooler is accordingly not equipped with a fan.
A special feature of the Macho Zero is the redesigned base plate of the heat sink. Like with the "IB-E" flagships Silver Arrow and Archon X2 it now is much larger (53 x 40 mm) and has been optimized for state-of-the-art multicore processors, like the new Intel Core i7 models.
Included is the universal mounting kit for all current AMD and Intel sockets, the famous and very popular Thermalright Screwdriver with its magnetic tip, one pair each of black anodized fan brackets and white cotton cloves, and a 2 gram syringe of the outstanding Chill Factor 3 thermal grease.
For now, the Thermalright Macho Zero will be offered in combination with a 120 mm or 140 mm fan duct exclusively on Mindfactory.de. From mid-December the cooler will be available in stores all over Europe.
