New CPU Coolers: more efficient and quieter





Startup CoolChip , created by two students of MIT, demonstrated a working prototype of its fans for processors, the resource TechCrunch. Interesting design as the rotating and stationary parts of the radiator, the heat sink can improve by 35-40% as compared to existing commercial models, while drastically reducing the noise of the fan. The overall objective of a startup - reducing energy consumption of data centers.

Your cooler, they mysteriously called "kinetic radiator» KHS, the guys showed a demo event organized accelerator startups Highway1 . Technology already interested cooling equipment manufacturer for PC Cooler Master www.coolermaster.com , and Microsoft with their game consoles Xbox One and the next, until the announced model (according to rumors, Xbox One Slim). New fan might be interested as owners of large data centers that are interested in saving energy, and users who are fond of games, 3d-rendering, video editing - all that requires a lot of processing power, and that, in turn, requires a lot of powerful fans. < br />
The principle of operation of the fan shown in the diagram. 50% of the energy is dissipated through the radiator is stationary and the other half - through the fan blades which are also the fins.





Startup works since 2010. In 2011, the start-up won $ 200,000 at auction MIT "Clean Energy", and in 2012 he получил investment of $ 500,000 from the investment fund Founders Fund (owned by the co-founder of PayPal).
