XERON has released the NEX A61 ARGB, a new air CPU cooler designed to keep high-end processors cool without generating excessive noise. This release matters because it offers a budget-friendly option for builders using the latest AMD Ryzen 9000 series or Intel's newest LGA 1851 platforms. The cooler specifically targets users who need reliable thermal performance for powerful chips like the Ryzen 9 9950X3D without breaking the bank.
Budget air cooling solution supports latest AMD and Intel sockets
The unit features a single-tower design with a push-pull fan configuration to maximize airflow across the heat pipes. XERON equipped the cooler with dual silent ring-blade fans that operate at speeds up to 1800 RPM. This setup allows the cooler to maintain an acoustic profile as low as 29.9 dB(A) under load, which is quiet enough for most gaming or workstations.
