Thermaltake has added to its award-winning line of Frio CPU coolers with the launch of the top-of-the-line Frio Extreme.

Designed with overclockers in mind, the substantial 1.23kg unit promises a massive cooling capacity of up to 250W, and integrates both VR and PWM fan control to help keep noise levels down to a minimum.

Measuring 148.2mm deep, 151mm wide and 160mm tall, the Frio Extreme makes use of a dual-tower heatsink design with a mirror-finished copper base, 0.4mm aluminium fins and half-a-dozen 6mm U-shape copper heatpipes.

Providing up to 106.2 CFM of airflow are a pair of 140mm blue-blade fans that operate at speeds of between 1,200RPM and 1,800RPM, and, as expected, the Frio Extreme is compatible with all the latest sockets from Intel and AMD. You'll find a complete list of supported sockets in the spec. table below, but there's still no mention of pricing.

Copped base…now that's interesting!
Looks bad ass. Interested to see the price of this. Purchasing its smaller brother this month or the Be Quiet Dark Advanced.
