Coolers often have support for only Intel or AMD processors, but there are universal ones too, even if they end up bundled with a whole bunch of different screws and mounting mechanisms. Gelid has just released such a universal cooler.

Called Siberian PRO, it has a very compact aluminum heatsink covered with a 92mm fan (complete with automatic PWM speed control). The CPU/APU contact “plate” is part of the heatsink's main body.

Altogether, the cooler is 89mm tall, which makes it quite tiny. Good for HTPCs and other small cases.

The price of the newcomer is $12.99 / €9.99 and sells with a 5-year warranty. It is RoHS and WEEE compliant too.

The list of supported processors is this: Intel LGA 6775, 1150, 1155 and 1156 CPUs of up to 100W TDP, and AMD 754, 939, AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, FM1, and FM2 CPUs/APUs of 100W or less.
