There is a new CPU cooler in town, one that has a somewhat peculiar heatsink and fan layout.

Not only are there two fans in total, but they are of different sizes: one measures 120mm in diameter and the other 92mm.

They are set up in dual PWM mode, one above and one below the horizontal fin stack. Heat is taken out of the CPU by four nickel-plated copper heatpipes.

Due to its shape and compact size, the Noctua NH-L12 CPU Cooler will be most appealing to people who want to make an HTPC or other small systems.

Small motherboard like the upcoming H77-based Media series from Intel may end up bearing an Ivy Bridge chip and this cooler on top of it.

The product's price is $59.90 / 45.27 Euro and the product page is located here.
