Coolermaster heatsinks shown off at IDF

COOLERMASTER IS BOASTING off four coolers here. They range from flat to round, copper to aluminium, but they all do the same thing, make hot CPUs, er, cooler.

The first is dubbed the Carrier because it does look like an aircraft carrier and the documentation is totally in Chinese. It is a very nice looking flat and long part with six heat pipes. It is excitingly named as the model RR-CCH-ANU2-GP, and it fits both Intel and AMD sockets.

Next up, Coolermaster has the LAA-L9A1-GP, an Intel only component that is quite compact. It is all black and instead of the normal open fan or wire mesh surrounds, it has a black plastic cloverish patterned guard. There is still enough room to put your fingers in to get shredded, but they will get shredded by a much more stylish fan.

That brings us to the "Mars", or the RR-CCx-W9U1-GP, a really very round dual heatpipe model. This one fits both AMD and Intel CPUs, and has a blue LED in the middle. It looked a little different from the last few orb coolers we've seen but it may be nothing new at all.

Last up is another odd one, quite like a nautilus in shape. This is proudly proclaimed to be something in Chinese, but in reality it is named the RR-CCB-WLU1-GP. Heck, let's call it the Escargot. This will also take both AMD and Intel CPUs, and looks to be a cut down version of the massive nautilus shaped parts shown off at the last Computex.

Of the four, we liked the Carrier the best, and the pictures don't do it justice. It has such thin fins that they almost disappear from the right angle, making it look a lot smaller than it is.
