What stood out at the cooling parts sales floor this week were DeepCool's single fan cooler "AG400 ARGB" and dual fan cooler "AG620 ARGB". The price will be slightly less than 4200 yen and around 9400 yen (including tax, same below).

"AG400 ARGB" and "AG620 ARGB" arrived at Dospara Akihabara Main Store

Both are side-flow type and use a 120mm fan with built-in ARGB LED. While positioned close to the "AK400" that appeared in April and the "AK620" that appeared in June, the heat sink is made differently and the fan specifications are new.

For example, the AK400 has a shape in which the heat pipe rises vertically, but the AG400 ARGB is made so that it extends vertically after being slightly tilted to the rear, and the center of the front and back is centered due to the thickness of the fan. The height is about 150mm for AG400 ARGB and about 157mm for AG620 ARGB. The corresponding sockets are both LGA 115x/1200/1700 (AG620 is further LGA2066/2011-v3/2011), Socket AM5/AM4.

It is generally well received at the shops where it arrived. TSUKUMO eX. said, "The AG400 ARGB is priced at just over 4000 yen, and the maximum fan speed is 2000 rpm ± 10%, which is nearly 10% higher than the AK400. It also supports CPUs up to TDP 220W. I think it's a specification that can become a standard enough."

The Dospara Akihabara main store also said, "It's attractive that it's equipped with ARGB LEDs in this price range."

A white model appears in the thermal take high static pressure fan

In addition, for cooling parts, the White model has been added to Thermal Take's high static pressure fan "TOUGHFAN" series. There are 140mm diameter and 120mm diameter, and the price is around 3200 yen and around 3000 yen.

Specifications other than color are the same as the preceding black model.

The computer shop Ark, who received the product, said, "There are still few white options for high static pressure fans, so I think many people will be pleased."


"TOUGHFAN 14/12 White" arrived at PC SHOP Ark

From the company, "TTMOD PWM Fan 4 Pin Y-Cable 3Pack" (less than 1000 yen), which is a set of three adapters that split the 4-pin power connector for fans into two, and PCIe 4.0 with an L-shaped connection with a length of 200 mm The corresponding riser cable "TT Premium PCI-E 4.0 Extender-200mm with 90 degree adapter" (less than 10,000 yen) is also on sale.

Regarding the riser cable, Oriospec said, "The L-shaped type is more popular than the straight type. The standard length is 300mm, but I think some people will pay attention to the 200mm type because it is shorter and does not flex." I was speaking.
