The ends of the heat pipes are sealed and finished. The pipes are placed in two pairs in the heatsink: the two middle pipes are shifted towards the top of the heatsink while the two side ones are closer to the heatsink?s bottom.

Consisting of a large number of thin aluminum ribs, the heatsink of the Ultra-X cooler is covered with a metal casing from three sides. The cooler?s name is engraved on that casing. If the protecting grid with the fan is removed, you can see that the area of contact between the pipes and the heatsink is enlarged by means of bottlenecks that seem to have been created when the plates were being pulled on the pipes.

At the bottom part of the cooler, right above the pipes, there is a small needle-type aluminum heatsink:

The heatsink turned to have no contact with the pipes at all. It only serves as a support for the cooler fastening clip on platforms with K8 processors ?there is a special groove in its center for that.

The pipes lie in grooves made in the base and are soldered to the cooler?s sole ?the traces of soldering are barely visible.

The Enzotech Ultra-X is equipped with a 120mm seven-blade fan:
