Design and Functionality

Tuniq Tower 120 cooler features three copper heatpipes 6mm in diameter soldered to the copper base. The heatpipes carry two aluminum plate arrays with a 120-mm fan inserted between them:

The cooler measures 131 x 108 x 153mm and weighs 798g. The distance between the heatsink plates is a little less than 2mm and the heatsink plate edges are bent downwards covering the sides of the heatsink.

The fan sits right in-between the two heatsink arrays:

So, one of the arrays is cooled down with an incoming airflow, while the other – with the outgoing one.

The 120 x 120 x 25mm fan sits in a metal frame with a decorative cover that is why you can easily replace it if it breaks or if you wish to use a more powerful fan:

The fan rotation speed can be adjusted with a bundled controller that is installed instead of one rare panel case brackets:

The fan rotation speed varies between 1000 and 2000RPM. So, summing everything up, we can conclude that the only difference between the new Tuniq Tower 120-LFB cooler and the first Tuniq Tower 120 revision is the LED lighting.

We checked the evenness of the cooler sole in our traditional way by checking the thermal compound imprint on the glass surface: it proved impeccable. However, we wish the finish quality were better:
