Gelid's Gamer Black Edition Cooler Up Close

Now that we've written about some Trinity-supporting motherboards, we're going to report on a cooler that can collaborate with socket FM2 processors.

The product we are talking about is the Gelid Gamer Series Black Edition, made of two dark aluminum towers, seven heatpipes (three 8mm and four 6mm ones) and a 120mm fan between the two fin arrays. There's a second fan too, on the side of the first stack, for air intake. It measures 120mm and is thinner than the other spinner (15 mm vs. 25 mm).

That said, buyers of Trinity APU systems might find the newcomer to be too expensive (the price was left unspecified) or overpowered. Then again, FM2 are just one type of supported CPU/APU. The Gamer Black Edition will work with AMD AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2 units and Intel LGA 1155/1156/1366 units just as easily.
