Thermaltake released several new CPU coolers during this CES. Let’s take a look at them.

The Contac 39 is basically a Contac 30 from the same manufacturer with one additional 120 mm fan. It is a mainstream CPU cooler with three 8 mm U-shaped, direct-touch heatpipes and a thermal design power (TDP) of 180 W. The two fans also have PWM control (800 rpm to 2,000 rpm).

The Frio Extreme is a high-end CPU cooler, with a TDP of 250 W, featuring two heatsinks connected by six 6 mm U-shaped, direct-touch heatpipes and two 140 mm fans with PWM control (1,200 rpm to 1,800 rpm). It comes with a controller, with which you can switch between PWM speed control and manual speed control.

Thermaltake also released a new series of liquid cooling solution, the Water 2.0, which is comprised of three models: Performer, Pro and Extreme. They are sealed products, meaning the cooler comes pre-assembled and all you need to do is to install it, just like you would install a regular air cooler. The Performer and Pro feature a 120 mm fan. The main difference between the two is the size of the radiator. The Extreme model, on the other hand, has two 120 mm fans and a 240 mm radiator.
