OCZ is going to release a new CPU and chipset air cooler line this month with a product line codenamed V12 (commercial name: Vindicator). We had the chance to take some snapshots of this new air cooler line from OCZ.
The V12 CPU cooler will have six U-shaped copper heat-pipes, making a total of 12 heat-pipes. A big fan that glows blue when turned on cools down its heatsink. The V12 north bridge cooler will have two U-shaped copper heat-pipes, making a total of four heat-pipes.
On the pictures below you can see both chipset and CPU cooling solutions, with the camera's flash on and off, so you can see the effect of the blue LED light when the CPU cooler is turned on.
