Quick look at the HTC HD2 (Leo)

HTC HD2The move to a Windows Mobile device has been a very pleasant transition for me. I had the original iPhone and then upgraded to the iPhone 3G, whilst I enjoyed both devices I still felt bogged down by the fact that I had to install Apple’s horrible iTunes.

Noctua intros NH-C12P special edition

NoctuaVienna, December 9th 2009 - Noctua today officially introduced its new NH-C12P SE14 premium cooler. Building on the proven basis of the successful NH-C12P, the NH-C12P SE14 now comes with Noctua’s new, already award winning NF-P14 140mm fan for further improved quiet cooling performance and adds support for LGA1156 as well as LGA1366 via the latest SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system.

“Ever since its introduction last year, our NH-C12P has been a very popular choice among customers who seek excellent cooling performance close to our signature NH-U12P series at much lower height”, says Mag. Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO. “More than 100 awards and recommendations from the international press are a testimony to the NH-C12P’s broad appeal, so we’ve decided to issue a special edition that adds compatibility with the latest Intel sockets and further improves the coolers renowned cooling efficiency by using our new NF-P14 fan.”

Further improving the original NH-C12P’s much acclaimed quiet cooling performance, the NF-P14 is a highly optimised, premium quality 140mm fan with Vortex-Control Notches for superb quietness and outstanding aerodynamic efficiency. Due to the NH-C12P’s top-flow design, two large Airflow-Gaps and the oversize 140mm fan, the cooler doesn’t only ensure excellent CPU cooling but also provides superior airflow for near-socket motherboard components. At a height of only 114mm, the NH-C12P SE14 is ideal for HTPCs or smaller chassis.

Thanks to the addition of the latest SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system, the new NH-C12P SE14 supports LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA775, AM2, AM2+ and AM3, making it compatible with Intel’s latest Core i7 and Core i5 processors. Topped off with Noctua’s pro-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-C12P SE14 forms a complete premium quality package that lends itself to applications that demand both excellent cooling efficiency and lower profile design.

Price and availability
The NH-C12P SE14 will be available shortly at a recommended retail price of EUR 59.90 / USD 69.90.
