Kuthtec KTM3000 From All Angles

The 70mm Everflow fan draws 0.23A and is fairly average in terms of noise production. The fan attaches directly to the fins with a few spacers to keep it sitting just slightly above the rest of the heatsink. A 3-pin fan header connects directly to the motherboard for power and RPM sensing.

Top: The four spacer washers are visible with the fan removed. There is no central cavity under the fan motor as you can see here, the copper core is flush to the top of the aluminum fins. In most of the recent heatsinks we have seen with this design, the central core does not go all the way to the top, rather there is a cylindrical hole about 30mm in diameter - but not in this case.

Heatsink Base:

The base of the Kuthtec KTM3000 is a little more complex than most other heatsinks but the main reason is for the clipping system. The clip attaches directly to the copper core, and so the fulcrum is at a fixed point and there is no chance of sliding. The central copper core is 24mm in diameter, and the base finish is very smooth, and flat.
