0.1 mm fin pitch
Skive, don't solder
Cold-plate microfins are cut from the copper billet itself — 0.1 mm fins, 94 channels, zero thermal joints. A soldered fin is a future failure; a skived one is the same piece of metal.

KELVIN°
Gaming hardware has one opponent, and it isn't the other team. We build the coolers, fans, cases and power that keep a machine composed at full load — machined, binned and tested like it matters.

Cooling is a trade you make with your ears. The K273's curve is engineered so the trade stays honest — find the point you can live with and it will hold it, all session.

0.1 mm fin pitch
01Skive, don't solder
Cold-plate microfins are cut from the copper billet itself — 0.1 mm fins, 94 channels, zero thermal joints. A soldered fin is a future failure; a skived one is the same piece of metal.
5 µm flatness
02Lap to five microns
Every cold plate is lapped flat to within 5 µm across its face. Paste fills imperfection; we prefer to remove the imperfection.
± 2 % matching
03Bin every fan
Fans are speed-tested after assembly and matched within 2 % per pack. Matched fans stay in phase — mismatched ones beat against each other, and you can hear it at night.
48 h at load
04Test for 48 hours
Each sealed loop runs two full days at load before it gets a serial number and a box. The test log ships with the unit. If a unit is going to fail, it fails here — not on your desk.
06 / Fit check — will it fit? Answered now, not after unboxing
Anything that clears both checks ships with the right mounting kit in the box — no brackets sold separately, ever.
Two answers.
Zero returns.
Select your socket and case on the left — we'll tell you exactly what fits, with the millimetres to prove it.
6-year warranty
