The true successor of the award-winning Fuma 2 Twin Tower Cooler, dual heatsinks and fans accelerate and enhance heat dissipation for top-tier high performance. 6 x 6mm heat pipes and copper base plate ensure heat from CPU and drop temps. Ideal for mainstream, PC gaming rig and workstations with high TDP processor(13900K, 12700K, 11900K, 11700K, 10900K, 10980XE, 9900k, 9700k, 9600k,3700x)

The Fuma 3 state-of-the-art sturdy radiator structure combines with premium-quality aluminum fin array with higher fin density which increases the surface area of thermal dissipation and maximizes the cooling efficiency during the operations.

The improved asymmetrical design allows unrestricted use of any front high RAM slot, and the cut-out fin design gives highly clearance(54mm) of the rear RAM slot(LGA2011/2066). Standing only 154mm tall, the cooler fits most Mini ITX motherboards on the market such as ROG Strix Z690I.

Using Kaze Flex II 120mm quiet fan(Fluid Dynamic Bearing), FUMA3 uses two different thickness(25mm & 15mm) PWM fans rotating in opposite direction. This generates higher static pressure as well as stable airflow thus pushing cooling performance to maximum while keeping silent operation. Addition fan clips is included to add 3rd fan.

Premium HPMS V provides Fuma 3 with an easy-to-install experience, making installation a breeze and is highly secure for CPU cooler socket INTEL LGA 1700 / LGA1200 / LGA115x / LGA2066 / LGA2011(V3) AMD AM5 / AM4
