Introduction
Designed for the computer user who wants a better cooler than the stock one that Intel provides with its CPUs, the ASUS P5A2-8SB4W offers improved CPU cooling at an affordable price. The 80mm 4500RPM fan moves 53.1CFM over the innovatively designed heatsink and cooling fin combination to provide stable, reliable computing.
Excess airflow cools the motherboard components as well. PWM functionality lets the computer adjust the fan's speed depending upon heat load. During off-peak computing, this will lower the fan's speed – and noise level. Its compact design is only 10mm wider than the fan itself ensuring maximum clearance from other components within the computer case.
The P5A2-8SB4W is specifically designed to cool Intel processors using the Socket 775. This includes Core 2 Duo, Pentium 4s, Pentium Ds up to 3.4 GHz and Celeron D CPUs. Its light 490 gram weight prevents stress on the motherboard and it installs securely and stably with the included spring screws. If you feel that your CPU is running a little hotter than you like, the P5A2-8SB4W is your best value to protect your computing investment.
Highlights
Omni-directional Airflow
The innovative heatsink design, coupled with a large 80mm cooling fan, delivers omni-directional airflow for efficient cooling of the CPU and motherboard VR components.
PWM Function
The PWM function automatically adjusts fan speeds according to the CPU temperature for efficient cooling and minimized fan noise.
