CoolerMaster debuts new cooler at CES2011

The tentative model number is H-B6... features six heat pipes, can accommodate two 120mm fans... click on this link for a pic.... I can't wait 'til this beast hits the market!

 

Looks like a beast, they must want to compete with the NH-D14.

 

I have been running a Coolmaster V8 for some time now and have been really satisfied with it, This new one looks to be a great development.

 

Yeah, but the H-B6 is considerably smaller but looks like it will be a great performer. The NH-D14 is the "original beast" when it comes to CPU coolers. It was the first cooler to feature two full sized "towers", and I'm pretty sure it was also the first to be able to accommodate 3 fans, and it can use 120mm fans, 130/135mm fans, and 140mm fans, or any combination of the three. But at $80-$100, the D14 is WAY out of my league! I don't OC too much so it would be overkill anyway. If CoolerMaster can keep the price of the H-B6 under $50, then they should have a true winner on their hands, but that will also depend on its performance. CM has been releasing GREAT coolers at GREAT prices in the past 2 years or so, and I'm sure the newer coolers will follow the same trend.

(CoolerMaster was showing off some other new coolers at CES2011, including a self-contained liquid cooler with a special CM patented copper block; more info can be found at this link)

 

Looks like a H-50 wannabe if i'm honest, will be interesting to see how it performs.

 

Yup, it might be interesting I'd bet they're almost the same if the pumps push through the same amount of water but CM have had 2 years to improve on the radiator design. I'll stick to my H-50 'til it dies.

 

Tbh i don't think they can really improve things like radiators that much, even with that amount of time.

I personally don't think it will sell, it looks ugly and unless it is an outstanding performer then people will chose the H-50 or the H-70 over it.
