Schickimicki
Der“Schickimicki” /ʃɪkiˈmɪki/ is a German noun that means something is trendy and fashionable. Can the thermal solution be a “Schickimicki” that is really cool and eye-catching as well? The answer is absolutely positive, especially in the PC gaming market. But how? Let’s check this out!

CPU Fans
To start with, we talk about the fan first. The commonly applied fan dimensions in the PC gaming market are 120x120x25 mm and 140x140x25 mm. To support different spaces sometimes fans with dimensions of 92x92x25 mm or 120x120x15 mm will be utilized, too. Additionally, in order to optimize the performance and the appearance, unique designs such as dimple-like-, shark teeth shape-, and wavy impeller surface will opt-in. Done? Of course not. The most attractive factor is the light effect with small LED light bulbs embedded in the hub of the fan shining with disparate modes of RGB and addressable RGB lighting fest like breathing, overlapping, and popping, and so on. To decrease the noise and pressure sometimes it’s essential to put rubber pad at the corners. That’s how a fancy beauty should be like.

CPU Heat Sinks
As the old saying goes “The devil is in the details”, regarding the CPU heat sink design there are many clever designs of it, such as CPU socket compatibility, fin structure, and off-set design

CPU socket compatibility
The user-friendly mounting kits enable PC enthusiast to quickly install the cooler in comprehensive socket platform of both Intel and AMD. Hereunder are popular socket types:
Intel: LGA2066, LGA2011-v3, LGA2011, LGA1366, LGA115X, LGA775
AMD: TRX4, TR4, AM4, AM3+, AM2+, AM2, FM2+, FM2, FM1

Heat sink structure
In general, there are two types of air active cooler – tower and top blowing.
For the tower structure, there are the single tower and twin tower types of the heat sink fin structure.
The top blowing structure, the cold air is brought from the top and blows toward the heated area underneath.

Off-set design
Now, most coolers apply this design to avoid conflict with the RAM.
This means the fins of the first few rows are shorter than others.
Also, the heat pipes are slightly bent behind to fit in the space for cooling.

Liquid Cooler
Furthermore, the liquid cooler is also very popular nowadays. It’s not just about cooling but also your own style. No doubt that the heat dissipation ability of liquid cooling is better than that of air cooling.

The liquid cooler composed of the following parts: the fan, the radiator, tubes, and the pump. The heat from the CPU is contacted with the copper block from the pump bottom, then the liquid inside the pump flows through the microchannels of the copper heat sink inside the pump and go straight to the tubes between the radiator and the pump in a continuous cycle. What’s more interesting is – infusing color to your coolant to make your build stands out from others.

Optimized design
No matter it’s a flagship model or an entry-level one, a premium appearance undoubtedly makes the player impressed. The followings are some techniques applied for putting the finishing touches on the cooling products.
Nickel plating and anodizing
The surface treatment is also quite essential. Nickel plating prevents the product from corrosion. Anodizing enhances the thermal conductivity, but the anodizing layer thickness should not be too over.
Logo management
The logo is the spirit of a product. There are many ways to demonstrate the logo. For a logo of the CPU cooler, the diamond-cut process is highly recommended – low-key, silent-powered, and elegant
