Cooler Master Vortex Plus CPU Cooler Review

Overview
The Cooler Master Vortex Plus CPU Cooler is a low profile cooler designed for HTPC cases and LAN box cases. With only a height of 84mm it should fit in most small cases. The heatsink is composed of multiple aluminum fins which have left enough room to secure a 92mm fan in as well as a notch on one side to secure the cooler to the motherboard.

Four 6mm copper heatpipes, evenly spread apart, extend from the base to through the heatsink.

The base of the cooler has an additional heatsink built into it. While it’s small, it does provide some extra cooling. A small notch is placed in this heatsink to allow for the cooler to be secured to the motherboard.

The bottom of the base reveals that the heatpipes are Direct Contact, which means that the heatpipes are in direct contact with the CPU allowing for an instant transfer of heat and ultimately faster cooling.
