The tower CPU Cooler “Tranquillo” uses 4 power heat pipes and a special heat pipe constellation to achieve best heat transfer from CPU core to the aluminium fins in its class. After precise software simulation and calculation during the development stage a unique heat sink shape was created to lower air flow resistance as much as possible.
A silent 120mm fan with the intelligent GELID PWM (Pulse Width Module) control has been chosen to make this heat sink more valuable. The fan blades were optimised to guarantee high airflow while running silently. The intelligent GELID PWM curve keeps the fan silent when no necessary cooling is needed and accelerates the fan speed whenever additional cooling is needed. The multi-award winning high performance GC-2 thermal compound is already included in the package.
Additionally mounting clips for AMD 754/ 939/ 940/ AM2/ AM2+ and for Intel 775, 1366 and latest 1156 sockets as same as back plates for Intel LGA 775, Core i5 and Core i7 boards are all included.

Nice to see this back, great cooler. Shame it's more expensive than it was last time, now it goes against the Fenir and the Freedom Tower. When it was closer to £20 it was unbeatable competition for the Freezer 7 Pro and the Hyper 212 Plus.
 
Depends if you want something that's quiet or awesome at cooling. Reviews seem to suggest the Gelid is very quiet but at that price the others beat it at cooling value for money.

How do the companies keep churning out CPU coolers that all look almost identical to each other?!

Because when you're making hundreds of thousands of something you want to follow a low risk path.

Some other bugger took the risk and did a design which took off, let's ave it but make it sliiightly different so we have a new angle on essentially the same product. We'll ave some of that first guys market share too.

Gelid actually means extremely cold and icy. Did you know that?

The gelid however is very quiet.
