Mars Gaming MCPU-X4 Processor Air cooler 12 cm Black 1 pc(s)

The Mars Gaming MCPU-X4 is a 12 cm air cooler designed to provide efficient thermal management for high-performance desktop PCs. It combines four HCT copper heatpipes, an optimized aluminum heatsink and a 120 mm SI Extreme‑Silence PWM fan with hydraulic (FDB) bearings to deliver controlled airflow and reliable heat dissipation while maintaining low noise levels.

Advantages

The cooler supports up to 230 W TDP and uses an arrangement of four HCT heatpipes for fast heat transfer from the CPU to the fins. The 120 mm fan features PWM control and a speed range of 800–2000 RPM, offering a balance between cooling performance and low acoustic output. Integrated anti‑vibration foam pads reduce mechanical noise and improve mounting stability. Its compact dimensions and black finish make it suitable for many system builds.

Suitable for

• High-performance gaming PCs with up to 230 W CPU load
• Workstations performing CPU-intensive tasks (rendering, encoding)
• Compact mid-tower builds where a 120 mm cooler is required

How to use

Install the MCPU-X4 following the motherboard and cooler mounting instructions: apply a thin, even layer of thermal paste to the CPU heatspreader, position the heatsink so the heatpipes align with the retention bracket, and secure the cooler using the supplied mounting hardware. Connect the fan's 3‑ or 4‑pin PWM cable to the CPU_FAN or SYS_FAN header on the motherboard to allow automatic speed control. Ensure there is sufficient clearance inside the case for the cooler height and that airflow direction matches your system's intake/exhaust configuration.

Recommendations

For optimal results, keep case airflow unobstructed and clean dust from the heatsink and fan regularly. Use PWM fan control in BIOS or software to allow automatic speed adjustment according to CPU temperature.
