The Thermaltake Gravity i3 is a low-profile CPU cooler tailored for Intel’s LGA 1851 and LGA 1700 sockets, making it an excellent choice for compact builds and systems utilizing low-power processors. Its design features a 92mm fan with a 7-blade configuration, capable of speeds ranging from 1200 to 3500 rpm, delivering efficient airflow of up to 56.84 CFM while maintaining a noise level of 36.5 dBA. The aluminum extrusion heatsink effectively dissipates heat for CPUs with a thermal design power (TDP) of up to 95W. With dimensions of 96.6mm in width and length, and a height of 65.4mm, the Gravity i3 ensures compatibility with various case sizes without obstructing other components. Its straightforward installation process and reliable performance make it a practical solution for users seeking efficient cooling in a compact form factor.
Air coolers are more reliable; liquid coolers (AIOs) handle burst heat better and look cleaner. Always check case clearance. Available from $14.99.
Air coolers have no ongoing costs. Liquid coolers (AIOs) may need replacement after 5-7 years when the pump dies.
Common Failure Modes
On air coolers, only the fan can fail. On liquid coolers, the water pump inevitably fails or liquid permeates out.
