DeepCool has today released two new processor scooters. AS 500 and AS 500 Plus are both tower-type coolers, the only difference being the number of fans – AS 500 has one AS fan 500 Plus two. As is typical of modern coolers, DeepCool’s novelties include RGB lighting, which is implemented relatively restrained as a strip around the black top of the tower.

The AS 500 series coolers are constructed of five 6 mm heat pipes and a relatively thin tower equipped with a tight aluminum grating and a copper base plate. In the depth direction AS 500 – the chillers of the series have a measurement without a fan only mm and also with the fan should, according to the manufacturer, guarantee full compatibility with the RAMs, leaving the whole behind. The height of the coolers is 164 mm and the width 142 mm

The position of the fan in its coolers is handled by one or two DeepCool’s own TF 140 S PWM fans with a liquid-bearing motor. As the name implies, the fan is 140 in diameter and has a speed range of 500 – 1200 RPM. According to the manufacturer, the fan itself has a volume below 29, 2 dBA, but AS 500 In the case of, the sound output of the entire cooler is multiplied by 26 below 31, 5 dBa.

The top of the radiators is covered by a black protective frame that hides the aluminum grille and the ends of the copper heat pipes underneath. The frame itself is surrounded by addressable RGB lighting that can be controlled directly from the 5-volt connector on the motherboard.

AS 500 and AS 500 Plus therefore differ only in the number of fans, as AS 500 Plus comes with two DeepCool TF 140 S fans in a push-pull configuration. Cooling power is promised by the manufacturer for both AS 500 models 220 watts, although the Plus model transfers heat more efficiently.

• External dimensions (without fans): 142 x 48 x 164 mm
• Materials: Aluminum wire, nickel-plated copper heat pipes
