Dissipatore ad aria DeepCool AK500 Digital 12 cm nero 2,19 mmH2O

The DeepCool AK500 DIGITAL is a black tower air cooler designed for efficient CPU cooling in mainstream systems. It retains the AK500 ZERO DARK architecture with an offset direct-touch, five-heatpipe wide-tower layout and a unique black matrix fin design, and adds a magnetic status display and ARGB LED strips. The unit includes a 120 mm FDB fan and supports a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets while keeping a compact footprint (117 mm width, 127 mm depth, 160 mm height).

Advantages

The cooler provides real-time monitoring via a crystal-clear magnetic status screen that shows CPU temperature and usage and issues high-temperature warnings; the display is managed through a simple application requiring an open USB 2.0 header. Its proven wide-tower design with five heat pipes and a high-performance FDB fan delivers strong heat dissipation with low noise. The angled offset heat pipe layout improves DRAM compatibility and provides 45 mm clearance for rear DIMM slots on quad-channel motherboards. An all-metal mounting bracket ensures secure and even contact on both Intel and AMD platforms.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Cooling mainstream desktop CPUs in gaming and productivity builds
• Systems where compact size and high price-performance ratio are needed
• Builds requiring real-time CPU temperature and usage monitoring
• Configurations with tall DRAM heatspreaders or quad-channel motherboards

How to use

Install the all-metal mounting bracket and mount the AK500 DIGITAL according to the motherboard platform instructions to ensure even contact with the CPU heatspreader. Connect the 120 mm FK120 fan and the display USB cable to an available header (the status screen requires an open USB 2.0 header for the control application). Once installed, run the supplied application to configure the real-time status screen and ARGB lighting. Monitor CPU temperature and usage through the display and adjust fan curves in the motherboard or application as required.

Recommendations

For best results, ensure adequate case airflow and verify the cooler clearance with tall memory modules before final installation; on quad-channel motherboards allow for the 45 mm rear DIMM clearance.
