Dissipatore CPU XILENCE Performance C XC229 120 mm, TDP 150 W, bianco, 500–1800 RPM, cuscinetto fluidodinamico, supporto multi-socket

The Xilence Performance C XC229 is a 120 mm CPU cooler designed to provide effective cooling for a wide range of desktop processors. It features an aluminium base plate, three heat pipes and a single white fan with a fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) that supports PWM control for adjustable speeds up to 1800 RPM. The cooler is rated for a thermal design power (TDP) of 150 W and is compatible with many Intel and AMD sockets.

Advantages

The fluid dynamic bearing ensures reduced bearing noise and longer fan life. PWM support allows automatic speed regulation based on CPU temperature for a balance of cooling and quiet operation. Aluminium fins and multiple heat pipes improve heat transfer from the base plate to the airflow path, while the compact 120 mm fan profile fits most mid-tower and smaller cases.

Suitable for

• Cooling mainstream Intel Core and AMD Ryzen desktop processors
• Systems with limited internal space where a 120 mm cooler is preferred
• Builds that require a quiet, PWM-controlled single-fan cooler

Key specifications

• Maximum rotational speed: 1800 RPM
• Noise level (high speed): 25.6 dB
• Maximum airflow: 61.5 cfm
• Bearing type: Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB)
• PWM support: Yes (4-pin connector)
• Number of fans: 1
• Heat pipes: 3
• Base plate material: Aluminium
• Fins material: Aluminium
• Colour: White
• Thermal Design Power (TDP): 150 W

How to use

Install the cooler on a compatible CPU socket according to the motherboard and cooler mounting instructions: mount the aluminium base plate in direct contact with the CPU heatspreader using the included thermal paste or an appropriate equivalent, secure the cooler using the supplied brackets and screws for the selected socket, and connect the 4-pin fan cable to the CPU_FAN or system fan header on the motherboard to enable PWM control. Ensure there is sufficient clearance around the cooler for case airflow.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure the fan header supports PWM and that BIOS fan curves are configured to allow automatic speed scaling. Periodically clean dust from the fins and fan to maintain airflow. This cooler is best suited for systems up to the specified 150 W TDP; for sustained operation above that level consider a higher-capacity cooling solution.
