AMD’s record breaking Radeon HD 7970 rightfully deserves a super cooler of its own. Prolimatech is happy to oblige and the new MK-26 Pro VGA cooler for the HD 7970 has just been spotted.
The Pro version is an enhanced evolution of its twisted heatpipe older brother. The new cooler is 60 grams heavier than the MK-26 plain version.
At 590 g, the MK-26 Pro comes with six heatipes, each 6 millimeters in diameter. That’s a weight of about 1.3 pounds in imperial.
We still don’t understand why most of the cooler builders don’t use 8 mm heatpipes, but maybe that’s because they still want to be able to charge us more in the following years.
Besides the same number of heatpipes with the same diameter in each of them, the Pro version of the MK-26 brings less twisted heatpipes, but a much larger head dissipation area.
The Pro version has 4,670 square centimeters of cooling area, while the older version only has 3,500 square centimeters. The cooling fins are nickel-plated and the cooler is compatible with 12cm and 14cm fans.
