Extend your CPU&rsquo,s life and enjoy better performance.

OUT OF STOCK

You’ve invested a lot into your Intel or AMD CPU. Now’s the time to protect it and make it run better.

Excessive heat is the deadly enemy of high-performance silicon, and the Air Series A50 CPU cooler can extend the lifetime of your CPU by quietly and efficiently drawing that heat away.

You’ll get faster performance, too. Intel Core™ i5 and Core™ i7 processors can be easily configured to automatically overclock when conditions are right. Lowering your CPU’s operating temperature one of the best ways to do this – your CPU will detect that it’s running cooler, and instantly boost its speed when you need it. Of course, if you’re not using a Core i5 or Core i7 or if you prefer to adjust your overclocking settings manually, the Air Series A50 will give you the temperature headroom you need.

The superior engineering of the Air Series A50 makes it dramatically outperform your CPU’s stock heatsink: three 8mm copper heatpipes directly contact your CPU and instantly pull heat up into the aluminum cooling fins. A 120mm fan, mounted on rubber studs to reduce noise and vibration, quietly draws cool air through the fins.

Spend 15 minutes replacing your CPU’s stock heatsink and enjoy years of better performance.

Air Series A50 wins Value award at LegitReviews

"With the Corsair A50 doing as well as it does and costing what it does, I feel it would make for a nice budget cooler because it will get the job done and not break the bank in the process. The documentation is very easy to follow, it was easy to install, and will fit all the popular sockets out today -- even the new Intel LGA1155 socket for 'Sandy Bridge' processors as that socket same hole pattern as the LGA1156 socket. The Corsair A50 even comes backed by a 2-year warranty, which is nice for the price you pay."

Corsair A50 gets 9 out of 10 at Think Computers

I was pleasantly surprised that it put up a good fight against the more expensive Thermaltake Frio (high fan speeds on the Frio are WAYY too loud).
