Thermalright today introduced the Macho MAXX, its latest single-tower type CPU coolers. The Macho line of tower-type coolers see Thermalright's designers choose a single large aluminium fin-stack over a "D-type" dual fin-stack approach. With its fan in place, the cooler measures 140 mm x 124 mm x 158 mm (WxDxH), weighing 780 g.

The design of the Macho MAXX involves a nickel-plated C1100-grade copper base, from which six 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes emerge, conveying heat across the large stack of 31 fins, which is ventilated by a 140 mm TL-D14 fan. This fan turns at speeds of up to 1,500 RPM, pushing up to 77.8 CFM of airflow, at up to 2.09 mm H₂O static pressure, and up to 25.6 dBA noise output. It features a fluid-dynamic bearing. Among the CPU socket types supported are LGA1700, LGA1200, and AM4. The company didn't reveal pricing.
