SLC-747

I will begin to explore the Auras series with the junior and inexpensive SLC-747 model. It comes in a small square cardboard box:

The package shows a photo of the cooler, its specs, supported platforms and other information. The following accessories included into the kit can be found at the top of the box:

• Clip to mount the cooler on Socket 754/939/940/AM2 platforms
• Frame with four plastic locks for LGA775 mainboards
• Syringe with thick dark-gray thermal grease
• Four screws to install the fasteners
• Sticker with an Auras logo
• Step-by-step instructions for installing the cooler on the supported platforms

The cooler design is simple. We have reviewed such coolers on our site before:

Four copper heat pipes with a diameter of 6mm go out of the copper base distributing the heat flow in the heatsink ribs that hang on the pipes. The Auras SLC-747 measures 111x108x71mm at only 380g of weight.

The pipes all lie in the same plane in the heatsink, i.e. linearly.

The heatsink is topped with a 92mm fan that cools the whole arrangement:

The top of the heatsink ribs has a wavy profile for less resistance to the airflow from the fan.
