The IceGiant ProSiphon Elite is a powerful and unique CPU cooler that brings the ProSiphon technology is based on the thermosiphon effect, a technique normally reserved for commercial or High-Performance Computing, to the home. Compatible with most modern AMD and Intel chipsets, the IceGiant ProSiphon Elite can achieve cooling performance comparable to a custom-made water cooling system.

The IceGiant ProSiphon Elite CPU-Cooler in detail:
At first glance, the ProSiphon Elite appears to consist of a large heatsink and four 120mm PWM fans. However, this is no ordinary air cooler. It uses IceGiant's patented technology offers powerful cooling.
This is a technique that has not been previously used for consumer applications. Essentially, a liquid dielectric at the bottom of the cooler will quickly evaporate once the CPU starts heating up. The evaporated liquid transfers the excess heat to the outer edges of the condenser, where the fans expel the heat from the cooler. The cooled liquid then returns to the bottom of the condenser, ready to start the process all over.
ProSiphon Elite’s patented ProSiphon cooling process means the CPU cooler effectively dissipates heat, whilst its efficient design makes it extremely durable. So much so, you’ll be provided with a ten-year IceGiant warranty.
As well as the condenser, four dedicated PWM fans are attached to the unit. Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut paste is also included to ensure strong heat transfer between the cooler and CPU.
