New Thermalright HR-02 Macho Zero CPU Cooler Revealed

The Thermalright Macho series has already proven to be one of the best bang for buck CPU coolers on the market. Now it’s back once again with the release of the HR-02 special edition, and it promises to be better than ever. Thermalright listen to their community and have revised the coolers looks, cooling performance and fans to create their latest model. The HR-02 features a black nickel finish to its thick copper heatpipes and mounting kit, giving it a sleek and uniform appearance.

The cooler is designed to run passively, perfect for those who want a completely silent system. The HR-02 also comes bundled with a 120mm or 140mm fanduct, allowing for semi passive use; this means you can add an aftermarket fan of your own to suit your build. The cooler also comes equipped with a massive 53 x 40mm base plate, perfect for many of the flagship CPUs on the market, such as the new Core i7 models.
