ID-Cooling has announced a refresh of its SE-XT V2 air cooler lineup, focusing on thermal efficiency without altering price points. The updated designs aim to balance performance and compatibility, offering solutions for users with varying cooling needs.
The SE-903-XT V2 BLACK is tailored for smaller systems, supporting CPUs up to 150 W TDP while maintaining a low profile of just 123 mm in height. Its Heatpipe Direct Touch (HDT) technology improves heat transfer by eliminating additional material layers between the CPU and heat pipes. The included PWM fan operates at noise levels as low as 29.1 dB(A), making it suitable for quiet builds.
For more demanding setups, the SE-214-XT V2 series extends support to CPUs with up to 200 W TDP. This model features four 6 mm heat pipes and a larger fin surface area, paired with a PWM fan rated for noise levels down to 27.2 dB(A). The design also includes a top cover to conceal heatpipe ends, providing a cleaner aesthetic.
Multiple variants of the SE-214-XT V2 are available, including addressable RGB and white color options, as well as a dual-fan non-RGB version. All models come with a 2-year limited warranty, ensuring reliability for users.
- Key Specifications:
- SE-903-XT V2 BLACK: $14.99, 150 W TDP, 123 mm height
- SE-214-XT V2 ARGB: $18.99, 200 W TDP, 152 mm height
- SE-214-XT V2 PLUS: $19.99, dual-fan, non-RGB
The updates to the SE-XT V2 series demonstrate ID-Cooling’s commitment to practical cooling solutions without compromising on performance or aesthetics. These coolers are designed to meet the demands of modern CPUs while offering flexibility in build configurations.
Looking ahead, industry trends suggest potential price increases for cooling solutions later this year, but these updated models remain competitive with their current pricing. The focus on thermal efficiency and structural improvements positions them as strong contenders in the mid-range cooler market.
