MODTHEBOX would like to thank Lori Lee from CoolJag for sending the CoolJag JAC565C CPU Cooler for review.

Introduction:

CoolJag is a new player in the PC thermal solutions market. Established in 1999, they have a wide range of CPU coolers for most applications and many are designed especially for the overclocker community. CoolJag uses the latest Skiving technology to achieve maximum cooling with this new style of heatsinks. This creates a greater fin density, without any bonding material as the fins are literally cut from the main body of the heatsink. The JAC565C is made specifically for the overclocker community, featuring a solid copper heatsink and a powerful 70mm fan for optimal cooling. Today in the MTB labs, we are taking a look at the JAC565c, a heatsink designed specifically for overclocking.

Specifications:

The JAC565C follows the design of most standard coolers on the market by using an a copper base. The technology behind the design is known as Skiving Fins or Skiving Technology. The fins and the heatsink base of the JAC565C are manufacturered from the same piece of metal, with fins created by shaving away the excess metal, leaving extremely thin, slightly angled fins that provide a large amount of surface area. Here are some specifications from CoolJag’s website:
