Cooler Master at CES 2018: New MasterAir G100M and MA410M, MasterLiquid ML240 SMART CPU Coolers
by Gavin Bonshor on January 10, 2018 9:00 AM ESTLAS VEGAS, NV — Cooler Master has announced a new air-based CPU cooler at CES 2018, the MasterAir G100M. Also announced is addressable RGB LED lighting with a new temperature detection feature for their liquid and air coolers. The new MasterLiquid ML240 SMART all-in-one CPU cooler and new MasterAir MA410M come with the new addressable RGB lighting which allows for syncing with a variety of vendors existing certified products including ASUS, Gigabyte, ASRock, and MSI.
MasterAir G100M
The Cooler Master MasterAir G100M features a new custom heat column technology which is designed to increase the direct contact surface area for better heat dissipation and cooling performance. The entirety of the 46.3mm high column is enabled to move heat from the processor in the shortest and quickest way possible. The MasterAir G100M features a TDP of 130W which is similar to be quiet!'s Shadow Rock low profile cooler for speculative comparison. The G100M is designed for low profile systems and with more compact builds in mind, certainly not for massive overclocks due to the svelte size and TDP. Also featured is an RGB ring and fan which are compatible with RGB enabled motherboards.
Certified Addressable RGB LEDs with Temperature Detection - MasterAir MA410M and MasterLiquid ML240 SMART
Also announced at CES 2018 are Cooler Master's new RGB LED lighting with temperature detection CPU coolers, the MasterAir MA410M and MasterLiquid ML240 SMART. Both these new coolers have addressable RGB LED lighting with temperature detection. The MasterAir MA410M and MasterLiquid ML240 SMART's addressable RGB can be synced up with compatible and certified devices from companies such as ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, and ASRock, which should offer better customization with existing products such as peripherals, motherboards, and even VGA. The new SMART temperature detection allows for the changing of the RGB lighting based on the CPUs temperature which isn't necessarily a new feature on the market but is certainly new to Cooler Masters range of cooling solutions. Other products which will feature the temperature detection include the MasterLiquid ML240R, ML120R and MasterFan MF120M and MF122R-Addressable RGB.
Availability and pricing are currently unavailable at the time of writing.

So ugly :-/Bullwinkle-J-Moose - Wednesday, January 10, 2018 - link
And it won't fit in my Mini-ITX Caseso,
I Grabbed a 120mm Liquid Cooler when it was on sale for $29 @ newegg >
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N...
added a Silverstone All Black Sleeved 1-3 PWM Fan Splitter Cable 100 mm (CPF02) for $4
Now have a dual fan Liquid Cooler in a Cooler Master Mini-ITX Elite 130 case with NVidia Graphics Card and a BluRay Burner
Temps never go above 34C-36C with the 2nd fan when gaming on a 95Watt Quadcore
Temps are 5C higher with a single fan
Final thoughts.....
My Liquid Cooler is probably less expensive / does a better job and actually fits in my small case

Correction,Looking at my notes, I see it actually hit 42C one time when transferring several hundred GB of files
but idles between 20-25C

42C might have been with single fan (Need better notes)rpjkw11 - Wednesday, January 10, 2018 - link

Does Zalman still makes these? CNPS8900 was such a gem, I don't think any other low-profile coller will be so efficient.gjbaker003 - Saturday, January 13, 2018 - link
