Thermalright Technologies

AGHP Technology (Anti-Gravity Heat Pipe)

A special heat pipe design that prevents liquid from evaporating inside the pipe in any position of the cooler. Ensures stable operation in vertical and horizontal positions.

STT Technology (Shark Tooth Technology)

A special shape of radiator fins resembling shark teeth, which increases the surface area for heat dissipation and improves airflow aerodynamics.

S-FDB Bearing (Sonic Fluid Dynamic Bearing)

An advanced bearing with fluid dynamic friction, providing a reduced noise level and increased fan lifespan.

Direct Heat Pipe Contact (Direct Touch)

A technology in which the heat pipes directly contact the processor surface, without an intermediate copper plate, providing more efficient heat dissipation.

Market Presence in Russia

Thermalright has not officially left Russia. Equipment is supplied through official distributors and is widely represented in Russian retail. However, as with most Taiwanese manufacturers, there are logistical difficulties and increased delivery times for certain models.

In the context of import substitution, Thermalright remains in demand in the commercial sector and for high-performance workstations. For government projects and critical information infrastructure, it is recommended to consider Russian manufacturers of cooling systems included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

Warranty Periods

Thermalright products come with a warranty ranging from 1 to 6 years depending on the equipment category and delivery region. Fans — 2 years, liquid cooling systems — 3 years, thermal pastes are not covered by warranty.
