The Corsair Air Series A70/A50 CPU Coolers
If you’re serious about high-performance computing, you already
know that you’ve got to keep your PC’s CPU cool. Cooling not only
gives your CPU the headroom it needs for reliable overclocking… it
can also extend the life of your valuable investment. And, you need
something that not only significantly outperforms your CPU’s stock
heatsink, but does it quietly.
The Corsair A70 High-Performance CPU Cooler uses advanced thermal engineering technology to deliver superior air cooling performance: four 8mm copper heatpipes directly contact your CPU, and
the surface is planed to increase heat transfer efficiency. Dual speed
-selectable 120mm fans, mounted on rubber studs, spin quietly in a
push-pull configuration for optimum airflow.
Protect your valuable investment in your CPU, and enjoy faster
overclocking performance.

The Air Series—Mounting Parts
1
The A70 and A50 Air Series CPU coolers both use the same mounting methods
and hardware for AMD and Intel motherboards. For the AMD mount, no tools are
needed. The included parts are shown below and are also shown in the illustrated
installation guide included with your cooler. The kit below is for the A70 and includes a second fan. The A50 kit includes same mounting hardware and a single
fan.
The AMD installation uses the stock AMD mounting bracket and has no back plate.
AMD installation can be performed with the motherboard mounted in a case. Our
illustrations are given with the motherboard outside the case.
