The heatsink is made by a total of 47 aluminum fins.

Part of the side of each fin is closed in order to keep as much air as possible inside without it leaking from both sides.

Each fin has a large X shaped whole in the middle cut after the Xigmatek logo obviously.

You can add up to two 120mm fans in push & pull on the Venus to further improve performance or to keep it the same with both fans running at low RPM for reduced noise levels.

The unit features 6 nickel plated copper 6mm diameter heatpipes.

Unlike most Xigmatek CPU Coolers the Venus doesn't feature an H.D.T base (Heatpipe Direct Touch) but a normal one with a mirror like finish.

Thanks to the new design of the blades the 120mm LED PWM fan included can reach speeds of up to 1800RPM and produce airflow of up to 90.3CFM at just 26dBA.

Instead of using the usual wire clips Xigmatek chose anti-vibration rubber mountings. With the fan installed the unit now measures 156mm in Height, 133mm in Width and 100mm in Depth while weighing a total of 924gr (Reported Weight/Size on both the box and site seem to be off).
