Is not responsible for any damages due to external causes, including but not limited to, improper use, problems with electrical power, accident, neglect, alteration, repair, improper installation, or improper testing. 1 Safety Notices TNN 500AF is the world’s first truly noiseless high-end computer case, developed with heatpipe technology, HSC(Heat Source Contact) power technology, High Capacity Extrusion technique, and FMS (Flexible Mounting Structure) design technology by ZALMAN Tech Co., Ltd. The TNN 500AF package contains a high performance aluminum computer case with an absolutely noiseless cooling solution for the CPU, VGA Card, Power Supply, and Northbridge free of fans, making it ideal for storage servers, workstations, high-end home systems, and sound studio computer systems. 1) Complete Silence The cooling system does not generate any noise because it does not utilize any fans. Even the HDD noise is blocked out by the sturdy aluminum plates 5 to 7mm thick, achieving completely silent computing. 2) Stability . No Fans in the System The majority of heat generated inside the system is transferred through heatpipes to the heatsink plates where it is dissipated via natural convection, reducing inflow of dust dramatically. Consequently, this prevents system crashes caused by dust buildup and fan failures (fans last around 20,000 to 50,000 hours). . High-Capacity Aluminum Heatsink Plates for Natural Convection Two large aluminum heatsink plates cool heat generating components, such as the CPU and VGA Chipset, through natural convection. Without any moving parts, the TNN 500AF is virtually free of the need for mechanical maintenance, and it is 100% recyclable, making it environmentally friendly. 2 Features 2. Features 4 English TNN 500AF 2. Features English TNN 500AF 5 . Heat Transfer via Heatpipes Virtually ever-lasting heatpipes transfer heat away from the CPU, VGA chipset, and Northbridge chipset preventing system crashes due to over heating. - CPU Heatpipes Heat from the CPU is transferred to the heatsink plate through 6 heatpipes each 6 millimeters in diameter. The six heatpipes can transfer up to 150W of heat from the CPU - sufficient for the hottest CPUs on the market. The CPU Block Base is made of pure copper to ensure the highest cooling performance. - VGA Card Heatpipes Heat from the VGA Card is transferred to the heatsink plate through 3 heatpipes each 6 millimeters in diameter. The three heatpipes can transfer up to 75W of heat from the VGA chipset - sufficient for the hottest VGA cards on the market. - Northbridge Heatpipe Heat from the Northbridge chipset is transferred to the heatsink plate through a single heatpipe, 5 millimeters in diameter. This heatpipe can transfer up to 20W of heat. . Heat Transfer via Rear-mount Thermal Blocks When the Rear-mount Thermal Blocks are installed on the back-side of the motherboard in line with the position of the FETs (Field Effect Transistor) and the Northbridge chipset, each can lower the FET temperature by 10 to 30°C and the Northbridge chipset by 5 to 10°C.
