Figure 4 illustrates the side of the cooler, where the design is clear to see. There is a 120 mm fan over the horizontal heatsink and a 92 mm fan under it, both blowing the air downwards. This design, although not presenting as much cooling performance as the tower coolers, helps in cooling the components surrounding the CPU as well as the memory modules.
