INTER-TECH Dynatron A26 CPU Cooler — Aluminium/Black, Ball Bearing, 1600–8000 RPM, for Socket SP3

INTER-TECH Dynatron A26 is an active CPU cooler designed for systems using the Socket SP3 platform. It combines an aluminium frame with a black finish and a compact side‑blower fan measuring 60 x 60 x 25 mm. The fan uses a ball bearing and operates with PWM control across a wide speed range to provide focused airflow for 2U servers and similar high-density enclosures.

Advantages

The cooler delivers high rotational speeds (up to 8000 RPM) and a relatively high maximum static pressure, making it effective at forcing air through heatsinks and tight chassis. Its compact side‑blower form factor and PWM support enable integration into 2U server layouts where space is limited while still allowing variable fan control to balance cooling and acoustics.

Suitable for

• 2U rackmount servers and dense server chassis
• Workstations or systems using AMD EPYC processors on Socket SP3
• Environments requiring compact, high‑speed airflow for heatsink cooling

When it may not be suitable

This cooler is intended for Socket SP3 platforms and compact server form factors; it is not suitable for consumer desktop sockets or large tower air coolers. Its high maximum fan speed and focused blower design can produce noticeable noise at top RPM, which may be undesirable in noise‑sensitive environments.

Key specifications

• Fan dimensions: 60 x 60 x 25 mm
• Fan type: side‑blower, ball bearing
• Speed range: 1600–8000 RPM (PWM controlled)
• Airflow and pressure: up to 43.75 CFM and 19.04 mmH2O
• Typical noise level at maximum speed: up to 53 dB
• Material and colour: aluminium body with black finish
• Intended platform: Socket SP3 (AMD EPYC)
• Weight: 0.45 kg

How to use

Install the Dynatron A26 onto a compatible Socket SP3 motherboard following the server or chassis manufacturer’s mounting instructions. Connect the fan’s PWM power cable to the appropriate header on the motherboard or fan controller to allow automatic speed regulation. Ensure the cooler orientation aligns the side‑blower airflow with the chassis airflow path and that surrounding components do not obstruct intake or exhaust.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility with Socket SP3 and the server chassis (clearance for 60 x 60 x 25 mm blower)
• Confirm the chassis airflow direction to match the side‑blower orientation
• Consider acoustic limits—high RPM operation can be loud

Usage recommendations

Use PWM control to allow the motherboard or a fan controller to adjust fan speed based on CPU temperature. In noise‑sensitive deployments, configure conservative fan curves or limit maximum RPM to reduce audible noise while maintaining safe CPU temperatures.
