Dual-Fan Active RAM Cooler

The Thermalright MC-2 ARGB Black is an active memory cooler built for desktop PC users who want stronger cooling over the RAM zone. Its dual-fan structure pushes direct airflow across the modules, while PWM control adjusts speed to match system demand. A one-step clip-on design makes installation quick and simple on DDR, DDR2, DDR3, DDR4 and DDR5 platforms.

3200 RPM Peak Speed With 20.17 dBA Noise

The two PWM fans reach up to 3200 RPM ±10% at maximum load, delivering fast cooling response when memory temperatures rise. At peak speed the unit runs at just 20.17 dBA, keeping acoustic output low during extended high-load sessions. 5V 3-pin ARGB lighting adds motherboard-synced effects for a cleaner build appearance.

Suited For Builders Prioritising Low-Noise RAM

This cooler fits users who need active airflow over memory without adding noticeable noise. It is not intended for buyers who require liquid-cooled memory solutions or passive heatsink-only designs. Builders with extreme space constraints above the DIMM slots should verify clearance before purchase.

Questions about this item

How does the 3200RPM maximum speed translate to real-world RAM cooling?

The dual PWM fans spin up to 3200RPM±10% and push air directly across the memory modules, lowering temperatures during sustained gaming or heavy multitasking while the controller scales speed to demand.

What does the 4-pin PWM and 5V 3-pin ARGB interface actually control?

The 4-pin PWM connector lets the motherboard regulate fan speed automatically, and the 5V 3-pin ARGB header syncs lighting effects with compatible board software.

Will the 4.72" by 2.56" clip-on frame clear tall heat-spreaders on my DDR5 sticks?

The one-step clip-on design mounts over standard-height modules; clearance for extra-tall DDR5 heat-spreaders depends on your specific DIMM dimensions.
