Description
The Jonsbo CR1400 DV2 ARGB redefines the expectations for compact air cooling by packing a dual-tower heatsink into a 136mm height profile. Engineered for small-form-factor (SFF) enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on thermal performance, this cooler utilizes six 6mm high-efficiency heat pipes to achieve a massive 230W TDP rating. The visual design is equally impressive, featuring a carbon fiber texture top cover integrated with dual-zone infinite mirror ARGB lighting that extends to the fan hubs, creating a deep, layered light effect that elevates any modern PC build.
This product is for:
- SFF PC Builders: Those working with Micro-ATX or Mini-ITX cases that require a low-profile height of 136mm without sacrificing the cooling power of a dual-tower design.
- High-Performance Gamers: Users running Intel Core i7/i9 or AMD Ryzen 7/9 processors who need reliable 230W TDP heat dissipation during intense gaming sessions.
- RGB Enthusiasts: Builders looking for sophisticated lighting, specifically the "infinite mirror" effect on both the top plate and the dual 92mm fans.
- Value-Conscious Overclockers: Individuals seeking a cost-effective alternative to liquid cooling that still offers six nickel-plated heat pipes for superior thermal conductivity.
- Professional Workstation Users: Those requiring a quiet yet powerful cooling solution for long-duration rendering or computational tasks on LGA 1700 or AM5 platforms.

Installing the CR1400 DV2 is a straightforward process thanks to its refined mounting hardware, which ensures even pressure across the CPU integrated heat spreader. In real-world testing, the dual 92mm fans operate with a balanced acoustic profile; at idle, they are virtually silent at 800 RPM, while under full load, the 2300 RPM peak provides the necessary static pressure to push air through the dense fin stacks. The carbon fiber finish on the top cover feels premium to the touch, and the infinite mirror effect provides a sense of depth that standard LEDs cannot match, making the interior of the case look significantly more high-end.
Compared to standard single-tower 92mm coolers, the CR1400 DV2 offers significantly more surface area for heat dissipation, allowing it to compete with larger 120mm single-tower units while maintaining better RAM and case clearance. While many budget coolers use four heat pipes, Jonsbo’s inclusion of six nickel-plated pipes provides a thermal headroom usually reserved for much bulkier heatsinks. Against liquid AIOs, this air cooler offers a "set-and-forget" reliability with a 40,000-hour fan lifespan and no risk of pump failure or leaks, making it a safer long-term investment for mission-critical systems.
Q&A:
- Will the Jonsbo CR1400 DV2 fit in a Mini-ITX case? Yes, with a height of only 136mm, it is designed to fit in most compact chassis where standard 155mm+ coolers would fail to clear the side panel.
- Does this cooler support the latest Intel and AMD sockets? Absolutely, it includes mounting brackets for Intel LGA 1700 and AMD AM5, ensuring compatibility with the newest generations of processors.
- Can I control the ARGB lighting through my motherboard? Yes, the cooler uses a standard 5V 3-Pin ARGB interface, making it compatible with ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, and ASRock Polychrome.
- Is the 230W TDP rating sufficient for high-end CPUs? Yes, the 230W rating is optimized for high-performance chips like the i7 or Ryzen 9 under standard and boosted workloads, provided your case has adequate airflow.
- What is the warranty period for this product? Jonsbo provides a 3-year warranty, covering both the heatsink structure and the dual hydraulic bearing fans for long-term peace of mind.
