Vette Corp. Announces Thermal Solutions for Popular Chipsets

Vette Corp., a global provider of thermal management solutions, announces the availability of its thermal solutions for today's most popular microprocessor chipsets. Ideal for demanding applications requiring maximum airflow with minimal headroom, Vette recommends its high-efficiency integrated fan heatsinks for applications using the Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 and 478, as well as the AMD® Athlon® 64, XP and Opteron® CPU's. Vette's standard offerings meet the needs of typical applications running over 3GHz and power levels of 80 to 90 watts. To enhance product applications and support custom designs approaching 4GHz and 100 watts, Vette supports its thermal solutions with design services, including thermal analysis, mechanical analysis, thermal testing, and fan life testing. Then Vette manufactures 100 percent of the solution - heatsink, fan, and cooler assembly - having designed each piece of the solution for a total, optimally designed solution for the highest performance at the lowest price.


As the electronics industry continues in a disruptive transition to manufacturing in China - industry analysts at IDC forecast that offshore outsourcing will quadruple by 2007. Vette makes it easy for OEMs to source high quality thermal solutions from Asian suppliers complete with applications support for their supply chain and product design operations. With Asian-based manufacturing and applications support teams across North America, Europe and Asia, Vette is unique in its ability to support OEMs with thermal solutions that are optimized to their performance, manufacturing and global supply chain requirements.

Local Support, Global Economies of Scale

According to Vette Corp. President and CEO George Dannecker, "Unlike the larger global thermal solutions suppliers that have been rendered uncompetitive by their North American manufacturing operations, Vette is able to deliver regional applications support and global supply from our Asian manufacturing base."

"Our regional support teams enable our customers' early phase design efforts with access to leading design-engineering personnel, test facilities and complete prototyping capabilities to ensure rapid design cycles of the lowest-cost, highest-efficiency thermal solutions."

"As a next step, or as an entry point for our customers that have already finished their product design, our support teams work to value engineer the thermal solution for overall cost reduction. This requires optimizing their customers' cooling solution for thermal, mechanical, acoustic, and cost constraints, as well as the concurrent production of tooling that maximizes manufacturing efficiency. Then our high-volume, high-quality manufacturing ramps up, feeding our customers' global supply chains and meeting their critical delivery deadlines," Dannecker concluded.

Vette's heatsinks for CPU's and related chipsets are currently available worldwide in all standard sizes, or can be customized to the application's specific needs.
