Supermicro SNK-P0078AP4 2U Active CPU Heat Sink X12

Product Overview

The Supermicro SNK-P0078AP4 is a 2U active CPU heat sink identified for the Supermicro X12 platform. It combines a heat sink with active fan cooling to help move heat away from a compatible processor and circulate air through the server chassis. Its 2U form factor is intended for rack systems with the corresponding available clearance, while the active design uses powered airflow rather than relying on passive heat dissipation alone.

This listing identifies the product by the confirmed title and model number SNK-P0078AP4. Check your server documentation and existing cooling assembly before ordering to verify that this specific heat sink is suitable for your processor, motherboard, chassis, and mounting arrangement. Compatibility can depend on the complete server configuration; the X12 designation alone does not establish fit for every X12 system.

Key Features

• Supermicro-branded CPU cooling assembly, model SNK-P0078AP4, identified for the X12 platform.
• 2U-form-factor design for use in a compatible 2U rack server with suitable internal clearance.
• Active cooling configuration: the heat sink is paired with fan airflow to help remove heat from a processor during operation.
• Designed as a server CPU cooling component, rather than a general-purpose case fan or standalone passive heat sink.
• Model-specific replacement option for users matching an existing SNK-P0078AP4 assembly or confirming compatibility through their system documentation.
• Compact rack-server cooling format intended to work within an appropriately designed server airflow path; correct chassis airflow and installation remain important.
• Useful for maintenance, repair, or replacement of a compatible CPU cooling assembly. Confirm the required mounting hardware and electrical connection for your system before purchase.
• The product title does not specify fan RPM, airflow rating, noise level, supported processor power, socket, or included accessories, so these details are not represented as confirmed specifications.
