Supermicro SNK-P0036 1U

Supermicro SNK-P0036 1U is a passive CPU heatsink engineered for dense server environments using LGA1366 processors. Designed specifically for 1U rackmount chassis, it enables stable, fanless cooling when combined with adequate system airflow.

Key technical parameters

• Minimum chassis height: 1U – optimized for ultra-dense rack installations
• Cooling type: Passive – no integrated fan, relies on chassis airflow
• Supported CPU socket: LGA1366
• Manufacturer warranty: 36 months

Technical advantages

• Optimized for 1U servers: Low-profile design fits tightly packed rack configurations, supporting high server density in data centers.
• Passive operation: Eliminates an additional point of mechanical failure associated with active fans, supporting higher reliability and lower maintenance requirements.
• Dedicated socket support: Compatibility with LGA1366 ensures proper mounting and thermal contact with supported processors.
• Thermal management in rack airflow: Designed to work with front-to-back airflow typical for 1U chassis, enabling efficient heat transfer when used with correctly configured system fans.

Use cases

• 1U rack servers built on LGA1366 platforms
• Enterprise and hosting environments where fanless heatsinks are preferred for reliability
• Infrastructure requiring predictable, controlled thermal behavior under continuous load

Supermicro SNK-P0036 1U is a suitable choice for system integrators and administrators who need a passive cooling solution tailored to 1U chassis and LGA1366 processors, with a 36‑month manufacturer warranty for long-term deployment planning.
