Product information

ICE Tower Low Profile Kit: maximum cooling headroom for Bitaxe and Nerdaxe

The ICE Tower Low Profile Kit is the top stage of the ICE Tower series. Four copper heatpipes pick the heat up at the ASIC and spread it into a flat, wide fin stack, with a 60 × 15 mm Noctua fan sitting above it.

The difference to the narrow tower design is direction: instead of leading the heat upwards, the low-profile build spreads it across an area and gives the large fan the whole block to work with. Buyers describe exactly that – stronger cooling in a flat build.

Why four heatpipes and a 60 mm fan belong together

  • Four paths instead of two: more heatpipes pull the heat out of the small contact area faster, before it builds up.
  • Large area, large air volume: a 60 mm fan achieves at low speed what a 40 mm fan would have to spin up for.
  • Calm under sustained load: the bigger the buffer, the less often the fan curve steps up.
  • A base for overclocking: more frequency creates more heat – this kit is built for that.

Building flat means building wider

The kit gets its performance from area, not height. The block sits low but reaches further beyond the board than the stock cooling. In an open build that is no problem; in a tight niche or a closed case you should measure first. One customer put it neatly: technically too big – but it works.

Compatibility: Bitaxe and Nerdaxe

The kit fits Bitaxe and Nerdaxe boards, for example the Bitaxe Gamma or the Nerdaxe Gamma. It does not fit:

  • NerdQaxe models – confirmed by feedback from people who tried
  • NerdOctaxe models

Who the Low Profile Kit is for

For users who run their board under permanent load, adjust frequency and voltage or work in a warm room. The kit provides the necessary buffer.

It is overkill if your miner runs at factory settings and should sit unobtrusively on a shelf. The smaller ICE Tower Kit is enough for that.

What you need to fit it

Everything necessary is included: heatsink, 60 mm Noctua, ASIC bracket with a 4-pin mount, thermal paste, four mounting pins and the Y-splitter cable. Clean the contact surface before the swap and seat the block evenly – afterwards compare temperature and fan speed with the values from before. If you are setting the miner up again, the setup guide helps.

Accessories and sensible upgrades

  • Noctua NF-A6x15 as a replacement or second 60 mm fan on the Y-splitter.
  • Copper heatsinks for the voltage regulators, which also warm up when overclocking.

Ready to get your Bitaxe under control?

If your board reaches the temperature limit under load, the ICE Tower Low Profile Kit is the most consistent answer for Bitaxe and Nerdaxe: four heatpipes, a large fan and all the mounting hardware in one package.

Frequently asked questions about the ICE Tower Low Profile Kit

Does the Low Profile Kit fit the Bitaxe Gamma?
Yes. The kit is designed for Bitaxe and Nerdaxe boards, and the Bitaxe Gamma is one of them. It also seats correctly on the Nerdaxe Gamma – putting that device into operation is described in the Nerdaxe Gamma setup guide.
Does it fit the NerdQaxe or the NerdOctaxe?
No. The kit is not suitable for the NerdQaxe++ or the NerdOctaxe – as customers who tried it there also report.
What is the difference to the regular ICE Tower Kit?
Four copper heatpipes instead of a narrow tower, and a 60 × 15 mm Noctua instead of the 40 mm fan, at a higher price. If you do not overclock, the ICE Tower Kit is usually enough.
How much space does the cooler need?
It builds flat but reaches wider over the board than the stock cooling. In an open build that is no issue; in a tight case you should measure beforehand.
Is the fan controlled by the board?
Yes. The Noctua connects to the 4-pin mount and follows your board’s PWM fan curve; the included Y-splitter cable allows a second fan on the same header.
Is thermal paste included?
Yes. Thermal paste, ASIC bracket, four mounting pins and the Y-splitter cable are included – nothing to buy on top.
Is the kit worth it if I do not overclock?
Only to a degree. Without overclocking the gain is smaller than the price difference suggests. It becomes worthwhile with permanently high load, warm rooms or when you raise frequency and voltage.
Can I use a different 60 mm fan?
Yes, as long as it measures 60 mm and has a PWM connector. A suitable replacement is the Noctua NF-A6x15.
Is the 60 mm fan quieter than a 40 mm fan?
At the same cooling performance, usually yes: the larger fan moves the same volume of air with fewer revolutions. We do not quote numbers, because room, location and fan curve determine the result.
What is the difference to the AXP60 Copperzilla?
The AXP60 Copperzilla relies on 210 g of copper mass with two heatpipes and only fits Gamma boards. The Low Profile Kit works with four heatpipes, is designed as a complete set and fits Bitaxe as well as Nerdaxe.
Does the cooler lower the error rate in the firmware?
Not automatically. Excessive temperatures can drive error counts up, but they are only one of several causes – power supply and pool settings are worth checking too.
How involved is the swap?
Manageable: old heatsink off, clean the surface, apply paste, fix the block with the four pins, plug in the fan. Nothing is soldered – still, take a few quiet minutes so the block sits evenly.

Schnell eingerichtet

Die Einrichtung war deutlich einfacher als erwartet. Trotz der besseren Kühlleistung bleibt der Aufbau kompakt. Seit der Einrichtung läuft alles ohne Aussetzer. Mein Miner läuft damit bei gleicher Einstellung entspannter. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt für mich.

Klare Empfehlung

Nach mehreren Tagen Dauerbetrieb bin ich sehr zufrieden. Die Montage war nach kurzem Prüfen der Teile gut machbar. Der Luftstrom im gesamten Aufbau ist jetzt deutlich besser. Der Kauf hat sich für mich gelohnt.
