There's not a direct link to it.Look on the bottom right hand side of the site and you will see a picture there.Just click on it.

So let me get this right. It's a 'water-cooler' that has it's own coolant in it, BUT has no circulation?

I hope nobody actually buys this thing.

[franklinz]

no its got a pump on it, and its monitored by your computer just like a fan!
i wish i would of thought of that!!!!

The thing pumps whatever fluid that is in it around the already hot HSF. It looks like it might go around a separate HSF mounted on top of the fan that is blowing air of the HSF that is below it . . . the one that is already hot.

So, you have a pump that is pumping hot water around a HSF that is already hot. Might as well just stick w/ a normal HSF.

Evilrick, I'm not sure, but I think the fan blows onto the radiator, and the pump makes the coolant flow from the hot cpu, to the radiator to cool off, then it flows back to the CPU.

Time will tell if it works any better than air cooling, but it's definately an interesting idea!

Let us know how it works!

I dont believe it---no way---no how---

....I'm not really seeing the benifits of this system...your going to be moving hot water/coolant around your hs or cpu?? It would be a great idea if the water was pumped in from an outside source where as the water would be cool but just to have it sitting on top of your hot cpu or hs doesn't seem to make since to me but what do i know


hope it works for ya
