AMD are placing their latest technology under water for extra thermal control as new details emerge.
At Xfastest they have revealed images of an AIO liquid cooler (all-in-one) for the AMD FX series CPUs expected for release over the next week.
Showing off features such as:
– Easy – Bend Tubes for Maximum Flexibilty
– Quiet, High Performance Pulse Width Modulation
– Brilliant, Customizable RGB LED
– Custom Fan Speed Control Hardware
It is not clear if these will be supplied seperately or bundled in with a special ‘hydro’ packaging for a small premium.
This weekend also revealed confirmation that the coming high end 7900 series graphics cards will be using GCN (graphics core next architecture) and will be cooled by a new liquid chamber technology. Similar to the vapour chamber but has addressed the flaws that vapour chamber technology has. Cooling technology is important to controlling the thermals of the GPU as well as the noise levels from fans.
