It's a 360 radiator with three fans and connected with flexible tubing to a CPU block.

It's filled with dielectric fluid in the closed loop and the water moves through an evaporative process similar to how heatpipes work - think of the tubes as giant heatpipes.

Without the pump, lifespan is potentially forever if it doesn't leak. It comes with a 10 year warranty, the longest of any CPU cooler in the market.

It is expensive, Icegiant is taking pre orders for December delivery at $349



 
By the way, Noctua is also working on a new cooler that does the same thing as this. But noctua's version has no price or eta

Looks exceptionally flimsy or very easy to damage. May aswell do a custom loop.

I think the point of the product is to have better cooling than air coolers for high TDP CPUs, while at the same time being zero maintenance, near zero noise and few failure points. Custom loops require maintenance and have many more failure points plus have pump noise

Haven't seen tubing like that since my OG Corsair H75 aio cooler from early 2000's!
 
£279 is still cheaper than some AIO
With lcd screens etc I guess

But that tubing is ###### ugly
Looks like something a very incompetent DIY
Person made in their shed

And why does it need 3300rpm fans
No pump noise
But fans that sound like concorde taking off :cry:

Would obviously need independent reviews
To see what sort of cpu it can
Actually keep at a sensible temperature

But with aesthetics being a very big part
Of pc builds nowadays
The release version needs those tubes severely sorted
 
The images are pre-production, so I'd wager it might get a bit of an upgrade in the aesthetics department over the next 3-6 months ahead of launch.

It's still nice to see an attempt at innovation rather than just strapping LED's/LCD's to the same old product and upping the price by X% imo.
 
Loving the homebrew, ghetto vibe. It'll be interesting to see whether the heatpipe/phase change approach can get close to effect of a decent pump. To be efficient, it will have to be working at a pretty high contact temp - hard to see how this would be better than standard water cooled.

They won't be attempting to make it better than standard WC, that's not the point. They will be targeting 'good enough' to keep the current crop of chips below the thermal throttle threshold. The benefit is the silence over traditional cooling of any kind.
