Intel getting WET!

with the pipes being solid how are they dealing with the mobo layout of the cpu socket and the position of the rear fan hole on different cases?

I cant see it being any good at cooling tbh

The fan and rad look realy shallow and the amount of water it can hold will be tiny so it will heat up rather quickly!

the volume of water makes no difference,

problem with a kit like that is going to be fan noise, I bet its a noisy bugger.

Surley more water = cooler water as the heat will be dissapated(sp?) more

if one system was cooled by a bathful of water and one by a cupful flowing there must be a difference

nope

think about it, its a closed loop system.

Initially the bathful will be cooler but it will reach the same temp as the capful

It looks like it can be bent because of the outer layer around the pipe it keeps it from kinking.

Iv used some in tech before. But that might just be protype for the main stream version that will be designed to fit different cases and motherboard designs.

Might be something like a shower tube in the end.
