Need big cooling performance behind that big CPU? That’s exactly what Thermaltake’s WATER3.0 Extreme has been designed for. Featuring a double-length radiator design and strapped with two 120mm high CFM fans, the Extreme is preparing itself for a good fight, whether it’s against an overclocked quad-core, or brawny six-core.

Let's test the SilverStone TD02, a liquid cooling system for processors. It has a 240 mm radiator with two 120 mm fans side by side and a full metallic CPU block.

Silverstone’s recent commitment to high end cooling is clearly on display in their new Tundra TD02 and TD03 AiO liquid coolers. We have appreciated (and many times marveled at) Silverstone’s engineering and build quality in the past, and they have carried this over to make the 240mm Tundra TD02 and 120mm TD03 truly unique in the world of AiO coolers. At first glance, it is very noticeable that the radiator is thicker than what has come before, measuring at 45mm, but even the Tundra’s fins have been changed to use a planar fin that offers up to 40% more heat dissipation than traditional fins. Elsewhere in the Tundra’s makeup, we find a unique lack of plastic components we are accustomed to, and find them replaced with metals. The pump housing and block of the Tundra TD02 and TD 03 uses a patented screwless design, and is comprised entirely of metal. This lessens chances of leaks, as well as improving overall strength and durability. The mounting kit for the block again replaces plastic and thin metal clips with forged aluminum, and a design that makes for incredibly easy installation on all current Intel and AMD sockets. Both the TD02 and TD03 are equipped with dual 120mm fans capable of 90.5 cfm at 2500 rpm, but produce only 18 dBA at full speed for a quiet experience. Unique radiator trim is finished in white with silver surround around the radiator, and is perfect for painting for those looking to mod. The Tundras are completed with 330mm white corrugated FEP tubing.

Dopo la presentazione dei prodotti Tundra di Silverstone, che potete trovare QUI, oggi finalmente analizziamo il modello TD03: signore e signori, il primo modello proprietario del famoso produttore asiatico, con circuito chiuso a liquido (AIO)! Sono stati presentati due modelli, il TD02 con radiatore da 240mm ed il TD03, con radiatore da 120mm. Il design è completamente nuovo e sono presenti numerose innovazioni strutturali che sulla carta permettono un netto miglioramento qualitativo rispetto ai modelli della concorrenza. Il fatto che Silverstone abbia messo il suo zampino, certamente fa ben sperare, ed a prima vista è inutile far presente che è senza ombra di dubbio la soluzione più bella tra quelle immesse in commercio fin d’ora, se si esclude il modello Cooler Master Eisberg. Analizziamo insieme dunque il Silverstone TD03, buona lettura.

XSPC takes the guesswork and complications out of diving into liquid cooling with the Raystorm 750 RS 240 Kit, and solves much of the monetary angst as well. The XSPC Raystorm 750 RS240 Kit offers a complete dual 120mm radiator, open loop water cooling kit featuring matched top quality components and fittings all in one box. The kit features the high flow Raystorm CPU Block complete with Intel and AMD mounting kits. Heat exchange is handles by the dual 120mm RS240 copper/brass radiator using two 1650rpm high static fans. The dual 5.25” bay BayRes 750 features a windowed reservoir and enclosed pump capable of 750 lph and 1.8m head pressure. Rounding out the kit are black chrome plated brass ½” barb fittings along with 2m of 7/16” ID clear tubing and all necessary clamps. To add a bit of eye candy, blue accent LEDs are included for the CPU block and reservoir window. An easy to follow manual makes installation easy for even a water cooling novice. With the unexpectedly low retail price of $149.95, the Raystorm 750 RS240 Kit represents an incredible value with included components costing over 50% more if purchased separately. Just add coolant, and the Raystorm 750 RS240 Kit will provide the rest.

Today we are going to take a look at an entry-mid level water-cooling bundle and how it compares to a factory sealed equivalent while also finding out how it could be expanded over time. Enter the XSPC RayStorm 750 AX240 Water-cooling Kit.

Kompaktwaserkühlungen gewinnen auf dem Markt immer mehr an Beliebtheit. Besonders der Hersteller Corsair ist in diesem Gebiet ein Vorreiter. Im folgenden Vergleichs-Test haben wir die Chance, das mittlerweile recht umfangreiche Angebot an All-In-One-Kühlungen der Amerikaner auf die Probe zu stellen. Wie sie sich die Hydros in Form der H55, H60, H80i, H90, H100i und H110 im direkten Vergleich mit einem der besten Luftkühler schlagen, klären wir in diesem Test.

The SilverStone Tundra TD03 Liquid Cooler is an all-in-one cooler that looks great, is maintenance free, well constructed, has an aluminum radiator, comes with a copper waterblock and includes two 120mm fans. This is an outstanding product that performs very well.

Recently we published a review of the Thermaltake Water 3.0 Pro liquid CPU cooler and I was inundated on the forums, main site and on the Facebook page with requests to review Corsair’s H80i. Most people believed the Corsair H80i was a direct competitor to the Thermaltake Water 3.0 Pro that needed to be tested for comparative purposes. Shortly after this I spoke with Corsair and they very kindly sorted us out with a H80i for review which leads us on to today’s review.
Corsair’s H80i is one of the most premium solutions of the Corsair Hydro Series and it sits just below the Corsair H100i in terms of its market placement. You can check out our review of some other Corsair Hydro Series products below, note particularly the H90 and H100i as the closest H80i competitors from within Corsair’s own product series.
Corsair H55
Corsair H90
Corsair H100i
Corsair H110
Without any further ado let us get on with the testing of this Corsair H80i liquid CPU cooler and see how it stacks up against the competition.

Nous pensions en avoir fini avec la série des AIO, c'était sans compter le fait qu'il nous en manquait un : le H100i. Corsair a rapidement corrigé l'erreur et nous a fait parvenir un exemplaire de son 240mm phare. Du coup, nous aurons un tour d'horizon quasi exhaustif de la production des AIO disponible sur le marché. Clairement, le H80i est performant mais au coût de nuisances sonores assez importantes. La grande question qui se pose est celle de savoir si le H100i résout l'équation performances / nuisances. Voyons donc cela dans le détails.
