Building a powerful PC often raises one big question: is water cooling necessary for PCs, or is air cooling enough? With modern CPUs pushing higher wattage and turbo speeds, thermal management plays a ...

Custom water cooling just took another step towards being a viable option for many more system builders, thanks to Corsair. With its Corsair CH405i iCUE Link water cooling kit, it has provided a ...

Intel has revealed that it's experimenting with direct CPU water cooling, where an Intel CPU package has a waterblock built onto it to remove as much heat as possible from the chip. The company has ...

Computers get hot, and they must be cooled. Your average store-bought PC uses a system of fans to pull heat off major components such as the CPU (central processing unit), graphics processor and hard ...

One of my favorite things about PC hardware is that it’s always getting better. Every year I get to enjoy the latest CPUs, GPUs, and memory advances and watch those numbers go up in turn. But there’s ...

There are quite literally thousands of PC cases out there, but not all of them are a good choice for designing and building a custom water-cooling loop inside. Something like the NZXT H210i may look ...

Fix the cause instead of treating the symptom ...

All-in-one water-cooling systems are becoming increasingly popular for cooling CPUs. However, compact water cooling systems not only have advantages, but also disadvantages compared to conventional ...

While water cooling may seem like the best option, as it's the most common, that doesn't mean it's the best.

If you are building a PC water cooling loop to help keep your hardware as cool as possible during those heavy workloads you may be interested in a new piece of kit in the form of the digital leak ...

Liquid cooling in transmitters may sound complex, but the principles behind it mirror systems used in computing, government and other applications.

Modern computers generate a great deal of heat when under load, thus we cool them with fans and sometimes even water cooling systems. [Doug MacDowell] figured that water was alright, but why not use ...
