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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Fix the cause instead of treating the symptom ...

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 ...

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 ...

As computing power increases with each new iteration of processors, actual power consumption tends to increase as well. All that waste heat has to go somewhere, and while plenty of us are content to ...

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 ...
