Corsair Readies Hydro H70 CPU Water Cooler
Corsair is developing a new pre-assembled CPU water cooling kit after facing some market success with the Hydro H50. The new kit, called Hydro H70, features a more optimized coolant flow design, an improved CPU base made of copper, and a denser radiator. It makes use of two 120 mm fans on either sides of the radiator, pushing at 1,600 rpm, and pulling at 2,000 rpm. The design increases the cooler's TDP capacity, closer to elaborate water cooling loops, potentially increasing the processor's overclocking headroom. The Hydro H70 is compatible with all current CPU socket types, including LGA1366, LGA1156, AM3/AM2(+), and LGA775. UK-based online store Scan.co.uk has these up for pre-order at £65.70 (£77.20 incl. VAT). It is indicated that Corsair will officially release these next week.

WTH?
IMO they have decided that a little extra noise is ok and they believe the neg air pressure zone between the two fans (the rad) is a good thing.
I have the H50 with two NF-12p fans in a push-pull configuration and i think it's the best set up i have ever had for cooling cpu.
It seems to be a little bit quieter when turning down one of the fans RPM
(Push=1600 RPM - Pull=1400 RPM) and the same the other way around.....
And it dont influence the temp.....
Maybe that is why they have two diff. RPM´s ???

EDIT: Looks like you can buy direct from them.
also asetek makes an oem kit for VGA cards and CPU's thats who makes this cooler anyway
Why would i want a cooler that performs about the same(in temps) but has 2 noisy 2000RPM+1600RPM fans? Even if this was 10 degrees cooler, the noise would be a deal breaker.
Then theres the extra hardware you have to find a spot for.....i like corsair but i dont see the benefit of this.
I've tested many fans and only the best are silent at 1200rpm. Once you get to 1600rpm its noisy then 2000rpm is just ridiculous.
I just dont see any advantage with this setup.
I honestly don't understand why people go crazy about these allinone things since they're full of compromises and get beaten by almost any decent heatsink. Sure if you're space constrained its a decent option but otherwise...
Also, vario is better than B.
My TRUE is on its 3rd system, i've had it for a couple of years and i havent noticed any performance degradation at all so far.
