Koolance 1200W Liquid-Cooled Power Supply


Koolance is now offering the world's first liquid-cooled ATX power supply rated at 1200W continuous and 1400W peak power. The PSU-1200ATX-12S features 96A over four 12V rails, modular cables, and 4 PCI-Express connectors for SLI and CrossFire support. It is able to unleash 1200W of continuous (1400W peak) power at greater than 80% efficiency by operating in a completely submerged state. All internal electronics are immersed in a non-conductive fluid and dissipated through an external heat exchanger, cooled by a temperature-controlled 120mm LED fan. The unit comes pre-filled and no ongoing coolant maintenance is required. The PSU-1200ATX-12S can be used in most ATX, E-ATX, and BTX chassis that provide for 9" (23cm) power supply depths, including cable space. The external heat exchanger can be rotated 180 degrees and moved vertically 2" (5cm) to avoid physical conflicts. The Koolance 1200W Liquid-Cooled PSU should be available after Feb 28, 2007 for $499.99 USD.

HookeyStreetThis is obviously aimed at the super rich (or super stupid, take your pick LOL) with quad card setups :(
And super rich (read: anal retentive) computer geeks! :D

Bonerheimer_cIf the fluid is non conductive, it will almost surely do a much better job of convecting heat away from the parts that generate it.
The fluid relies on the air to take the heat out of it so it can keep doing its job. Dont disregard air as such a bad cooler, it still performs a major role in ANY cooling application IMO.

The heat has to go somewhere...Unless of course your pump goes into an outdoor swimming pool. But thats just nuts :laugh:

I'm not hating on air. I know the radiator uses air convection to dissipate the heat from the fluid. I was just saying a liquid + electronics does not necessarily equal fried circuity or a dangerous situation.

I didnt say that either, nor did anyone. But its still more dangerous than air :p.

....how many times do you have to read the term "non-conductive" to understand its perfectly safe. All liquid cooling systems rely on air but the actual cooling capabilities is because of the liquid. If liquid was such a bad idea then go to the case mod gallery and look at all the "morons"

where the hell are my stars
ha thats what R600 will use to run the video cards in quad xfire :roll:

250watts X 4=1kw maybe they are on to something
