Spire Intros LCG-HSR Line of AIO Liquid CPU Coolers

[btarunr]

Spire today introduced the LCG-HSR line of all-in-one closed-loop liquid CPU coolers, with two models, the CG-AE-LCG-H24SR-P featuring a 240 mm x 120 mm radiator, and the CG-AE-LCG-H12SR-P "Solo," with a 120 mm x 120 mm radiator. These coolers are characterized by a cubical pump-block, Nylon-sleeved coolant tubes, and one or two included CG-AE-H30K3AR-6PM fans. These fans feature RGB LED diffusers along the inner and outer walls of the frame, with 16 diodes taking input from a standard 4-pin RGB connector. Unlike the fan's standalone package, Spire isn't including RGB LED controllers with these coolers.

The included fans take in 4-pin PWM input, spin between 300 to 2,000 RPM with minimum airflow of 30 CFM, and noise-level ranging between 12 to 35 dBA, each. Both coolers support most common CPU socket types, including AM4, AM3(+), LGA2066, LGA2011(v3), LGA1366, and LGA115x. Spire is listing the CG-AE-LCG-H24SR-P at USD $80 and CG-AE-LCG-H12SR-P at USD $70, in 200-unit bulk quantities. Retail prices will be higher than these.

I'd say these are good looking, but I would rather see an actual picture first.

Oh mommy, can I have lots of H2O all over the insides of my 'puter please....

Said nobody ever

The hoses, fittings and fans look like el-cheapo bottom-barrel stuff made by schoolkiddies....

Hopefully it's just the CAD renders that make them look that way

It looks somewhat similar to a Corsair H60 v1.

The older Asetek design that Spire has chosen kinda makes me worry about the longevity of this AiO.

They could pay me and even then I would refuse to put this in my system.

The fans they used are good and cheap

That's not the same fan at all, even if the RGB part looks kind of similar and both are supposedly hydraulic bearing.

I hope Reviewers give us a good reason to pick Spire AIO over Corsair Hydro or any of the other well established brands. Spire need to introduce a unique feature for their AIO's to catch attention. Market is already crowded with AIO and INTEL keep on pushing the thermal limits with 14+++ ( to the point where we will need chillers ).

Smaller blades to fit hot leds... has the world gone insane?
