Liquid cooling expert Bitspower brought several new toys to the 2024 Computex. We began our visit by taking a close look at several all-in-one, closed loop liquid coolers by the company for the rackmount server/workstation market. With the AI development and acceleration market picking up, SMBs have rackmount GPU servers, and you'd want to minimize the thermal impact of the CPUs in your blade. That's where Bitspower steps in. The 1U/2U AIO CLCs come in platform-specific variants—Intel Socket E, Socket E2; or AMD Socket SP5; connected to radiators that are designed for 1U/2U cases; and meant to be paired with server fans.

Next up, Bitspower showed us certain gaming PC AIO CLCs with direct-die cooling water blocks. These coolers come with conventional 360 mm radiators, but their blocks feature a surface meant to make direct contact with the CPU die. We're not sure if the cooler includes a de-lidding kit, but one was shown next to the cooler. We could only spot coolers for LGA1700 "Raptor Lake." Next up, the company showed us their Concept X CPU water block with a clear acrylic top that has magnetized edges. You can easily install and replace 'tops' on top of this top. These tops include frosted acrylic, a top that appears like POM acetal, brushed aluminium, among others—anything that sticks like a fridge magnet.

Bitspower brought a large bag of new toys at the 2024 International CES. The first thing that caught our attention was a familiar-looking case with infinity reflection lighting. On a closer look, it turned out to be a Lian Li PC-O11D Evo XL that's been given a neat aesthetic uplift thanks to the new Enigma Light Panel kit by Bitspower. You arrange these along the edges of your side- and front panels, and the provide an impressive, infinity reflection effect. It works with standard 3-pin ARGB, so you can mix it with your regular lighting setup. Next up, are a slew of CR Slim series reservoirs that are designed in the distribution plate format, which they line up with one of your glass panels, providing a better view of your coolant. There are various sizes, ranging from 120 mm x 120 mm, going all the way up to 803 mm. x 140 mm, with fitting ports at strategic locations to align with your CPU and VGA blocks, and radiators. The reservoirs come with preparation for a standard D5 pump, and feature a side cover that has the ARGB LED lighting, the diodes aren't studded into the acrylic as such. Bitspower released a mounting brackets of various sizes to help you correctly mount the reservoirs and accessories in place.

Liquid cooling major Bitspower, which sells both DIY and AIO liquid cooling solutions under its own brand, as well as serves as OEM for other brands, came out with a comprehensive lineup of new products at the 2023 Computex. We begin our stroll of their booth with the Summit lineup of CPU water-blocks and CPU area monoblocks. The company showed us their Summit series LGA4677 block for Intel Xeon W workstations, made of nickel-plated copper and POM acetal tops. These completely dwarf the company's Summit series blocks for AMD sWRX8/sTRX4 Threadripper sockets. The company also showed off a series of CPU area monoblocks. These are motherboard model-specific rather than socket-specific, because they have to be tailored not just for the socket, but also the components in its vicinity, such as CPU VRM.

The innovative new Summit M Silent is designed to reduce noise caused due to coolant flow (by bubbles and vortexes). This is essentially a nickel-plated copper plate that guides coolant through the micro-fin lattice. While the block material is copper with acrylic top, these blocks have additional brushed aluminium top-plates. The Summit M Pure lacks this feature, and is a typical copper+acetal block. Both the Summit M Pure and Summit M Silent come in Socket LGA1700 and Socket AM5 variants. The AMD variants have design-level optimization for the MCM layout of "Raphael," "Vermeer," and "Matisse." Bitspower also showed us a plethora of new fittings, including 45° extenders, 90° extenders, rotary fittings, and static ones. These come in four color options—black, brass, white, and chrome. All four are made of brass. The company also showed us their CR series flat-type and cuboidal reservoirs with provision for integrated pumps.

Bitspower today introduced the Low-Profile M.2 SSD Armor, an M.2 SSD heatsink which, as its name suggests, is designed to be compact. This should come in handy for cooling mid-thru-performance segment drives that lack heatsinks, or for making them fit for use with PlayStation 5. The Bitspower heatsink is a simple hunk of extruded anodized aluminium, along with a thermal pad, and elastic bands that hold the heatsink in place. The heatsink is 22.2 mm in width, 70 mm in length, and 5 mm in height (thickness). The company didn't reveal pricing information.

Bitspower today introduced the Nebula VGA full-coverage water-block for the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX reference-design graphics card (model: BP-VG7900XTXRD). The block uses nickel-plated copper as its main material, and comes with a clear-acrylic top that's studded with addressable-RGB LEDs. It also includes a metal backplate. The block features a mirror-finish contact area for the GPU, and comes with thermal-pads for the card's twelve GDDR6 memory chips, and its VRM areas. The lighting setup takes in a common 3-pin ARGB connection. The block itself comes with industry-standard G1/4" threads for fittings. The block measures 270 mm x135.5 mm x 30.7 mm. Up for pre-order, the Nebula RX 7900 XTX FC-block is priced at the equivalent of USD $250.

Here's the first picture of the ASRock Radeon RX 7900 XTX AQUA, marking the debut of the company's top-of-the-line AQUA brand to its graphics card lineup. The ASRock AQUA line of motherboards come with liquid monoblocks that let you cool the processor, chipset, and CPU VRM using your own DIY liquid-cooling loop. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX comes with a factory-fitted full-coverage water block. The OEM of this block is unknown (could be either CoolIT or Bitspower). The block features a nickel-plated copper primary material, with an acrylic top and vinyl film for the brushed-aluminium look. The top is studded with addressable RGB LEDs. The block sits on top of ASRock's most premium custom-design PCB for the RX 7900 XTX, which pulls power from three 8-pin PCIe power connectors.

Bitspower, one of the world's leading suppliers of water-cooling equipment for performance computers, today launched the Bitspower AM5 kit which can transform AMD-based Bitspower CPU water blocks into an AM5-compatible product. More and more setups used by gamers, streamers, and creators will harness AMD's new AM5 platform, which provides native support for up to 170 W—meaning there's power to do more, play more, and create more than ever before. However, with this increased power comes higher temperatures.

Fortunately, AMD has ensured that existing AM4 cooling solutions can be supported with their newest motherboards, with the product's height and port distance being managed in a 7 mm increment. With the new AM5 kit, Bitspower's current range of AMD CPU blocks can directly migrate to AM5 socket motherboards. The company's latest generation CPU water blocks, such as the M Pro Water Blocks, are optimized for cooling Ryzen 7000-series CPUs, allowing users to take that already-powerful processor to new heights.

An AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX 64-core/128-thread workstation processor was overclocked to 5.15 GHz all-core by Taiwanese overclocker TSAIK, under extreme cooling, and it [predictably] crushed the Cinebench R23 world-record. The chip scored a godlike 116142 points in the multi-threaded benchmark, ahead of the previous record-holder—105170 points scored on a Threadripper 3990X, by Splave.

The 5995WX, as we mentioned, was subjected to extreme cooling, using liquid-nitrogen. using a Bitspower-made evaporator. The chip was supported by 128 GB of octal-channel DDR4-3200 memory, and an MSI PRO WS WRX80 motherboard. Windows 10 21H2 was the OS of choice. Threadrippers will continue to dominate multi-threaded CPU benchmark leaderboards until Intel can put up a fight with an HEDT variant of its upcoming "Sapphire Rapids" processor.

Here are some of the first pictures of the drool-worthy GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Hall of Fame (HOF) OCLab Edition graphics card, courtesy of Duck OC. This is the first production graphics card to feature two ATX 3.0 16-pin power connectors, each capable of delivering 600 W of power. The card's power limit out of the box is reportedly as high as 516 W, and as we've discussed in an older article, the decision to go with a dual 16-pin connector setup may have to do with limited availability of PSUs with 16-pin connectors, and enthusiasts relying on the NVIDIA-designed adapter that converts three 8-pin PCIe power connectors to a 16-pin, for a maximum power of "just" 450 W.

The RTX 3090 Ti HOF OCLab Edition sticks to the long tradition of GALAX HOF graphics cards with white PCBs, with plenty of overclocker-relevant features such as consolidated voltage measurement points, a decluttered component layout for volt-modding, anti-condensation surface-treatments on the PCB, dual-BIOS, and lots more. The card features a 28-phase VRM, with 24 phases for the GPU, and 4 phases for the memory. The OCLab Edition SKU in particular comes with an included full-coverage water block sourced from Bitspower. The block features nickel-plated copper as its primary material, and a clear-acrylic top that's studded with addressable-RGB LEDs. There's also an air-cooled variant of this card, but it lacks the OCLab tuning.

Bitspower, one of the world's leading suppliers of water-cooling equipment for performance computers, has launched the Bitspower Digital Leak Detector—an easy to use, handheld device that allows water-cooling enthusiasts to check for leaks quickly and accurately. The Digital Leak Detector features a digital pressure gauge and an integrated, hand-operated air pump to pressurize the system. The device is equipped with a rotatable male 1/4" connecting port, so it can be attached directly to any standard port on a water-cooling system.

Before filling a water-cooled loop with water, users can simply attach the Digital Leak Detector to their system, pressurize the system with an air pump, and keep the system in a closed state. The pressure of the system is displayed on the easy-to-read digital screen, and allows users to see if any air is escaping. If the pressure is kept constant, it demonstrates that the loop has been sealed effectively.

Bitspower, one of the world's leading suppliers of water-cooling equipment for performance computers, has unveiled its most powerful and high-performance water block for Intel and AMD CPUs: the Summit M Pro. The Summit M Pro is a highly efficient water-cooling solution that's compatible with the latest CPUs from the two major manufacturers, including Intel's 12th-gen Alder Lake processors.

The water block brings major upgrades in performance due to its expanded cooling liquid capacity, along with increasing the heat dissipation effect on the CPU's core. These features help to substantially boost heat transfer, ensuring optimal cooling for some of the most powerful processors on the market today.
To further improve heat dissipation, the water block features a base plate made from highly conductive copper, while its water injection system has been optimised to allow for high flows of coolant.

Bitspower is known almost entirely for its DIY liquid-cooling products, but is looking to expand into the air-based cooling space. The company is ready with the Bitsport Phantom, a tower-type CPU air cooler. The cooler features a conventional tower-type design, in which four 6 mm-thick copper heat-pipes make direct contact with the CPU at the base, conveying heat through the fin-stack. The heat-pipes are capped at the ends, and the top-plate has a slick looking insert with the Bitspower logo in the center. The fin-stack is ventilated by a 120 mm addressable-RGB illuminated fan. The cooler supports the latest LGA1700 socket. Specs related to the fan and heatsink, as well as pricing and availability information, remains unknown.

Bitspower today introduced the TouchAqua Sedna Torque, a custom-design reservoir+pump combo for the Antec Torque case. This was earlier part of the Sedna Torque kit. The reservoir is made almost entirely of clear acrylic, and includes a Bitspower P5D pump. The reservoir puts out ports and just the right spots to connect a CPU block and a VGA block with minimal tubing. The reservoir holds about 300 ml of coolant on its own, which the P5D circulates at a flow-rate of up to 14.5 liters/minute, with a peak power draw of 20 W, and noise output just under 40 dBA. The reservoir is studded with addressable RGB LEDs that connect to any standard 3-pin ARGB header. Available now, the TouchAqua Sedna Torque is priced at $180.

Bitspower today introduced the XYZ, a small pump+reservoir contraption for small to medium-size liquid cooling loops involving single 240 mm to 360 mm radiators. Made almost entirely of clear acrylic with an attached pump, the XYZ can hold up to 180 ml of coolant in a zig-zag tube-shaped channel, including a flow indicator. The integrated Bitspower P5D pump offers a flow-rate of up to 14.5 L/m, with a maximum noise output of 40 dBA. It can be regulated using standard 4-pin PWM signal. The acrylic body is studded with addressable RGB LEDs that take in standard 3-pin headers, and can be controlled via software. Available now, the XYZ is priced at the equivalent of USD $160.

Bitspower is on a streak of developing distribution-reservoirs for popular high-end PC cases under the Sedna brand. After launching the TouchAqua Sedna for the Lian Li PC O11D, we see the company develop a similar solution for the In Win 303C. Made almost entirely of acrylic and gaskets, the Sedna 303C latches onto an included 240 mm x 120 mm radiator, as shown in the images below.

The main distro-plate puts out in/outlets at just the right spots to connect the CPU- and VGA water-blocks (and reduce tubing clutter), while a 141 ml cylindrical reservoir is attached on one end, factory-fitted with a Bitspower SC1 pump, with a maximum flow-rate of 960 L/h, and 5 m pressure head. Along with the radiator, you get a pair of 120 mm BPTA-FX120PWM-DRGB fans. The distro-plate body is studded with addressable-RGB LEDs. Available now, the TouchAqua Sedna 303C is priced at roughly $350 USD.

Bitspower today unveiled a pair of innovative liquid-cooling products for high-end graphics cards. First up is the premium Mobius water block for the GeForce RTX 3090 Founders Edition; and next up, is the X-TEND Backplate for ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3090 series. The Mobius (model number: BPPRE-VG3090FEID) takes advantage of the compact PCB of the RTX 3090 FE to give you a compact 2-slot solution, with the plumbing located at its tail-end, rather than along the top (where NVIDIA's fancy 12-pin power connector is located). The block uses nickel-plated copper as its main material, with a chunky tinted acrylic top that's wrapped around by an alloy scaffolding that attempts to resemble NVIDIA's original product design. The top is studded with addressable-RGB LEDs.

The X-TEND Backplate for ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3090 is an interesting product. It's a backplate that features a small water block that pulls heat from the GDDR6X memory chips located at the reverse side of the PCB, as well as heat from right behind the GPU. A distributor is included, so you can share coolant with your main water block that's on the obverse side of the PCB. Barring the centrally-located water block, the X-TEND is made mainly of acrylic, with a PE-film cover, and is studded with addressable RGB LEDs. The Mobius for RTX 3090 FE is priced at USD $425, while the X-TEND liquid-cooled backplate for the ROG Strix RTX 3090, is priced at $198.

Bitspower today unveiled its top full-coverage water-block that's compatible with the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, RX 6800 XT and RX 6800 "Big Navi" reference graphics cards; the Premium Mobius BPPRE-VG6900XTID. This 2-slot thick block uses nickel-plated copper as its primary material, combining it with a top that's essentially clear acrylic, but with an aluminium alloy cladding that resembles the styling of the reference cooling solution. The coolant never makes contact with the cladding. The acrylic top is studded with addressable-RGB LEDs, which take in a standard 3-pin ARGB connection. A matching back-plate made of anodized aluminium comes included with the block. The block comes with four G1/4" threads. Available now, the Premium Mobius BPPRE-VG6900XTID is priced at USD $320.

Bitspower today unveiled a Classic series full-coverage water block for the Galax/KFA2 GeForce RTX 3090 EX Gamer graphics card (model: BP-VG3090GXEXG). This card features a slight variation of the NVIDIA reference-design board for the GA102, and is found in a number of custom-design cards by Galax, KFA2, and other AIC partners that source from Galaxy Tech. The Bitspower Classic water-block for this card uses nickel-plated copper as its primary material, pulling heat from the GPU, VRM, and memory chips on the obverse side of the PCB. An aluminium back-plate is included along with thermal-pads, to pull heat form the memory chips on the reverse side. It features clear acrylic top. This top is studded by addressable-RGB LEDs that take input from a standard 3-pin ARGB header. The block supports standard G 1/4" fittings. It measures 264 mm x 138 mm x 28 mm (LxHxW). Available now, it is priced at USD $250.

Bitspower today introduced its Classic full-coverage water-block for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition (model: BP-VG3070FE). The block also works with the RTX 3060 Ti Founders Edition, which shares its PCB with the RTX 3070 FE. A simple boxy shape defines this block, which is exactly 17.14 cm long, aligning with the short reference PCB of the RTX 3070 FE. Nickel-plated copper is the primary material, capped off with a clear acrylic top that's studded with addressable RGB LEDs. A matching aluminium backplate comes included with the block, as are thermal pads for the memory and VRM. The block measures 171.4 mm x 125 mm x 28.4 mm (LxWxH), and comes with G 1/4" threads for your fittings. Available now, the BP-VG3070FE is priced at USD $175.

Bitspower has announced a new addition to their VGA waterblock lineup in the form of the Mobius, a specialty-designed waterblock that's meant to fit only NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3080 Founder's Edition. The Mobius has been engineered to mimic the original NVIDIA design, but trades the traditional dual-fan configuration for a higher-performance cooling solution that stays true to NVIDIA's original design vision for the Founder's Edition.

The waterblock features a nickel and chromium-plated copper base plate, engineered with direct contact technology to cool both the GPU chip and VRM circuitry. The Mobius features an acrylic cover which supports Bitspower's Digital RGB LED technology - which has sync capabilities with popular 3rd party RGB software (ASUS AURA Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, MSI Mystic Light Sync, ASRock Polychrome, BIOSTAR VIVID LED DJ, and Razer Chroma). The waterblock features a cutout for NVIDIA's reference 12-pin power connector, and an additional RGB sync cable that extrudes from the PCIe connector side of the waterblock. the Bitspower Mobius waterblock for NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3080 FE is being listed at $325.

Bitspower today released its Classic series full-coverage water blocks for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 Founders Edition graphics cards (model numbers: BP-VG3090FE and BP-VG3080FE). The two cards take advantage of the short PCB length of NVIDIA's Founders Edition PCBs, and position their coolant terminals at the tail ends, rather than at the top.

The blocks use nickel-plated copper as primary material, with mirror finish at the GPU and memory contact areas. The top is clear acrylic, and studded with addressable RGB LEDs. A back-plate is included with the block. The main coolant channel passes through nearly all hot-zones on the obverse side of the PCB, including the GPU, the up to 24 memory pads, and DrMOS. Even the RTX 3080 variant includes a back-plate, possibly in anticipation of the 20 GB variant that has memory chips on the reverse side of the PCB. The BP-VG3080FE is priced at USD $158, while the BP-VG3090FE goes for $202.

Bitspower today introduced a CPU+VRM monoblock tailor-made for the MSI MEG Z490 Ace motherboard (model: BP-MBMZ490ACE). The monoblock provides liquid cooling to the Socket LGA1200 CPU and the adjoining CPU VRM solution, by making contact with its hottest components, the DrMOS, via thermal pads. The CPU contact area features a mirror finish, so you get to use your own TIM. The primary material of the monoblock is nickel-plated copper, coupled with a clear acrylic top that's studded with addressable RGB LEDs. The main coolant channel passes over the VRM area, and a micro-fin lattice over the CPU socket. Available now, the Bitspower BP-MBMZ490ACE is priced at USD $205.

In addition to the CPU+VRM monoblock for the Z490 AORUS Master, Bitspower also introduced the Baircool TP-1 thermal compound. This is a graphene-based, non-silicone thermal interface material that boasts of being "long term stable," non-corrosive, electrically non-conductive, and does not require burn-in after application, with a short dry-out period. The compound offers 6.5 W/m-K thermal conductivity, and 0.009 K-in²/W thermal impedance. With under 600,000 CPS, it's rated among the less viscous compounds, and has a specific gravity of 2.5 g/cm³. Its dielectric strength is rated at 0.9 KV/mm. The Baircool TP-1 comes in a 2.5 g tube priced at USD $9.70, and a 5 g tube at $13.80.

Bitspower today introduced a CPU+VRM monoblock for the GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS Master motherboard (mode: BP-MBGAZ490AM). Tailored for GIGABYTE's second most endowed product series based on the Intel Z490 chipset, the monoblock uses nickel-plated copper as its primary material, with a clear acrylic top that's studded with addressable-RGB LEDs. The block cools the Socket LGA1200 processor through its main micro-fin lattice, while the coolant channel flows over even the VRM MOSFETs. Bitspower includes thermal pads for contact between the monoblock and the MOSFETs, however, it leaves the choice of TIM over the CPU to the end-users. The block comes with a mirror finish at the CPU base. Bitspower says that the monoblock is also compatible with the GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS Ultra, however you should be mindful with your VRM thermal pad placement. The monoblock takes in standard G 1/4" fittings (not included). Available now, the Bitspower CPU+VRM monoblock for GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS Master is priced at USD $200.

Bitspower is on a spree to release Touchaqua Sedna liquid cooling kits specific to popular cases. Last week, the company rolled out a kit for the Antec Torque series, and now we see one for the Lian Li PC O11 Dynamic series cases. Much like the kit form last week, the BPTA-WDPO11DA-KIT by Bitspower includes a distro plate+reservoir+pump combo that's been designed specifically for the case in its model name (the O11 Dynamic series). You replace the tempered glass front panel that came with your O11 with this plate, either completely see-through, or with an included aluminium cover plate. Other inclusions include a 360 mm radiator (Touchaqua Tarasque II 360S), a trio of Njord 120 mm fans, a Lotan full-coverage VGA water block that's compatible with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20-series graphics cards, a Touchaqua Summit CPU water block for Intel sockets, fittings, an RGB controller, tubing, and coolant. Available now, the Touchaqua Sedna Kit for Lian Li O11 Dynamic series is priced at USD $680.
