CHIEFTEC Enters CPU Water Cooler Market With New Iceberg Series AiOs

The CHIEFTEC Iceberg is an all-in-one CPU cooler, featuring a 240 mm/360 mm water-cooling radiator and Snap-On interlocking (ARGB) PWM fans that ensure excellent heat dissipation. With fan speeds reaching up to 2200 rpm, it provides efficient cooling for a wide range of CPUs. The innovative parallel fin radiator design maximizes the contact area between water tubes and radiator fins, while maintaining a high surface area exposed to the cooling airflow, thereby enhancing overall thermal transfer and heat dissipation.

The Iceberg Series includes an infinity mirror ARGB cooling block and a 360-degree rotatable CHIEFTEC logo. Installation is hassle-free thanks to the robust braided steel tubing and the convenient mounting clip kit. The snap-on interlocking (ARGB) PWM fans minimize the number of cables ensuring an easy and clean build. The Iceberg Series is your trusted and reliable choice for pushing your CPU to maximum performance, while ensuring optimal thermals and noise levels.

LIAN LI Brings Clean Tube Routing to AIOs with HydroShift LCD Series

LIAN LI Industrial Co. Ltd., a leading manufacturer of chassis and PC accessories, launches the HydroShift LCD 360 AIOs, that allow for a nearly tubeless aesthetic once installed. There are three options available: HydroShift LCD 360S, HydroShift LCD 360R, and HydroShift LCD 360TL. Each option comes with a 2.88" LCD display at the pump block which is fully customizable via L-Connect 3.

Minimal Tubing
The HydroShift 360S, 360R, and 360TL liquid cooling AIOs have a unique design that conceals tubing to the side of the radiator, creating a clean look. The tubing is designed to sit flush against the sides using ribbed tubing commonly found in water-cooled servers, providing durability and flexibility to bend around the radiator without affecting flow. Two pre-installed retention brackets help with tubing routing, and the system includes a full-length brushed aluminum plate and left/right tube cover plates for a polished appearance. Additionally, a pump mounting hardware cover is provided for a sleek finish.

Lian Li Brings New HydroShift LCD AIO Cooler, New UNI FAN Fans, and New Strimer Cables to Computex 2024

In addition to a couple of interesting PC cases that will be coming later this year, Lian Li also brought some cooling products and other accessories to the Computex 2024 show floor, including the new HydroShift LCD AIO cooler, as well as new UNI FAN fans and Strimer cables that come with support for Lian Li's new wireless controller for PC case accessories. Lian Li also announced its collaboration with SignalRGB, launching a beta version of L-Connect 3 software, which will provide users with better and easier way to control lighting effects across all components, and it both looks and works pretty good as far as we could see at the show floor.

The new Lian Li HydroShift LCD AIO cooler, will only be available only in 360 mm size, at least for now, and come in three different versions, HydroShift LCD 360S, HydroShift LCD 360RGB, and the HydroShift LCD 360TL. The difference between the three models come in terms of radiator and fans, depending on the usage. All three feature a 2.88-inch IPS 480x480 resolution screen with 500 nits of brightness on top of a 72x72x59 mm block. The screen itself will support the aforementioned L-Connect 3 software, which can then show all the data.

Phanteks Shows New NEXLINQ Cooling System, Glacier EZ-Fit Liquid Cooling Components, and T30-140 Prototype Fan

In addition to new PC cases, Phanteks brought several new cooling products to the Computex 2024 show, including a whole new NEXLINQ cooling system, Glacier EZ-Fit series of liquid cooling components and kits, as well as a rather interesting fan prototype that will hopefully find its way to the market.

The big part of the Phanteks showcase was the NEXLINQ, a set of cooling components, or an ecosystem as Phanteks likes to describe it, which includes the M25 G2 fans, Glacier One M25 G2 AIO, and a NEXLINQ Hub. The NEXLINQ and components will feature support for the whole new LINQ-6 connector that will be able to provide both power and D-RGB lighting to the fans.

EK Introduces Loop Stainless Steel Gauge Card

EK, the renowned premium liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is proud to unveil its latest accessory that promises to streamline the assembly process for enthusiasts and professionals alike: the EK-Loop Stainless Steel Gauge Card. Crafted from durable stainless steel and designed for simplicity, this handy tool is an essential accessory for anyone involved in water cooling. Its primary function serves to drastically simplify the search for the correct assembly parts, ensuring that users can effortlessly find compatible components. Multifunctional by design yet primarily aimed at enhancing the water cooling experience, the EK-Loop Gauge Card is the accessory you didn't know you needed—until now.

Preventing Assembly Errors Before They Happen
With the Gauge Card, measuring and matching bolt and nut sizes becomes effortless. It accurately determines the bolt size and length for any component, including nut size measurements for M2.5, M3, and M4 nuts. This guarantees compatibility and ease of assembly across a wide range of components. The card also allows for the identification of different screw diameters (M4, M3.5, M3, M2.5, M2) and screw dimensions effortlessly, making it more straightforward to select the right parts for your build. Screw length identification up to 30 mm further ensures precise fitting and optimal security of components, while the tool aids in avoiding the insertion of the wrong bolts in the wrong places - thus preventing potential damage to sensitive PCBs. Moreover, the EK-Loop Gauge Card aids in the determination of Allen key sizes (2, 2.5, 6, 8, 9), simplifying the search for the right tool for the job.

EK Shows Nucleus AIO CR360 for Direct-Die Water Cooling at CES 2024

During the CES 2024 show, EK unveiled an exciting new addition to their premium all-in-one (AIO) CPU cooler lineup—the EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Direct Die D-RGB. As the name suggests, this new 360 mm AIO water cooler is purpose-built for direct die cooling of delidded Intel LGA1700 CPUs. The EK-Nucleus Direct Die stands out with its custom cold plate and mounting mechanism, which are exclusively engineered for exposed CPU dies. The nickel-plated copper base ensures compatibility with liquid metal TIMs like the included Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut, which comes in the package. EK has worked with der8auer to provide delidding service kits and tools to facilitate easy DIY removal of the integrated heat spreader (IHS).

The package also contains a contact frame and protective foam for safe liquid metal application. At the heart of the cooler is a powerful AIO pump EK co-developed with the OEM manufacturer, meaning it is not an off-the-shelf pump found in other AIOs and is capable of up to 500 L/h flow rate. The reinforced, sleeved rubber tubing is fitted with aluminium covers for durability. Integrated omnilink connectors allow daisy chaining of the three included 120 mm D-RGB fans for cable management. The EK-Nucleus Direct Die offers extensive RGB lighting customization with illuminated circle accents on the removable pump top covers. The diamond-cut brushed aluminium side panels and radiator cowl add to the premium aesthetic. The new AIO will be available for the Intel LGA1700 platform, with hopefully more versions later. The EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Direct Die D-RGB is now available for pre-order at €202.90 MSRP price tag.

EK Intros Pro Series Preformed Reinforced Tubing For Hard to Reach Components

EK, the leading computer cooling solutions provider, is expanding its soft tubing portfolio with a new tubing option from the EK Pro line. The latest product, EK-Pro Tubing 10/17 mm Reinforced EPDM Preformed 45°/90° - Black, as the name suggests, is a water-cooling tube made of reinforced EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber. While EPDM tubing is generally soft, this solution is reinforced with nylon to form a semi-hard tube with one 45 and one 90-degree angle. It is excellent for locations that aren't easily accessible, where a sharp bend would likely create a kink in regular tubing. It comes with a plastic insert and clamps to secure an inter-tube connection.

EK-Pro Tubing 10/17 mm Reinforced EPDM Preformed 45°/90°
This durable matte black tubing is designed to withstand harsh conditions for very long periods. It offers an exceptional lifespan as it can resist UV, ozone, and heat exposure for many years, while its thick rubber walls prevent the coolant from evaporating. Special nylon reinforces the tube wall, preventing kinks and allowing the preformed angle shape. It can be cut if only a piece of it will be used, depending on user requirements.
