Famous power supply manufacturer Enermax has just announced the company’s first water cooling solution, on its official website. This is a closed loop system that looks very similar to other products from Asetek and Antec.
Water cooling is quite a risky initiative when it comes to water-sensitive environments like computers and electronics. A decade ago, powerful water cooling solutions provided a clear cooling performance lead over air cooling solutions at the time. Now, with the advent of high-quality thermal interface materials (TIM), copper heatpipes and large cooling fans, water cooling rarely demonstrates any kind of superiority when it comes to end user solutions.
The main problem besides the obvious risk is the pricing, as water cooling solutions are usually two to five times more expensive than even the best air cooling solutions. We welcome Enermax’ initiative and we hope for more competition on the water cooling front resulting in better performance, reliability and lower prices.
