Watercooling Drifting Mainstream

Posted by timothy on from the drifting-on-logs-of-press-releases dept.

pacc writes "With Prescott said to dissipate 103 W and the dual Apple G5 playing in the same league, air cooling seems less than sensible. Nikkei Electronics has an article about watercoolers getting standardized by Hitachi. A technology pioneered by a NEC desktop last May."

    Is that the most unreadable butt-ugly font ever or what?!?

    I can't even read the damn article. WTF?

    Specifically the water-cooling module consists of a water-cooling jacket, named "Microchannel Heatsink," featuring efficient heat exchange and a pump, named "EK Pump," to generate higher exit pressure by applying higher voltage to ions in cooling fluid. Their first-generation product is designed for achieving a cooling capacity of a total of 200W and coping with a hot spot with a heat density of 500w/cm2.

    Ions in the cooling fluid? Ahh... am I missing something?
