Globalwin Jefi Watercooling Kit Reviewed

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the staying-cool dept.

shockNZ writes "[H]ardOCP has reviewed what appears to be a first in PC watercooling - an 'open reservoir evaporative cooling system.' The Globalwin Jefi has a radically different design to most systems on the market. The reservoir is open at the top, and utilizes something akin to a showerhead in order to rain the incoming hot water from the PC down onto a floating heatsink. Perhaps surprisingly, it demonstrated excellent performance and low noise levels - and as a bonus, the reservoir can be used as an aquarium."

    Hasn't open reservoir evaporative been done many times before, also called a bong? Granted it probably hasn't been done exactly this way, people have been bong cooling for years - its just a little forgotten.

      I know the above got modded as funny, but it really does exist - http://www.overclockers.com/articles389/ . Bong cooling hasn't been that popular in recent years however, seeing as people usually want a sexier way to watercool their PC.
