First Retail Water-Cooled DDR2 Memory Tested

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the everything-is-better-wet dept.

Twistedmelon writes "We've all heard of water cooling for processors and even graphics processors, in today's high end PCs. However, a water cooled memory module is something that hasn't been done until now. OCZ Technology recently announced their line of Flex XLC Water-Cooled RAM, with its integrated heat-spreaders that can be connected to any standard water cooling system. The memory operates much cooler under load with tight timings at DDR2-800 speeds. For those with water-cooling setups, these DIMMs could easily be tapped into an existing system allowing for quiet and robust cooling for your system memory as well."

    Water cooling hardware will not become a widely used technology. This seems silly. Certainly there can be an easyer way.
