    Thermalright makes the very best in air cooling solutions. If their water blocks are half as good in terms of quality and performance as their air coolers, I don't think we need to worry about them being like koolance

    I say that thermalright doesn't waste any R&D money on crappy waterblocks, and sticks to their kicka$$ aircoolers instead.

    If it is full copper, and if it has good internals, the block may be great.

    The base is copper, so it's "full copper.." but yeah, we need internal pix!

    * High-performance supermicro-channel design increasing volume and speed of flow, in direct contact with copper base
    * Tight and sturdy mounting mechanism tailored to the specs of gaming motherboards
    * Quick and easy installation
    * All copper block and lid for minimal oxidation effect and erosion
    Well I think they mean business... at least they are telling us who their intended customer base is.. "Gamers"

    Eek... Not sure if that's going to allow water to drip through, Let alone restrict flow.


    Of course those pictures are not enough to make any assumptions.


    EDIT: Some other Computex pictures of TR WC products...



    An Apparent picture of the block in action! With what appears to be spaghetti painted bronze used as a passive radiator:



    Closeup:



    The Spagetti radiator:





    A Spagetti Rad for "Vide game console"... Looks like they will be chalanging Koolance in the Xbox360 cooling Dept:




    And PS3:





    Any word on these "Spaghetti" radiators that Thermalright is designing? I wonder if, During the manufacturing process, They throw the radiator against the wall and see if it sticks; So as to make sure it's done.

    Or perhaps it's not actually made of spaghetti; Who knows.

    I'm really interested in what Thermalright can offer. They've basically owned the air cooling sector. At least its an all copper solution without any alu so they're off to a good start. Anyone have the release date on this?

    I'm actually more interested in their water cooling kit for the Xbox360.

    Meh, care to guess what it is barbed for? Looks like 1/4 to me.

    May be a damn good for 1/4 barb.. But, it's 1/4 barb.

    L64 x W48 x H17mm

    Take a look at the pick with the dimensions in mind, it's tiny.

    edit:took a second look.... May be 3/8. Still, it freaking small.

    WTF? Innovatek Plug-On Tank-o-Matics designed for Eheims work as long as the pump barb is 1/2" OD? Or is it a modified pump designed to work with it?

    When a review comes along it will be interesting to see how it does.

    I hope it does well, always good to have more competition driving innovation.

    Looking forward to results.

    edit: What aluminum in DDCs? The aluminum oxide in the ceramic?

    Thermalright's site says "All copper block and lid for minimal oxidation effect and erosion"

    Looks like a black nickel plate finish on the "copper" top to me.

    I wonder how it would work as a chipset block even though it's a cpu block. it looks like it could be used as one.
