Liquid Cooler Lineup: Intel, Corsair, MainGear Square Off @ HotHardware

[news 28]

Over the last few years, we've seen an increasing number of liquid coolers

positioned as high-end alternatives to traditional heatsink+fan

combinations. This has been particularly true in the boutique market, where

a number of manufacturers now offer liquid coolers in one form or another.

 

 

The kits we're looking at today are a far cry from the water coolers

enthusiasts have been building for years. DIY water coolers typically

involve separate reservoirs and external pumps. The systems we've tested

contain significantly less fluid and use small pumps directly integrated

into the cooling block.

 

 

Integrated all-in-one kits may not offer the theoretical performance of a

high-end home-built system, but they're vastly easier to install and

require virtually no maintenance. The tradeoffs are more than fair,

provided that the coolers perform as advertised.
