iBUYPOWER To Offer Free Liquid Cooling On All Compatible Desktop Systems
iBUYPOWER to move towards full adoption of liquid cooling on desktop systems
El Monte, CA – December 31, 2009 – iBUYPOWER, a leading innovator of gaming PCs, is excited to announce it is now offering liquid CPU cooling on all compatible desktop systems, including iBUYPOWER’s signature system Chimera II, at no additional charge in an effort to make liquid cooling more accessible to every customer.. The iBUYPOWER liquid cooling solution features a heat-dissipating 120mm radiator with a water block/pump combination and is the perfect fit for a gamer looking for an affordable overclockable rig. iBUYPOWER will also continue to offer the Asetek 240mm liquid cooling solution on all of its Paladin XLC units at no additional charge.“We embrace new technologies and incorporate them into our builds to offer our customers the best gaming systems possible,” said Darren Su, Vice President of iBUYPOWER. “Liquid cooling has evolved to the point of becoming the standard in our industry and we believe it has become an essential component of competitive gaming. We want to make sure that this technology is accessible to every single one of our users.”
iBUYPOWER’s offer is set to expand the availability of liquid cooling to every computer user, placing iBUYPOWER’s systems at the forefront of technological innovation and value. Liquid cooled systems run cooler and more reliably than air-cooled systems, extending the lifespan of parts and expanding overclocking headroom.
Gamers looking to get the most out of their liquid cooled systems can take advantage of the iBUYPOWER Labs’ Power Drive Overclocking Service. iBUYPOWER is a two-time winner of Intel’s “Most Innovative Desktop Solution” award at the Intel Solutions Summit, and offers other innovative iBUYPOWER exclusive products and services developed in the iBUYPOWER Labs, including the Harmony sound reduction system, the Internal USB Expansion System, and is the first gaming PC builder to adapt Asetek’s 240mm radiator liquid cooling system. iBUYPOWER also offers its Specialized Advanced Packaging System with expanding foam inserts to prevent damage during shipping.

Anyone have personal experience with iBUYPOWER? My own unscientific research (http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=ibuypower+rocks&word2=ibuypower+sucks) seems positive. |

I see water cooling as the next logical step in the advancement of technology for high end computers. Faster CPU's need to dissipate more heat and depend on normalized temps to function correctly, even if they're on smaller dies, using less power. Water cooling achieves this without undue noise and is effective as can be. As you know, the system that I won here on HotHardwre.com has an Asetek LCLC (low cost liquid cooling) water cooler on the CPU and it's keeping the i7 870 at under 50C no matter what I'm doing with the computer. The system is OC'd to 3.88GHz. So it works well. I have ordered the Corsair H50 Water cooler for my other system and it should be here next week. I expect good results with it on my Phenom-II 940 system. The Corsair branded cooler is made for them by Asetek and they are essentially identical hardware. I don't get into extreme Overclocking with my computers so I can't attest to these low cost water systems being sufficient for extreme OC'ing. Adding the requirement to cool your GPU and Chipset as well as your CPU and these units will probably fall short in this area. But they do cool the crap out of a cpu. |
