Morgan Stanley estimates that the cooling cost per rack will rise from $49,860 for Nvidia’s GN300 NVL72 to $55,710 for the Vera Rubin NVL144 due to hotter Vera CPUs and Rubin GPUs that require pricier $400 cold plates and more advanced liquid cooling systems.
Engineers from the University of California, San Diego, have developed a new membrane evaporative cooling solution that has achieved record-breaking cooling performance. It could be a key solution for cooling Nvidia's future Feynman GPUs rated at over 4,000 watts of power consumption.
The Tryx Panorama SE 360 catches the eye with a stunning 6.7-inch display. We’ve tested it against Thermalright’s Wonder Vision UB to see how well it stacks up against the curved-screen cooler competition.
Cooler Master’s 3DHP heatpipes promise to be the biggest evolution for cooling in years. Do they deliver? We tested the Hyper 212 3DHP with AMD’s Ryzen 9 9950X to determine if Cooler Master’s heatpipes live up to the hype.
An investigation revealed that the popular low-cost Amech SGT-4 thermal paste is a chemically reactive PDMS-based compound containing that releases acetic acid, produces a vinegar odor, corrodes copper surfaces, and even creates ant holes on surfaces.
Frore Systems's LiquidJet coldplate uses semiconductor-style metal wafer fabrication and 3D short-loop jet microstructures to double cooling density and cut pressure loss fourfold, setting the stage for multi-kilowatt AI GPUs.
Famous German overclocker Der8auer tests spray cooling, a cooling solution used in supercomputers, on a Ryzen 7 9800X3D with decent results. The chip was able to run through Cinebench R23 successfully without overheating.
Microsoft has proposed a breakthrough cooling method using microfluidic channels etched directly into the silicon die, which cuts peak chip temperatures by up to 65% and outperforms cold plates by up to 3 times.
Thermaltake has just unveiled a new feature coming to its MagFloe Ultra lineup of AIO liquid coolers, called "AI Forge." This will allow you to whip up custom backgrounds for the screen on these coolers with just a prompt, right from within the TT Plus ARGB 3.0 software, without the need for any third-party apps.
Cooler Master is updating its iconic lineup of Hyper 212 coolers with its proprietary 3D Heatpipe tech. Hyper 212 3DHP, therefore, has two trident-like heatpipes running through its finstack that dissipate heat more evenly while costing the same. They will come in two flavors: Black and ARGB, and will be backed with 5-year warranties.
Noctua announced its first-ever mainstream AIO liquid cooler back at Computex earlier this year, where it said it would launch sometime in the first quarter of 2026. Now, thanks to an updated roadmap, we know that it's planned for Q2 2026. Noctua's AIO will be based on Asetek's G8 V2 pump design.
We tested the Proteus 360 AIO, from cooling newcomer Sudokoo, with Intel’s i7-14700K and AMD’s Ryzen 9 9950X3D. This AIO has many desirable features, but it’s not cheap.
Rising power demands from AI GPUs like Nvidia's Blackwell and future Rubin and Feynman processors are pushing data centers beyond air and cold-plate cooling, making immersion cooling appear inevitable within a few years despite high costs and complexity. But is the industry ready?
Sama steps into the air-cooling game with the A60E, an effective low-noise dual-tower air cooler. We’ve tested it with Intel’s i7-14700K and AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
