Fremont, California, January 27, 2005: Corsair Memory, Inc., a global
leader in ultra-performance DDR memory modules for PC gamers and
enthusiasts, today announced a water cooling kit that enables greater
overclocking performance by cooling Intel and AMD processors far more
efficiently than conventional heatsink/fan air cooling units.
Branded simply “COOL,” this kit was designed for ultimate ease of
installation; it can be installed in virtually any system in about an hour,
with no need for power tools. The included RadBox allows the fan/radiator
assembly to be mounted on 80mm, 100mm, or 120mm chassis fan openings. The
kit is available in two flavors:
- CWC100-1000 supports Pentium 4 Socket 478 and Athlon 64 CPUs
- CWC100-1001 supports Pentium 4 LGA-775 and Athlon XP processors.
To develop this kit, Corsair performed exhaustive testing on virtually every
water cooling component available, then selected the combination of
components that, together, delivered the top results. The complete kit
includes a 120mm fan, radiator, CPU cold block with factory-clamped tubing,
bay reservoir, 12-volt DC pump, and all necessary mounting hardware. Each
component is the best in its class.
According to Eric Ackerson, Corsair COOL Product Manager, “this kit delivers
impressive cooling efficiency that allowed Corsair Engineers to reach
remarkable overclock speeds. But it’s deceptively quiet.”
Both kits are shipping now to Corsair resellers worldwide, and will be
available for retail prices under $240. More information on this product can
