ASETEK is about to release to the world its new nice and small water-cooler that can take as much as 250W of heat dissipation out of the CPU or other water-cooled part. It is a project that company worked hard on for a very long time.

The Quad, Octo and Hexa CPUs with four, eight or sixteen cores will simply need a good and quiet way to cool down. Here is the answer to the CPU industry's prayers.

Asetek calls it Low Cost Liquid Cooling and it targets many audiences mostly OEMs and ODMs. It is an efficient way to cool the PC and it's quiet at the same time.

You can check the document with more details here but the beauty of this cooler is that it support various CPUs and platforms and it can even be used in gaming consoles, which are getting noisier all the time, plus small form-factor PCs, Digital home PCs and of course the high-end gaming machines.

It looks impressive and it will officially be revealed and demonstrated at Intel's IDF, the big CPU show that starts tomorrow. The Live demonstration includes a micro ATX Digital Home system powered with Conroe-based Core 2 Duo system with its noise reduced from 34 dBA to less than 25 dBA (equal to bedroom ambient). ยต
