Immersion Cooling
On the present flooring, the corporate confirmed off a setup that provides 50 liters of “immersion cooling” inside their new IX700 case. Immersion cooling implies that the system is in liquid. The liquid is PA2, which is without doubt one of the extra economical options, however continues to be costly. Thermaltake tells us it is between $20 to $30 per liter.
The liquid is piped by way of 2 gigantic pipes, which Thermaltake tells us is rated for 20 bar. That’s insane. It then connects to an enormous 4-radiator system. Total, it’s a showcase for an enterprise answer, however it’s tremendous cool.
The PC had its CPU, an Intel Xeon w9-3495X, and GPU each at 100% load. CPU core temperature clocked in at about 60 levels C and the GPU was about 64 levels C. We estimate that the room the pc was in felt about 23 levels C.
The system is working 4 pumps and 4 radiators utilizing a 4x420mm setup which can be 64mm thick. Thermaltake is considering that its immersion cooling setup will probably be a build-to-order enterprise answer. Taking a more in-depth take a look at the radiators, they felt heat once we put our palms subsequent to them.
The system makes use of dielectric fluid, which implies it’s non conductive.
The hoses for the system appear overkill and we don’t know what trade they arrive from.
View 390 Air
The View 390 Air is a $150 case. The corporate is considering together with 2 followers for that value, however the firm continues to be deciding between providing 2 followers within the entrance or within the again. In our opinion, Thermaltake ought to present the 2x200mm followers within the entrance as customers are much less more likely to have already got these.
The case’s glass facet panel gives a strong wall all the way in which across the case. The glass measures 4-5mm thick, which may be very giant glass. Apparently, closing off the highest panel can work higher for CPU thermals typically. The reason being that if you push air in, it’s not capable of escape by way of the highest.
There’s a display that’s mounted above the motherboard, which is optionally available. When you don’t purchase the display model, there’s only a metal plate there as a substitute.
The case has spots for 3 sunken 120mm followers on the backside and room for 3 followers on the facet. We do like seeing the choice for two followers within the again when there’s room for it, however it does make the case taller.
TR100
The corporate confirmed off a number of totally different coloration SKUs of the TR100, which is a case that’s already out available on the market.
TR200 and TR300
Thermaltake additionally confirmed off its TR200 micro-ATX case. It’s imagined to be $80.
The TR300, in the meantime, is a $100 case.
Neither case has a riser, which implies the GPU is often put in. Each instances use a more moderen TFT show panel on the entrance, which Thermaltake says presents higher brightness and sharper decision than their prior panels.
The corporate additionally confirmed off a prototype wooden entrance panel.
Trying contained in the TR300, we are able to see loads of Yeston-inspired advertising and marketing materials on the pump block. As well as, the case additionally has a closed-off facet close to its entrance that tries to obscure the facility provide and its cables as a result of the PSU is mounted to the entrance and is rotated on its facet. Sadly, this design does restrict choices for consumption followers within the entrance. The case depends on backside consumption followers and a few on the facet. Once more, sadly, the underside of the TR300 isn’t that elevated although the TR200 does have extra room to breathe, which we favored seeing.
Thermaltake is a Q3 launch for each instances.
Mine Dice
The font and aesthetics of the Mine Dice would possibly look acquainted, however is legally distinct… The Mine Dice is a cooler block with 4-sided screens, which incorporates the highest and three sides. It sits on high of a VRM fan and RAM fan.
One suggestions we supplied was that there was no vent on the north facet to permit air to hit the VRM from this angle.
Internally, the block cowl has some slats. The unit we noticed solely was capable of get in air by way of one facet, however we checked out a extremely early prototype. Customers can orient the Mine Dice to no matter place they need.
There’s a pair challenges for Thermaltake to beat right here. The primary of which entails software program, notably if you wish to attempt to hyperlink the screens in any approach. The unit we noticed at Computex had a personality transferring from one display to the following. The opposite essential problem pertains to value, particularly because it involves controlling the screens. To deal with this, Thermaltake has gone to a single IC to regulate all 4 screens. Regardless, the 360mm mannequin, which is the one one we all know of in the meanwhile, nonetheless finally ends up round $350. After we requested them in regards to the technological challenges of making an attempt to drive 4 screens by way of a liquid cooler, the corporate stated it was “not making it $600,” which is a very legitimate reply.
Thermaltake is concentrating on an August launch for the Mine Dice.
Venture Edge
Thermaltake additionally confirmed off an early prototype of its Venture Edge set of followers, which presents a sequence of progressing screens. The corporate thinks that is the place the way forward for followers is likely to be. So as to add some context right here, Lian Li makes a bunch of cash promoting followers with LCDs on them. Now the path is likely to be LCDs on the facet of followers.
