Corsair's New Cooling Product

[Hipstair]

Corsair's new cooling product is not a cooler or a fan... It's a gpu bracket for a hydro series AIO Liquid Cooler and it's being called the Corsair HG10. Is it just me, or does this sound a lot like an existing product from NZXT that's been on the market for months.

NZXT makes the G10. These things are kinda dumb IMO but they are good for cheaper watercooling on a GPU

I am about to buy one of these for my 290x... either the NZXT or this, depending on how the ram cooling is on this new one.

 

I wish i could drop 450 on a loop (cpu+gpu) but its just so hard to justify.

G10 cant cool vram efficiently unlike this one i heard

I really want whoever did that review on the G10 that showed the massive lack of ram cooling to do one of those tests on this. That would legitimately sell this for me.

More products like this is good for competition, for both price and driving performance.

Would be cool if someone then made an AIO liquid cooler that included a bracket for a GPU and a bracket for CPU. The true AIO liquid cooler for single GPU systems.

true, but you can easily buy extra heatsinks for vram/vrm

 

there is ~9mm (height) between the g10 and pcb

The biggest issue is the lack of support this has for cards

Time to find a sexy case to fit two h100i

Third post I've seen on this. And the others had more than this. Whatever.

 

I just hope Corsair allows compatibility with more than just Corsair Hydro Series products. Like NZXT did with Kraken Series products.

Neat, Nice to be able to have another easier version of a water cooled GPU without a custom loop.

I have a g10. Anyone who claims it's coming off the vram or vrm is insubstantial is wrong. You put heatsinks on them and it cools them better than quite a few non reference coolers.

So where can I buy this thing.  I thought it was suppose to be out by now.

Looks good.

I believe in Logan's video with them they mentioned August. So a few more weeks now.

The key here being that you have to put them in. They should come with the kraken because most people buying this product aren't power users but just regular folk who would consider this and an AIO as an option. Frankly it's quite an oversight on NZXT no matter how you look at ti.

[EChondo]

I remember back when TTT was custom making these for people, then sold the design to NZXT.

Looks like Corsair if wising up for the potential to these. It's good if you have a single GPU, but if you have a high end GPU and CPU setup, you might as well do full on watercooler at that point.

Which is fine because this is a month-old thread.
