Deepcool's new Liquid Cooled PSU - CES 2016

[killers993]

The name of it alone makes me not want to buy it. Gamer storm sounds like one of those psu's that are really cheap and like to take out motherboards.

I hope they are using non-conductive coolant, imagine if it sprung a leak.

doesn't matter, all coolant will become conductive over time. The non-conductive stuff is non-conductive out of the bottle, not months later

As @ICantThinkOfAnyGoodName stated that is only how efficient the PSU is in the conversion of AC power to DC power. That doesn't have anything to do with quality. You can buy an 80+ titanium PSU from a garbage manufacturer that will die before you have an 80+ PSU die from a good manufacturer. 

There testing is based on load, if it fails it does not get that rating. Yes it indicates efficiency, but if a psu fails before passing, it does not get the 80 plus rating.

For a 650W unit, makes little sense. Now, if you're operating at 1500W, even with an 80+ Titanium unit you'll have to deal with 150W of waste heat from the PSU. That's a lot of heat for a PSU to deal with, which means a noisier fan. Then, it might make sense to liquid cool some components if you want a quiet rig.

Does that thing not have a radiator? I don't see one in the pics anywhere.

If it doesn't create enough heat to warrant a radiator then why the hell even bother with such an over-the-top cooling system?

 

While it sure is unique it is also horrendously expensive and completely pointless.

The real question is can I turn into a teenage mutant ninja turtle if I drink it.

[BOT Edward]

Thats cool and stupid. But the biggest question I have is who is the manufacturer of the PSU it self. Seasonic? No one want's to buy a bomb.

At least you could say your PC is da bomb kek

 

Seriously though, the only people who would ever get this are enthusiasts.

CWT... As outlined in the post.

You're still missing the point. 80+ is NOT a component or build quality rating system. It rates the efficiency of alternating current to direct current conversion. I could go into my garage and fabricate a PSU that meets an 80+ standard efficiency level but that does not make it a safe or reliable power supply. I don't know if I can make this any simpler.....

Does anyone actually ever need to watercool their PSUs? :huh:

Silent pc's (or as close to silent as possible)
