Why not?
For those of you who remember Home Improvement, youll recall that Tim "The Toolman" Taylor never once asked why he should mod a lawn mower into a hot rod, instead living by a philosophy of Hey, why not? And so it is with DeepCool, which brought a liquid cooled power supply to CES.
Its a prototype that DeepCool is experimenting with, not selling, at least not just yet. The prototype is an 80 Plus Gold 650W unit that doesnt have a cooling fan. It also lacks the foundation for a liquid cooling setup, like a reservoir or pump. What it does have are two connectors to integrate the PSU into your liquid cooling loop, and presumably water blocks inside for the toasty parts.
At this polnt, DeepCool is gauging interest to see if theres a viable market. Check it out below and feel free to share your thoughts on the concept:
DeepCool also brought along a new liquid cooled case, the Genome. It comes pre-configured with a 360mm radiator setup installed up top and a CPU water block that dangles inside.
Another neat feature of the case is the ability to install your graphics card sideways so that the heatsink/fan faces outward. Its made possible through a PCI-E ribbon cable that DeepCool will sell with the case.
DeepCool says the Genome will retail for about $250.
